Stamps are a great way to learn about history, geography, culture, and economics in the Good Ole USA and around the world.  Stamps commemorate notable events (some good, some not so good) and historical figures (some good, some not so good).  Stamps highlight different countries’ exports, celebrate culture and contemporary events, familiarize us with foreign currencies, chronicle the outcomes of wars, and much more.  In short, stamps spark curiosity in collectors and can spur them to research more deeply those areas that interest them.

Soon, we plan to offer postage stamps for sale, as well as supplies.  For now, we are offering stamp supplies, such as hinges, mounts, tongs, album pages, and perforation gauges.  To test the philatelic interest of your youngsters, start with a low-cost worldwide stamp album, or build your own album with some blank pages and a three-ring binder.
