KING GEORGE COLLECTS
MANY COSTLY STAMPS
One Choice Specimen Worth
About $500

With reference to the meeting of the
philateiic congress. m. A. P" says
that foremost among philatelists is
King George, whose collection is worth
many thousands of pounds. One of his
stamps cost fl,450. When prince OF
Wales he turned his attention to stamp
designing and he was once asked by
the Canadian postmaster general TO
give HIS advice IN the preparation of
q new die for the Canadian stamp.
This his royal highness did, and the
resulting design was most artistic.
Prince Edward shares his royal fathers
taste for stamps, and his collection is
one that is the envy OF all his school
fellows. and, indeed. is better than
many possessed by experienced adult
collectors Among other noted collect
ors are the czar, the duchess of Bed
ford and the earl of Crawford.
