The group of Canada Post ephemera is made of pamphlets such as mail order product catalogues, from the Canada Post philatelic service (1970s and 1980s), about 150 new issue promotional cards (1990s), several booklets on the story of Canada Post, early issues for the Canada Post Details magazine (1991-1992).
