From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Green's Catalog of the Tuberculosis Seals, US National Christmas Seals is a seminal philatelic catalog written by Dick Green, a pioneer member of The Christmas Seal & Charity Stamp Society. Green began his work in the 1920s and portions first appeared as a series in , a stamp collecting weekly. In 1936 Green's TB Christmas Seal Catalog of the World was published by the Christmas Seal & Charity Stamp Society.

The Catalog is divided into three sections, US National TB Christmas Seals, US Local TB Christmas Seals, and Foreign TB Christmas Seals. Still in print, and greatly expanded; over the years, many volunteer editors have contributed to Green's work.
