This is a great place to learn about postal history, and an even better place to go to the post office! Pretty much never a line, and the friendliest postal workers in the biz. Just be sure to get there before 2:30 when they close, and plan to pay with cash or check, no cards.

This sweet little building has a huge heart inside! I never knew that there was such a place until I had some old stamps to donate.It was such a great treat to visit this museum and have the tour. I know my stamps found another life there and it makes me so happy

I go here every month for a local Tucson Postcard Club meeting. Interesting exhibits and ephemera on display inside. Looks very student friendly - areas of interest for most ages. W/C accessible. EZ parking in the back when its open.

If you want to learn about postal history this is the place to visit. Wonderful volunteers teaching our youth how our mailing system was created and about stamps through history

Non-profit donations help support stamp & cover collecting. Great reference library. You can spend hours here.

This place is delightful, but is not quite a museum. Volunteers work here to organize a huge stamp collection (donated) and send out cool stamp related lessons to schools for free. You can come here to have stamp relayed questions answered, purchase all kinds of stamps (foreign and domestic, or themed collections!), and get an individual tour of their stamps, lessons, and historic postal equipment. I loved it.

The historical significance of our postal service system is grossly undervalued in our society both historically and currently. The educational contributions of this Foundation is not only admirable and accessible but certainly must be effective. I hope word is spread fast and far about this group, I found this tour and the volunteers to be knowledgeable, personable and sincerely generous. Id like to thank you for the wonderful experience my father-in-law and I had today.
