Kitty's Reader Notes & Book Snippet

This sweet vintage Ladybird book about Stamp Collecting is actually a highly informative little book for anyone interested in the hobby.

"Whatever your interests, there are sure to be stamps illustrating them, whether they be sports, animals, birds, flowers, art, music or literature...This book tells you something of the history of the postage stamp, and shows enough of the wide range of subject matter to make you want a collection of your own." A great little Ladybird to spark an interest in Stamp collecting. As everyday stamps gradually become more and more obsolete eventually vintage stamps will once again become an interesting and fascinating link to our past.
