Stamp collecting: the beginning

Collecting Stamps — also known as philately — has been around 180 years, since national postal organizations emerged. Before this, the post was carried by riders on horseback, or with those travelling between towns and cities. As railways spread across developing industrial countries, so did postal networks. Stamps were and are an essential part of this network.

Since then, around 1 million unique postage stamp motifs have been created worldwide. 235 postal countries and territories that issue postage stamps, which quickly became collector’s items. A vast international collectable market was born.
