Do We Want A Live Stamp Club In Our Midst
Lawrence Stamp News argues for a united effort by philatelists to form a live stamp club. The piece urges contribution from all collectors to advance the hobby, educate young collectors, and create a real benefit for philatelists through constructive activity.
Stamp collecting as hobby endures through crises and war
The piece notes stamps as a universal hobby seen on stamps and covers worldwide from Santa Claus to Roosevelt, Bela Lugosi, and family collections. It argues stamps hold value when markets crash, surviving the 1929 crash and wartime uncertainties as a steady investment and educational tool.
