If your country collection is stalled, or if you are seeking a new approach to philately, consider collecting a mini topic! Your favorite stamp in a given collection may be the perfect inspiration for a narrowly focused collection sure to bring renewed satisfaction. This program features three mini-topic collectors. Susan Jones will share her collection on Maria Sibylla Merian, a woman who changed 17^th century science with her detailed studies of insects and her ground-breaking botanical illustrations. Jennifer Miller will delight our inner child with her Winnie the Pooh on stamps and covers, and Michele Bresso will provide a historical look at Saint Bernards as rescue dogs starting in 18^th century Switzerland.
