Each stamp contains a number and the last name only for the pictured movie star. Thanks to Dan Calandriello for most of the information for these checklists and to Bob Richardson and Tina R. Snipes for additional names. Special thanks to Tom Gillis for providing almost complete checklists of all the sets.

The second group of Seein' Stars stamps were issued almost every day from January 1, 1938 through October 29, 1938 for 224 total black and white stamps.

The third group of Seein' Stars stamps were issued every Sunday from September 8, 1940 through August 2, 1942 for 100 total color stamps. Each stamp was produced in a single color, including pink, orange, yellow, purple, blue, green, and more.
