Philatelic Gifts for the Holidays

John Finch makes some suggestions on what stamp collectors might like for the holidays on the About.com website.

• A subscription to Linn’s Stamp News
• A high value stamp they wouldn’t buy for themselves
• A new catalog
• A book with a stamp collecting related subject
• A vacation to the country they collect
• A weekend at a big stamp show or exhibition
• Stock Pages
• Membership in a philatelic club or organization
• Time alone with their stamps 
• The latest catalog for their collecting area.

One suggestion John left off (and my personal favorite..Santa are you listening?) is a stamp related tee-shirt, hat, mug (as shown above), mouse pad, or satchel that are available at http://www.stampgiftshop.com/.
