Philately
- Philately (Definition)
- Generally, philately is the hobby of collecting postage stamps. Traditional philately involves the acquisition and direct observation and study of stamps of the world. The study of stamps is enhanced using philatelic literature. Country collecting is a popular form whereby a hobbyist limits a collection to one or several countries of interest. Philately is greatly informed by postal history, the study of the mails.
