Mexico Archeology and Architecture Stamps
From 1950 to 1975, Mexico issued a series of small format
definitive stamps with similar basic design for surface
mail. Although this series is known by philatelists as the
"Architecture and Archaeology" series, it included other
subjects such as the centennial of the Mexican constitu-
tion. Many of stamps in this series were reprinted over
the years, with differences in color, perforation and pa-
per types. A listing of the stamps in this series inb table
