The Postal History Foundation is a privately funded nonprofit and an IRS designated 501(c)(3) charitable organization and we are Staunch Supporters of the Donor Bill of Rights.

The Foundation is a hub of postal research and education in the southwest. While it maintains the largest and one of the finest facilities dedicated to postal history in the western United States, the Foundation is also the only philatelic museum that operates an extensive youth education program.

The Peggy J. Slusser library houses a collection of more than 25,000 books, journals, US Post Office and United States Postal Service (USPS) publications. These provide scholars with a worldwide range of philatelic literature. The collection maintains a special emphasis on the United States, and is a rich source of Civil War literature, memorabilia and ephemera. The library is recognized as one of the top 42 libraries in the United States as best architecturally designed for users.

Stamp Stories
The specialty post office sells every stamp in current issue in the nation (shhh! even those that you normally have to send away for). Along with the sale of stamps, the fully capable post office can handle any large post office functions. (Hint: You won't find a long line here!) Another sales outlet handles sales of collectible materials. Exhibits A turn of the century post office with authentic fittings illustrate the postal service on the frontier. Special exhibits that change periodically further interpret postal history for visitors.
