Stamps of Ascension Island
This island was discovered by a Portuguese navigator in 1501 on Ascension Day.
Before 1922, St. Helena's stamps were mainly used. After this date, the island issued its own stamps as a British colony and St. Helena dependency. Ascension Island is currently a British overseas territory.
Ascension Island now issues many thematic series, including the local fauna.
The first souvenir sheet was issued in 1969 with the theme of the coat of arms of the Royal Navy.
