NOTE: A new master index of all Bulletins from 1937 to 2022 has been created by MPHS member Russ Carter. Please refer to that document when searching for back issues.

This older document is an index of all issues of the Bulletin of the Military Postal History Society, from 1937 to 2004; the index includes issues of the predecessor newsletters, which operated under different names.

It is probably best to search through this index using the 'find' capability of your browser. Links are provided below for each iteration of the Bulletin. For instance, the first heading below is for the War Cover Philatelist, the newsletter of the original War Cover Club.
