Are you a collector of something and hunting collectible and memorabilia items?
How about stamp collecting ?
When I was childhood, I’ve got some stamp collecting from my mom. Since that time, I got curious enough about this hobby. And, it is more exciting when I know that there were a lot of children who has the same collection as mine. The hobby is called, philately. And the person who do this hobby is called philatelist.
Now, philately is not for children hobby. To become a philatelist, we can start doing this hobby from all age. I still remember when I was teenager, I went to the philatelic exhibition with my friends. The place is quite far from my city. But, our curious defeat all the worry. It was the first time I visit that city alone, but with my friends.
The philatelic items is not only stamps. There are First Day Cover, Mini sheet, Commemorative stamps, etc.
The most impressed collection of mine is the 17 First Day Cover that is signed by Mr. Soeharto (the former of Indonesian leader). I got it when I was teenager. The way to get it is really unforgettable.
Well, another worthy collection is about WWF collection 1996. It is Rhinoceros series. You know what, this WWF is really good items to be collected. Most of philatelist always search it and want to make it as worthy collection.
You know what, that having philatelic items is not only about hobby, but also as good investment. We invest our k knowledge there?? How come? Well, by having philatelic items we also learn about many things, such as history, geography, flora , fauna etc that is showed in every collection that we buy.
Another good investment, offcourse we also invest our money in our collection. When we have good collection that is searched for by many collector, so it means we’ve put our money in good investment. In the future, the value of that collection will be raised. Above all, we’ve got satisfaction by having awesome collection.:)
