### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Novice stamp collector? This is for you
*by T***D on 12 April 2019*

I bought this as a non stamp collector as a gift. It seems to be comprehensive, covering the history of the postage stamp and even how to store and mount stamps in an album. It advises on starting a collection and is copiously illustrated. Hopefully it will be well received.
