Computer Files
Several bicycle stamp collectors have endeavored to compile lists of the known bicycle
stamps of the world. The files below are a few such efforts. They vary
considerably in scope, accuracy and completeness. Despite this, they are each of
considerable value in that each can be used to ascertain the accuracy of the others.
Anyone wishing to contribute other lists is greatly encouraged to do so. Lists
compiled in languages other than English are especially welcome.
