Leisure:Hobbies
In this episode we attempt to find when stamp collecting became a serious hobby. From making garlands of stamps on pieces of string to the scientific study of stamps, we look at the stamp house, Samuel Lord and on to the study of watermarks and perforations.
Don't forget all these podcasts are now available on Youtube with images showing the stamps we talk about.
