Stamp collecting Is an acquired taste, but
those who have acquired the taste will find
1t gratified at the remarkable exhibition in
the Aibemarle Galleries, which is to remain
open for another week. Little more than
half century has passed since Mulready
designed the famous envelopes. specimens
OF which are to be seen in the galleries; but
already the nuances that make for value
are noteworthy. Thus there is an English
stamp which originally cost 3D. The So
called hair-Ines on its corners send up its
present value to f100. A specimen is to be
seen at this exhibition. as also thirty of the
first penny black stamps issued In 1910.
