The Page 2 link below connects the reader to the next excerpt from the 1954 article by the first president of the Vatican Philatelic Society, William Wonneberger. Today's entry reviews the stamp issue for the coronation of Pope Pius XII in 1939. The article first appeared in the book Vatican, published by the National Philatelic Museum in conjunction with the Vatican Marian Year Philatelic Exhibition, held at the Museum in September, 1954. We hope you enjoy this serial review of the early stamps issued by Vatican City.
