STAMP COLLECTING—IT\’S A HOBBY THAT
CAN GROW AND GROW
Millions of people of all ages enjoy a hobby which is both interesting and fun. Every year, more and more people start a stamp collection of their own and discover an interest which can last a lifetime. Starting your collection is easy because stamps are everywhere. Holiday postcards from friends, birthday cards from favorite aunts and letters from pen-friends can all provide you with stamps from all over the world. If you start collecting seriously, you will probably want to join the Stamp Collectors\’ Club which exists to provide collectors with new British stamps.
As a Club member you can order the special sets of new stamps you want for your collection. You can receive these in three different ways. We can either post you a complete set of stamps on an envelope addressed to you, or send you the same stamps in a colorful information pack with lots of interesting facts. Or, if you prefer, we can send you the individual stamps so you can arrange them in a special book of your own.
The Stamp Collectors\’ Club has about 70, 000 members and you could become a member too, with a two-year membership costing just ￡ 5. You can even get a reduction if a group of you join at the same time. We\’ re sure you\’ ll agree that this is great value for money.
Also, when you join, the Club sends you a starter pack at no extra cost. This contains 100 stamps to begin your collection, together with an attractive box to keep them in. You also receive our helpful four-page guide to collecting, which has further suggestions on how to add to your collection and includes addresses of shops and businesses that sell stamps.
To join the Club simply complete the application form and send in your membership fee. Your Starter Pack will be sent within 28 days of receipt of your application.
