Philatelic Bundles of Joy

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

While attending the many stamp shows we go to each year, we like to donate what I call “Bundles of Joy” to the kids booth areas and just young collectors who attend the shows. We also donate many older catalogs (2-5 years old, sometimes older) so that the new generation of collectors can enjoy the hobby. I still vividly remember the day when my grandfather gave me my first album full of stamps.

Recently, an EzStamp user & fellow philatelist has been helping us with this stamp give away venture (over the past few years). She has sent us many boxes of stamps which the kids love. These bundles of Mexican stamps were a massive hit with the kids (see image). Many years ago, I purchased a massive accumulation of about 3-4 MILLION stamps. Most are not worth very much, and duplicates abound, but I still go through them just in case I can fill some holes in my collection. The duplicates I donate or give away to kids & other collectors & friends. To Joan, who has donated many, many stamps, a big thank you ! Keep em coming. So, save those bundles of Joy & pass them on to a your collector.

Happy Collecting
