Between 1945 and the early 1990s, there were clearly no Tuvan stamps made. The
Soviet government produced a number of postcards and postal envelopes showing Tuva-related
topics. The postcards are the most difficult to find. (I've not been able to
pick up any of them yet...so if you've got 'em, give me a yell). The below is
probably close to complete, but I'd love to hear differently.

Some soviet-era picture postcards also showed Tuva related scenes, but there is
no catalog that could list all such postcards so I've no idea how many Tuvan related ones
exist.

I have one dealer in particular that I should thank for his great help in hunting down
the above...but I'm afraid to name him for fear you guys will buy the stuff I'm hunting
for before I get a chance. Thank you Vladimir! (I'll post his last name after
I get those postcards :-)
