The American Philatelist, published by the American Philatelic Society, is one of the world's oldest[citation needed] philatelic magazines still in operation; its first issue having appeared in January 1887.
It has the appearance of a standard glossy color magazine, typically running about 100 pages per issue.
As the house organ, there are monthly departments covering APS news and activities, a president's column, and so forth.
The core of the magazine consists of 5-10 articles on subjects related to philately, ranging from highly technical subjects such as "Accra overprints on Gold Coast stamps", to the fictional stamps and envelopes that have been used as movie props.
