The British Philatelic Bulletin was the official publication of the Royal Mail aimed at stamp collectors.

The Bulletin was first published in September 1963, not long after the formation of the Philatelic Bureau on 1 May, and was a monthly publication almost from the start.

Early editions were simple publications, type-written on Bureau notepaper in A4 size.

The Royal Philatelic Society London has a complete archive of this publication and its index is available online.
