Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-23T20:31:22Z

PhantomSteve: /* 1976 */

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

== Breakdown ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers.

Grey rows identify years up to 1972 in which no issues were released. From 1973, following Isle of Man postal independence, at least one issue was released each year; a zero for these later years means that entries have not yet been added to this checklist. Decade subtotals cover the years shown, beginning with 1958 and ending with 2026.

This Mercury cover bears the four stamps issued on 26 May 1976 to mark the centenary of the [[wikipedia:en:Douglas Bay Horse Tramway|Douglas horse-tram service]]. The stamps were designed by J. H. Nicholson and printed by Courvoisier using photogravure.<ref name="SG">{{Cite Catalogue|author=Stanley Gibbons|title=Stanley Gibbons stamp catalogue|publisher=Stanley Gibbons|section=Isle of Man|page=202|catalogue=Stanley Gibbons|catalogue-number=80–83|notes=Issue details transcribed from the collector’s catalogue; edition and publication year not supplied.}}</ref>

The official information leaflet traces the tramway’s opening on 7 August 1876 and subsequent development. Its design descriptions identify the first double-decker tram near the Iron Pier, the toast-rack tram on Queen’s Promenade in 1890, the Upper Douglas horse-bus, and the Royal tram during the visit of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip on 2 August 1972.<ref name="leaflet">{{Cite|title=Douglas Horse-Trams Centenary|type=Issue information leaflet|publisher=Isle of Man Post Office Authority|notes=Double-sided leaflet supplied with the owned official cover.

The supplied reference photograph shows the Mercury design with the 5½p and 11p stamps in the top row and the 7p and 13p stamps below. This differs from the value order on the official cover.<ref name="cover-photo">{{Cite|title=Douglas Horse Trams Centenary — Mercury cover|type=Reference photograph|notes=Photograph supplied by the collector as an illustration of a wanted cover; not a scan of an owned example.}}</ref>

The stamp and leaflet descriptions above concern the shared issue. The individual stamp illustrations below are scans from the owned official cover, not from this wanted example.

== Technical and sales details ==

The catalogue records granite paper and perforation 11½. The information leaflet gives perforation 11½ × 11¾, a stamp size of 29 × 46.2 mm including perforations, five colours, and sheets of 25 arranged in five rows of five. Both perforation descriptions are retained because the sources differ.<ref name="SG" /><ref name="leaflet" />

The stamps were withdrawn from sale on 25 May 1977. Catalogue quantities sold were 627,083 for the 5½p, 480,417 for the 7p, 391,871 for the 11p and 389,604 for the 13p. These figures count individual stamps, not covers.<ref name="SG" />

This Cotswold cover bears the four stamps issued on 26 May 1976 to mark the centenary of the [[wikipedia:en:Douglas Bay Horse Tramway|Douglas horse-tram service]]. The stamps were designed by J. H. Nicholson and printed by Courvoisier using photogravure.<ref name="SG">{{Cite Catalogue|author=Stanley Gibbons|title=Stanley Gibbons stamp catalogue|publisher=Stanley Gibbons|section=Isle of Man|page=202|catalogue=Stanley Gibbons|catalogue-number=80–83|notes=Issue details transcribed from the collector’s catalogue; edition and publication year not supplied.}}</ref>

The official information leaflet traces the tramway’s opening on 7 August 1876 and subsequent development. Its design descriptions identify the first double-decker tram near the Iron Pier, the toast-rack tram on Queen’s Promenade in 1890, the Upper Douglas horse-bus, and the Royal tram during the visit of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip on 2 August 1972.<ref name="leaflet">{{Cite|title=Douglas Horse-Trams Centenary|type=Issue information leaflet|publisher=Isle of Man Post Office Authority|notes=Double-sided leaflet supplied with the owned official cover.

The stamps are arranged as 5½p and 7p above 11p and 13p.<ref name="cover-photo">{{Cite|title=Douglas Horse Trams Centenary — Cotswold cover|type=Reference photograph|notes=Photograph supplied by the collector as an illustration of a wanted cover; not a scan of an owned example.}}</ref>

The stamp and leaflet descriptions above concern the shared issue. The individual stamp illustrations below are scans from the owned official cover, not from this wanted example.

== Technical and sales details ==

The catalogue records granite paper and perforation 11½. The information leaflet gives perforation 11½ × 11¾, a stamp size of 29 × 46.2 mm including perforations, five colours, and sheets of 25 arranged in five rows of five. Both perforation descriptions are retained because the sources differ.<ref name="SG" /><ref name="leaflet" />

The stamps were withdrawn from sale on 25 May 1977. Catalogue quantities sold were 627,083 for the 5½p, 480,417 for the 7p, 391,871 for the 11p and 389,604 for the 13p. These figures count individual stamps, not covers.<ref name="SG" />

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-19T11:55:44Z

PhantomSteve:

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

See also [[Stamps and first day covers]], [[:Category:Isle of Man stamps and first day covers|Isle of Man stamps and first day covers]], and [[Isle of Man first day covers wanted|the Isle of Man wanted-cover list]].

== Breakdown ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers.

Grey rows identify years up to 1972 in which no issues were released. From 1973, following Isle of Man postal independence, at least one issue was released each year; a zero for these later years means that entries have not yet been added to this checklist. Decade subtotals cover the years shown, beginning with 1958 and ending with 2026.

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-19T11:48:21Z

PhantomSteve: /* 1960s */

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

== Breakdown ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers. A zero means that no entries have been added for that year yet. Decade subtotals cover the years shown, beginning with 1958 and ending with 2026.

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-19T11:39:43Z

PhantomSteve: /* 1971 */

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

See also [[Stamps and first day covers]], [[:Category:Isle of Man stamps and first day covers|Isle of Man stamps and first day covers]], and [[Isle of Man first day covers wanted|the Isle of Man wanted-cover list]].

== Breakdown ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers. A zero means that no entries have been added for that year yet. Decade subtotals cover the years shown, beginning with 1958 and ending with 2026.

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-19T11:34:52Z

PhantomSteve: /* Breakdown by decade */

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

== Breakdown ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers. A zero means that no entries have been added for that year yet. Decade subtotals cover the years shown, beginning with 1958 and ending with 2026.

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-19T11:33:53Z

PhantomSteve:

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

== Breakdown by decade ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers. A zero means that no entries have been added for that decade yet.

Starts one cover row in [[Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist]] and updates the year, decade and overall counters.

* First cover row in a yearly table: <nowiki>{{FDC checklist row|1970|first|year=1975}}</nowiki>
* First cover of a later issue group in that table: <nowiki>{{FDC checklist row|1970|new}}</nowiki>
* Another cover of the same issue: <nowiki>{{FDC checklist row|1970}}</nowiki>

The first parameter is the decade’s starting year. Supply year= on the first row of each yearly table; subsequent rows use that year automatically.

The first and new markers each count one issue; only new adds the double-line class. Every call counts one cover. Use once per cover row, replacing the ordinary row separator.

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-17T20:30:04Z

PhantomSteve: /* 2020s */

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

== Breakdown by decade ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers. A zero means that no entries have been added for that decade yet.

== The cover ==

The unaddressed Mercury envelope shows Independence Hall, Philadelphia, beneath an American bicentenary heading, with the Mercury imprint at lower left. An intact MS79 occupies the right side. Three circular Ramsey first-day cancellations dated 12 March 1976 are visible: two on the miniature sheet and one below it on the envelope. The printed explanatory text belongs to the cachet, not to the cancellation.<ref name="Christian-cover">{{Cite

The reverse and any accompanying material are not shown. The information-sheet value follows the collection’s agreed default, rather than establishing that the photographed example includes a leaflet.

The genuine stamp detail scans and the information sheet used below come from the [[Isle of Man – Bicentenary of American Revolution and Colonel William Christian Commemoration – Official stamp set cover – 1976]]. The stamp scans show the ordinary perforation-13½ versions, used only to illustrate the designs; they are not scans of this cover’s perforation-14 miniature-sheet stamps. No separate miniature-sheet scan is available for wiki illustration.

== Issue background ==

The issue commemorates the bicentenary of the [[wikipedia:en:American Revolution|American Revolution]] and Colonel [[wikipedia:en:William Christian (Virginia politician)|William Christian]]. The official information sheet relates his Manx ancestry through his father, Israel Christian, and describes his association with [[wikipedia:en:Patrick Henry|Patrick Henry]], Virginia politics and military service. It presents the four designs as stages in Christian’s life.<ref name="Christian-sheet">{{Cite

The ordinary stamps are perforated 13½; the information sheet states 13½ × 13½. The miniature sheet is perforated 14, stated as 14 × 14 on the sheet. The stated stamp size is 1.1 × 1.75 inches including perforations, approximately 27.94 × 44.45 mm in the printed order.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" /><ref name="Christian-sheet" />

Ordinary sheets contain 50 stamps in two panes of 25, each 5 × 5, with a gutter between panes. The catalogue lists plate numbers 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D, each ×4. These are production records, not plate markings identified on these individual examples.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" /><ref name="Christian-sheet" />

== Miniature sheet ==

The catalogue describes [[IM-SG-MS79|MS79]] as 150 × 90 mm and containing the four designs SG75–78. The information sheet gives 6 × 3½ inches, equivalent to 152.4 × 88.9 mm. Both stated sizes are retained with their sources rather than treated as exact equivalents. The miniature sheet has perforation 14, distinct from the ordinary stamps’ 13½.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" /><ref name="Christian-sheet" />

== Catalogue variety ==

The catalogue lists [[IM-SG-77a]], the 13p stamp with the black face value and inscriptions printed double. This entry is not an identification of the error on the cover shown.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" />

== Sales and withdrawal ==

The catalogue records stamp sales of 487,310 (5½p), 524,144 (7p), 558,348 (13p) and 424,728 (20p), and 209,367 miniature sheets. These are stamp and miniature-sheet sales, not numbers of covers produced or sold. Withdrawal from sale was on 11 March 1977; no separate sold-out or postal-invalidation date is supplied.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" />

== Stamps on this cover ==

The four stamps below form the intact miniature sheet [[IM-SG-MS79]]. The illustrations show the corresponding ordinary stamp designs and come from the owned stamp-set cover; their perforation differs from the sheet.

The stated stamp size is 1.1 × 1.75 inches including perforations, approximately 27.94 × 44.45 mm in the printed order.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" /><ref name="Christian-sheet" />

Ordinary sheets contain 50 stamps in two panes of 25, each 5 × 5, with a gutter between panes. The catalogue lists plate numbers 1A, 1B, 1C and 1D, each ×4. These are production records, not plate markings identified on these individual examples.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" /><ref name="Christian-sheet" />

== Miniature sheet ==

The catalogue describes [[IM-SG-MS79|MS79]] as 150 × 90 mm and containing the four designs SG75–78. The information sheet gives 6 × 3½ inches, equivalent to 152.4 × 88.9 mm. Both stated sizes are retained with their sources rather than treated as exact equivalents. The miniature sheet has perforation 14, distinct from the ordinary stamps’ 13½.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" /><ref name="Christian-sheet" />

== Catalogue variety ==

The catalogue lists [[IM-SG-77a]], the 13p stamp with the black face value and inscriptions printed double. This entry is not an identification of the error on the cover shown.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" />

== Sales and withdrawal ==

The catalogue records stamp sales of 487,310 (5½p), 524,144 (7p), 558,348 (13p) and 424,728 (20p), and 209,367 miniature sheets. These are stamp and miniature-sheet sales, not numbers of covers produced or sold. Withdrawal from sale was on 11 March 1977; no separate sold-out or postal-invalidation date is supplied.<ref name="SG2022-Christian" />

== Stamps on this cover ==

The photographed cover bears the complete ordinary stamp set, SG75–78.

== The cover ==

The unaddressed official envelope bears a standing frontiersman at left, the bicentennial emblem, American Revolution Bicentennial 1776–1976 lettering and the Isle of Man Post Office Authority official first day cover inscription. An intact MS79 is tied by two circular Douglas first-day cancellations dated 12 March 1976.<ref name="Christian-cover">{{Cite

The reverse and any accompanying material are not shown. The information-sheet value follows the collection’s agreed default, rather than establishing that the photographed example includes a leaflet.

The genuine stamp detail scans and the information sheet used below come from the [[Isle of Man – Bicentenary of American Revolution and Colonel William Christian Commemoration – Official stamp set cover – 1976]]. The stamp scans show the ordinary perforation-13½ versions, used only to illustrate the designs; they are not scans of this cover’s perforation-14 miniature-sheet stamps. No separate miniature-sheet scan is available for wiki illustration.

== Issue background ==

The issue commemorates the bicentenary of the [[wikipedia:en:American Revolution|American Revolution]] and Colonel [[wikipedia:en:William Christian (Virginia politician)|William Christian]]. The official information sheet relates his Manx ancestry through his father, Israel Christian, and describes his association with [[wikipedia:en:Patrick Henry|Patrick Henry]], Virginia politics and military service. It presents the four designs as stages in Christian’s life.<ref name="Christian-sheet">{{Cite

== Design and production ==

The catalogue credits John Waddington with design and [[wikipedia:en:Lithography|lithographic printing]]. The information sheet supplies the fuller credits Waddingtons Studio and John Waddington of Kirkstall Ltd. It specifies four colours and coated paper weighing 102 g/m².

Isle of Man First Day Cover Checklist

2026-10-17T19:48:21Z

PhantomSteve: /* 1975 */

This manually maintained checklist lists the Isle of Man covers recorded on PhantomWiki, including joint covers and the last-day British postal covers.

'''Work in progress:''' Covers are being added to this checklist using the Stanley Gibbons catalogue as a starting point. Additional cover designs and variations are being located and added as work progresses. The checklist is therefore not yet a complete record of all known covers.

'''Key:''' ☑ = owned; ☐ = wanted. These symbols are manually editable, not clickable checkboxes. Edit them in the page source when ownership changes. The generic Wanted image marks wanted covers without an uploaded front image. The generic Awaiting Scan image marks owned covers without an uploaded front scan. Both placeholders are used only on this checklist and are replaced by genuine front-cover images when available.

Covers are listed in ascending issue-date order. For the same issue and date, official covers come first, followed by official self-adhesive covers, then other covers alphabetically by producer. Covers with an unidentified producer follow those with a known producer. Double lines separate issue groups within each yearly table.

Dates follow the issue-date field on each cover page. A cancellation date may differ: the Cotswold postage due cover is listed under 1 September 1973, with its 10 September cancellation noted in the title column.

See also [[Stamps and first day covers]], [[:Category:Isle of Man stamps and first day covers|Isle of Man stamps and first day covers]], and [[Isle of Man first day covers wanted|the Isle of Man wanted-cover list]].

== Breakdown by decade ==

This breakdown counts only the issues and covers currently entered in this checklist. The checklist is a work in progress, so these figures do not represent every issue or cover that exists. An issue means one issue group in the checklist; different cover versions count as separate covers. A zero means that no entries have been added for that decade yet.
