What is "stamp collecting"?
Stamp collecting is the hobby of gathering and studying postage stamps. Collectors acquire stamps from different countries, time periods, or themes, often aiming to build a comprehensive collection or find rare and valuable pieces. The hobby involves not only collecting but also organizing and preserving the stamps in albums or cases. Stamp collectors might study the history, design, and printing techniques of stamps, making it a blend of both collecting and historical research.
