{{Use dmy dates|date=February 2017}}Postage stamps are issued by the Korea Stamp Corporation.[1] North Korea issues copious amounts of stamps.[1] Since the 1970s, the country has outproduced South Korea in terms of issuance.{{sfn|King|2011|p=193}} The stamps tend to portray patriotic and nationalist themes and are used as a form of propaganda,{{sfn|King|2011|p=205}} but some of them have little connection with the country.[1]

Stamps are issued by the Korea Stamp Corporation. The country has been a member of the Fédération Internationale de Philatélie since 15 June 1965. There is a museum, the Korean Stamp Museum, dedicated to philately in the country.[1]

History

The first stamps of North Korea were issued on 12 March 1946:[2] Rose of Sharon and Samson Rock.[3] Stamps prior to 1974 dealt primarily with subjects relating specifically to North Korea, its foundation, Kim Il-sung and other patriotic themes. After 1974, in a bid to bring more hard currency into the country, North Korea began issuing stamps with wide-ranging themes (such as Joan of Arc, airships, sports and wildlife) and using English descriptions.[4]

Wording on the stamps is mostly in Korean. The term "DPR Korea" is written in English.
