It's National Stamp Collecting Month! APS Executive Director Scott English urges members to use this month's The American Philatelist to help recruit new members.
The American Philatelic Society Education and Youth coordinators helped hundreds of kids learn How the Post Office Works in the space of a few short hours. Kids sorted through a pile of used stamps and paste them into their very own beginner albums. They also wrote and decorated "postcards" to their favorite Sesame Street friends.
"It is up to us to make sure that our hobby and its merits are preserved and passed onto the next generation."
