Philately

Until 1903, these are the stamps of the British Leeward Islands, which are used in Anguilla. From 1903 to 1952, those of the colony Saint Kitts and Nevis prevail and the name of Anguilla is printed in caption only stamps in 1952. Nevertheless, in 1950, stamps are overloaded for the previous tercentenary of British colonization of Anguilla.

In 1967, during the uprising for independence in Anguilla, stamps of St. Christopher-Nevis-Anguilla are overloaded "Independent Anguilla". In 1971, stamps issued locally bear the title of "Commissioner of Her Majesty in Anguilla." The first stamps to bear the legal name of Anguilla are issued for Easter 1981 and represent characters from the Walt Disney Company. The portrait the British sovereign or his royal monogram appear on stamps of Anguilla.

Within the postal service in Anguilla, a committee selects the topics philatelic program whose tones are then approved by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office and the British sovereign. The printer is selected by the postal service (House of Questa and Cartor since the 2000s). Some agents have philatelic specific links to Anguilla, as the British company John Lister in 1967.
