Postage stamps and postal history of Santander
![](../I/m/1905_stamp_of_Santander.jpg)
A 1905 stamp of Santander.
Like other Colombian states, Santander issued its own postage stamps between 1884 and 1905, with a provisional stamp appearing in 1907. The designs were based on the state's coat of arms, except for a 50c stamp in 1904 featuring a locomotive. All of the stamps of Santander are readily available.
