| Abstract: | Where-in lies the difference between a philatelist and a stamp collector? To many people the names are synonymous. If we had been asked to define the terms we should have suggested that "a stamp collector" belongs to that great body of people who are actuated by the acquisitive instinct, while "a philatelist" is he who possesses also the inquisitive instinct. In other words, we imagine that the "stamp collector" is concerned more with the actual collecting than with the study of matters pertaining to the production, issue and use of stamps. |
