Postage stamps and postal history of Cuba

This is a survey of the postage stamps and postal history of Cuba.
Cuba is an island country in the Caribbean Sea. The nation of Cuba consists of the main island of Cuba, the Isla de la Juventud, and several archipelagos. Havana is the largest city in Cuba and the country's capital.
==First stamps and postal stationery==
The first stamps of Cuba were joint issues with Puerto Rico, issued in April, 1855.〔Edifil; ''Catálogo Especializado de Sellos de Cuba, Tomo I (1855-1958)'', 2nd Ed.; Madrid, 2002 (in Spanish). ISSN 84-95019-08-6〕 These stamps are referred to as the ("Antilles" ). At first, Isabella II had her portrait on all regular issues until her abdication in 1868. Cuba had separate stamps from 1873.〔Rossiter, Stuart & John Flower. ''The Stamp Atlas''. London: Macdonald, 1986, p.148. ISBN 0-356-10862-7〕 Postage stamps continued to be labeled only "ULTRAMAR" (overseas) until the word CUBA appeared for the first time in 1877. The portrait of Alfonso XII adorned the stamps from 1876 until 1880, some three years after his posthumously born successor, Alfonso XIII, assumed the throne under Regency status, and had his portrait instead. This depicted a baby whose hairline was considerably receded and thus earned the irreverent nickname of ''el pelón'' (baldie). Finally, in 1898, a youth with tousled hair appears.
Postal cards for Cuba were printed in Spain and sent to their colonies in 1878.〔Littrell, Robert, Ed.; ''Postal Cards of Spanish Colonial Cuba, Philippines and Puerto Rico'', UPSS, 2010; ISBN 978-0-9800112-4-1〕 With the war of independence for Cuba, the United States intervened from 1898 to 1902. At that time, stamped envelopes and newspaper wrappers became available to the residents of Cuba.〔Krieger, George T.; ''The Postal Stationery of the Possessions and Administrative Areas of the United States of America''; United Postal Stationery Society, 2009, ISBN 978-0-9800112-3-4.〕
