Stamping a passion .....
Once acclaimed as "King of hobbies" and "Hobby of kings", wonder if stamp-collecting still appeals to the public especially the young. With e-mails being fast, cheap and easy mode of modern correspondence, posting letters in stamp-affixed envelopes is something of the past for many. While stamp-collecting has taken a backseat, my interest in first-day covers (FDC) remains strong. Having spent time and money on them, its not just a past-time hobby for me but a passion.
