Most definitely! In my case, books about stamp collecting, philately, etc. even if only PDF versions are a collectible entity in their own right! And older (and some newer) stamp albums. And, of course, eclectic stamps from gold foil to Lundy and most any stamps prior to 1880 that are mint whether with gum or not.

If you like philatelic books, even PDF versions you might find some here on this web site that you can download.

I have an album called “Terri’s Magpie Collection.” Over the years as I sold or traded off various country collections I sometimes saved a few “just because.”

An example - these Obock on quadrille paper ...

I am a sucker for odd or interesting back of the book stamps.

This is a block of four from a pane regular Panamanian stamps overprinted with a hand-etched AR on them making the stamps useful for paying the Avis de Recepcion fee. I have never seen them except in the collection of the one person I bought them from.

re: Does anyone else have collections of stamps they prefer ?

Yes, great web site. There's a TON of information there.

I have a few stock books where I keep items of interest that are not contained in my primary collection. They are there, and not everything is philatelic-related, because for some reason or another I liked what I saw.

I had no intention of collecting African stamps...until I saw how incredibly beautiful the stamps were from Mozambique Company and Nyassa. Some of the best engraving I have seen so far on stamps! Check them out and see if you don't agree, some on the series on animal life are incredible!
