My wife (bless her heart) and I just completed digitizing a complete run of The Quaker City Philatelist January 1886 through July 1894. This hobby periodical was published by Quaker City Philatelic Publishing Company (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania). These make for a great read on a winter day/evening offering insight into the tone and tenor of the hobby in the late 19th century. The issues contain not only informative information on the 'current' stamps and postal stationary but also some of the politics, drama, and gossip for the period.

These PDF downloads are fully searchable, the originals were generously contributed by Alan Warren.
