Contents Collecting History of stamp collecting Stamp collecting equipment Acquiring stamps ... edit Collecting Stamp collecting is not the same as philately , which is the study of stamps. A philatelist may, but does not have to, collect stamps. Many casual stamp collectors accumulate stamps for sheer enjoyment and relaxation without worrying about the tiny details. The creation of a large or comprehensive collection, however, may require some philatelic knowledge. Postage stamps are often collected for their historical value and geographical aspects and they are also collected for the many different subjects that have been depicted on them, ranging from ships, horses, birds, Kings Queens and Presidents. No matter what your interest, there are almost always stamps that will complement that interest. Stamp collectors are an important source of income for some countries who create limited runs of elaborate stamps designed mainly to be bought by stamp collectors. The stamps produced by these countries may exceed the postal needs of the countries, but may also feature attractive topical designs that many collectors would like to have in their stamp album.

Stamp Collecting ARI Charles, at the U.S. Post Office ceremony introducing the Ayn Rand stamp, you gave a short speech about stamp collecting with Miss Rand. Did she get you interested in stamps and collecting? CHARLES Actually, she revived my interest in stamps with the article she wrote for the Minkus Stamp Journal It got me into collecting stamps again, instead of just accumulating them. ARI How do you mean? CHARLES ARI How did you get involved with stamp collecting with Miss Rand? CHARLES It was gradual. My intent was to collect the dozen or so of her favorite stamps that were illustrated in the article, and to do no more than that. But once I had collected her page of stamps, I was completely in thrall. When I told her what I had done, she was delighted and encouraged me to continue. Soon after that, we became fellow collectors, in earnest. ARI What did this involve? CHARLES ARI Did she buy them from you? CHARLES Individual stamps, yes, but not whole albums. Our agreement was that I would deliver a few albums to her, she would select the stamps she needed, and I would then take back these albums and replace them with a few more. This went on for about a year and a half. She was scrupulous about keeping records and paying me for the stamps she bought. She carefully marked which stamps she had taken, or made a list. I kept a running account of what she owed me and would bill her from time to time. ARI How did you arrive at the price?

The aim of stamp collecting is simple; the more stamps you lick, the more sex you get. Contents Thrilling Pastime! Dangers Footnotes of history See Also ... edit Thrilling Pastime! The first part of stamp collecting is buying the stamp. My friend once travelled all the way to Madagascar to buy a rare stamp with a picture of Rosie O'Donell eating lard on it. He had to take out a loan from the bank, the satisfaction it gave him was immense. Don't, whatever you do, go to Tajikistan . They won't sell you any stamps there, and send you back out of the country with your right testicle sewn onto your forehead. Sticking the stamps is the really exciting part. You can use any sticky substance, but licking is always the best. Be careful though, some people from Surinam have been known to use semen to stick their stamps down. However, my 'friend' (is he worth it?) tells me that this is not the only way to obtain pleasure from stamp collecting. He once managed to acquire a rare Bolivian stamp by shagging the woman who owned it, in return for the stamp. Of course, my mate was twelve at the time, and the woman later turned out to be his
