- Who doesn't love a philatelic show & tell? In this episode, I invited channel viewers to bring something from their collection to Stampex 2023, and tell us all about it.

Its interesting to listen differents stories from collectors.
😊 it’s my favorite thing about stamp shows.
I really enjoyed listening to Luke talk about his letter to the King!
Same 😊. Luke will make another (very impressive) appearance in an upcoming video, stay tuned!
Thank-you (I am Luke)
@@Norge_collector_historyLuke, your representation of the King was much better than the actual stamp!
@@d3Luciani9028 thanks
Nice one Graham! Thanks for putting me on. Keep up the good work. ✌🖖
😊 Thanks Rick!! The viewers are enjoying your 2 collecting interests as I see in the comments, thanks for taking part 🙏
You always make it interesting, and the people you meet are just like us. 👍👍👍👍🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺😎
A very beautiful video of these meetings of passionate and exciting people. Thank you very much Grahan for these beautiful moments of life.
You are very welcome 😊. My favorite part of stamp shows is the people, it's so much fun to just chat with collectors from start to end. Thanks for watching!
I'm late guys, I hope you saved a piece of cake and brigadeiros for me, thank you to all the collectors for sharing your treasures, now I also want to write to the King 👑, Rick and Graham I'm very proud of you both, Rick and your passion by Evita, Graham and his hunger for knowledge make a great duo, one day the three of us will be laughing together and sharing our collections, hugs 🎉
Thanks Jessica, I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊 Rick’s collection is SO cool!! Actual Cosmonauts signed those covers, it’s real history. Of course we saved you some cake and brigadeiros 😋 🍰
Love these episodes, and it's so fun to put some faces to names that I see online all the time, here on YT and Instagram! It's really enjoyable to see what areas people like to collect and just how broad and diverse this hobby can be! Thanks for putting this together Graham!
Glad you like them! These videos almost make themselves, collectors love sharing their interests and are so knowledgeable about the topics, I just point the camera and shoot. 😊 Thanks Lisa, hope you are well!
Awesome :-)
Thanks 🤗
This is what philately is about. Everyone has a certain area of interest and they show their passion. Loved the video!
Absolutely! Listening to collector’s passions and interests really gets me excited, so many fascinating ways to enjoy the hobby! Thanks so much for watching 😊
very nice reportages as always
Thank you 😊
Love your videos I haven’t been to stampx for 30 years but I’m going back this year looks like great fun keep the video coming thanks
Great video!
Thanks Chris 😊
Nice! Really interesting to see what others are collecting, what spikes their interest. Of course I enjoyed seeing some Dutch stamps on the show, as a collector of Dutch stamps they are present in my collection. I actually quite like the lenticular stamp of Carice van Houten even though it may be a bit strange 😊 Thanks Graham for sharing this!
Glad you enjoyed it! Yeah the Netherlands was well represented at Stampex I guess 😊 Daan will make another appearance in an upcoming episode, stay tuned!
Enjoyable video with great different perspectives - thanks
Thanks Steve, glad you enjoyed it 😊
Great fun! Thanks for sharing Graham. It's always wonderful to see what folks are interested in. You're right, it's amazing the vast array of collecting choices there are. One of the great things about this hobby, there's no wrong way to enjoy it. Cheers!
Thanks James! I love speaking with collectors at stamp shows, there really is no wrong way to enjoy the hobby 😊 glad you enjoyed the video!
❤ love this episode, not sure why 😂
You made a nice story of our talk Graham.
Ha thanks Erik!! 😊 I wouldn’t be surprised if you inspired some folks to pick up the Nassau Street book or look for Tasco booklets. Very well done sir, thank you for participating 🙏 😊
Wonderful episode!
Thank you 😊
You have great graphic of the stamps you show!!
Thank you 😊.
What I think is great about this hobby is the endless amount of one of a kind items you can find without spending a ton of money due to letters with various stamps and obliterations. Great video!
Exactly!! It’s infinite, there are just endless ways to explore and collect, sometimes from items that just land in your mailbox for no additional cost. 😊 Thanks Jim!
My eyes opened widely when I learned about the local Pakistani overprints
Such an interesting topic and area to explore!! really fascinating. 🇵🇰
Great video! I’m so pleased to see these young people getting into the hobby! Philately has to be the best hobby that they could have.
Couldn't agree more! Philately educates, entertains, and expands the mind 😊 such a wonderful hobby! Thanks for watching!
The Juri Gagarin covers are awesome!!
Agreed!! I was in awe when I saw them! Thanks for watching!! 😊
Amazing! I enjoyed this SO MUCH! Each person so interesting and captivating and a small window opened into their collecting and personality. I loved it. I really enjoyed everyone, but how delightful to see Luke and his letter to the King story. 🙂👑 And those space items of Rick - wow! And getting inspiration for collecting from a famous stamp dealers' street. But do not throw away the others. Thank you so much for this video, Graham!
😊 Thanks Charnie! I’m never disappointed when I ask viewers to tell me about their collections and interests, always inspiring and I learn something new every time. Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!!
Chiming in regarding Daan's experience with the postal cover. I find joining the postcrossing site has gotten me some nice covers and once in awhile stamp swaps. IN fact I got as part of a cover one of the Dutch lenticular stamps (Winter Olympics) one it.
Oh nice!! 😊 yes Postcrossing has given me some amazing modern stamps and covers. It’s one of the best things for stamp collectors to do! Thanks Chris.
A Royal Letter! Awesome
It really is pretty cool 😎👍
I enjoyed this very much.
Luke is a great story teller and stamp collector advocate!😊
Totally agree! Luke is a future RPSL president 😊 thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
I wish i had friends like luke, he rocks
Best Show and Tell yet! Very informative presentations!
Wow, thank you! 😊. Glad you enjoyed the presentations.
Luke: "It could just be any old person on a stamp"🤣🤣
He’s not wrong 😂
Excellent video and well produced , thanks for posting these interesting interviews. Subscribing
Much appreciated! Thank you so much for watching, there are a few other videos uploaded from this Stampex last month, and 3 more to come. Thanks for subscribing 😊
I wrote two letters to Buckingham Palace, and they replied with prepaid envelopes both times. Could it be because Luke wrote about stamps and then received a ‘stamped reply’😂? I enjoyed everything covered in this video but Luke’s story impressed me the most😉 thank you, Graham.
Strange. I wrote to the pace twice (only got one response) although thay were connected. I think thay may of runout of franked envelopes. But what do I know?
And I've only seen the the new envelopes so thay may not of been uesed at this time.
Seriously 😂?!? Come one Buckingham palace, stamps on all letters!!
Maybe try one more time, Richard, ask or tell them something about stamps 😊
Thanks Richard, glad you enjoyed it!!
I acquired a French based stamp collection with a bunch of other world stamps as well this has been so fun and informative thank you for sharing
You have done an amazing job. Thanks for having me on your channel.
Thanks Ehtasham! 😊. you did a great job explaining Pakistan overprints, thank you so much for sharing with us at Stampex!
I really appreciate you for making these videos😄 beacause there are very few channels on youtube which provide information on philately and I must say you are the BEST😁
Greetings from India!
Thank you 😊 so glad to see that you are enjoying the channel. Thanks so much for watching!!
I’ve been in John’s position. Trying to focus on my specific collection, but constantly getting distracted by random items I find interesting. 😂
😂 It’s a tough spot to be in!! So many distractions.
Looks like fun! It is so nice to hear and see the philatelic passions of my fellow collectors.
It really is! My favorite thing at stamp shows is to talk to the collectors and learn about their interests 😊 thanks so much for watching!!
Amazing video! Its always interesting to see other people's collections. Especially when its a topic I don't collect.
Same! I thoroughly enjoy seeing the variety of items that people collect, I also just enjoy listening to them talk about their passions, its so wonderful 😊. Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!!
Really interesting topics. I have never heard of the Tasco booklets, this is convenient. The letter of the king, where I missed the answer of the suggestion for a better pic. I support his idea, a king without a crown is no king. I do not know a lot regarding Eva Perron, but I´m learning Spanish and may be the book can help me learning it. Regarding the cosmonauts, sorry but I should not see your videos too often, I was thinking about your last one with the creepy stamps the set from Africa with the roasted cosmonauts....
Thank you for the video and the collectors who presented their items. It is interesting what ideas the people have to collect.
Thank you Oliver 😊 I learned SO much from each of these collectors. From Eva Peron to Tasco booklets, so many wonderful corners of the hobby to explore. Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Graham. Fun to see how different all the collectors are. Some great interviews. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Les 😊. Glad you enjoyed it!
Absolutely loved this episode Graham!! Our hobby really is the best, it’s so diverse. From postmark errors, to ships named after Eva Peron, and different styles of overprints. There’s so much to learn. Your videos continue to inspire me, right from when I started my channel to today.
Totally agree! I’m always blown away by the variety of subjects people discuss with me, it’s infinite!! It really is the best hobby out there. Thanks so much for your support, John 😊
Absolutely fascinating 1st story.
Decades ago I bought stamps in a downtown Manhattan stamp shop...... I cannot recall if it was on Nassau Street but it certainly could've been.
I'm nearly 60 so I started collecting stamps literally Decades ago.
Oh its quite likely that it was Nassau Street then, definitely consider reading Herman Herst's book, it is a favorite among the philatelic community 😊
Hi Graham. Thank you so much for yet another wonderful and inspiring episode. I went to bed early last night and watched your episode on Nepal and this latest Show & Tell on my phone. It triggered a stream of consciousness which lasted for 2 hours wondering what responses I might have given. (It was a wonderful experience connecting joyful memories of different stamps, themes, specialities while connecting with history, art, cinema and theatre). It started with lockdown memories of putting together a collection of machins and looking at them under ultra violet light (another world) to researching online the paintings on which well loved engraved stamps were based. It combined with magical moments from historical movies (how about an episode on Napoleon? ) and made me think about how you might do an episode on theatre (you could start off in an amphitheatre in ancient Greece and then see you get up on stage in a Victorian theatre as the curtains roll back and you walk through the door of a Globe theatre stamp and go back in time to watch Puck & Bottom, Romeo & Juliet and Henry V on eve of Agincourt magically appear on stage.
It strikes me that your films are more than just mini documentaries or reportage but works of art in themselves. I often relate the magical dive into the Singapore stamp in #philately S4E3 with the moment in the Purple Rose of Cairo movie where you are transported into the screen and into another world. It may be that the techniques you use would be of interest to budding film makers and the drama you create in your shorts would be of interest to film buffs. I find your creations have the same effect on me as some contemporary art exhibitions - they open up my mind to looking at things in another way. This can be liberating and enthralling. I certainly think art historians and gallery goers would be drawn in to the stories and interested to know about the reproductions of these paintings on little bits of paper that must have shaped the thoughts of those who have stuck them on envelopes or gazed at them in their collections. Is there any way of creating awareness for your wonderful conceptions to this wider public?
😊 Thank you so much for the kind words! Napoleon, cinema, and walking through the door of the Globe theatre to see classics on stage...these are all totally aligned my style and hopes I had for the channel. Weaving through the historical, geographical, and artistic elements that stamps bring us while keeping the content engaging and exciting is something that I have tried to master through the years, thankfully the stamps do much of the hard work themselves! It means a lot to know that this content has connected with the viewers in some way, even though my channel is small and has had very few views. Thank you 😊😊
Overprints on India Postage stamps is a very wide area with a number of states inside India... And also used in Gulf areas... You could find countries like Pakistan, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar as well as states like Nabha, Gwalior, Jind, and a lot more ..
Great knowledge... from Ehtaaham...
Thank You Graham for doing these kinds of contributions to Philately..
Soo interesting!! I imagine that there is tons of research (and more to be done) in the world of overprinted Indian stamps. Very cool! Thanks so much for watching, glad you enjoyed the video 😊
It's gonna cost me a whole $3 to attend the Salem Coin and Stamp show next week, but hopefully face value guy will be there and maybe 25c postcard guy. I probably have covers from Nassau St. This gives me good ideas for the show to find some unusually posted items in the bargain bins.
The 25c postcard guy is my favorite! Hope he is there 😊 Enjoy the show!!
I love this episode so much! Each person you met had something interesting to show and tell about the hobby. I've learned something new from everyone of them and this is my favorite thing about stamp collecting. The actress Daan was talking about, Carice van Houten should be well know to Game of Thrones fans as she playd Melisandre in the tv shows. There were so many captivating philatelic items shown in this episode but my favorite has to be that colourful first cosmonaut cover signed by Yuri Gargarin shown by Rick. Wow!
Thank you 😊. The variety of items and collecting styles is just so wonderful to see at stamp shows. Rick's cosmo cover with Yuri Gargarin's autograph is quite something!! I was so impressed once he pulled that out along with the many other cosmonaut items. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it!!
For the last decade or so, the investment banks that lined Wall Street have mostly moved out. The prestige of a wall street address has long faded. Walk down Nassau street today and you'll find many of the storefronts boarded up.
I definitely need to take a walk down Nassau, I’ve been to do so for a while now. Sad to hear that the prestige has faded 😔
👏👏👏 very informative once again! thanks Graham and to the collectors interviewed!
Glad you enjoyed it 😊 thanks so much for watching!
Graham, Great video as always. I especially enjoyed the story of Luke's correspondence with Buckingham Palace. Your interviews are always interesting and informative along with being varied in the wide range of ages of the collectors and their philately interests. Thanks and keep of the great work.
Glad you enjoyed it 😊. Thanks so much for watching!
Stories well chosen, and good to show you can collect without spending a fortune! Hopefully I can feature on your video at the next show. I have found some good things at Stampex for my collection.
Thanks Allan 😊 you really can find interesting items that showed up in your mailbox, so many wonderful ways to enjoy the hobby. Thanks for watching!
Great episode again Graham. I already said it a few times, thank you so much for sharing this content to the collecters society. And Luke what a nice story you told about the card you sent to the royal palace. Also our king in Holland doesn't use his crown on stamps. i might say he never uses the crown in whatever occassion. But you are totally right with it. Kings are kings and it is strange to see them as regular old men on a stamp. Never thought about it, but you have a point there. Bu i must say that I adore stamps of portaits of royal family and presidents with all their color varity.
And the story of Daan was also interesting to me, because I also collect dutch stamps. Never knew there where only 5 facilities in the netherlands to stamp the stamps. @Daan or Graham, if you read this comment, do you know where to find any nice literature or CZcams canals about dutch Philately? it's hard to find. Since a very short period now I started het Postcollectief, till now I'm the only member of this collective. in fact it's just a fun experience for myself to reinvent this great hobby for me and learn more about it!
Thank you 😊, I also love the stamps with royal portraits with varying color themes/backgrounds, they make for beautiful stamps!!
I don’t know any channels dedicated to Dutch philately 🤔, but I’ll keep an eye out and let you know should I find any, or if any happen to start. Hey maybe you might be interested in starting such a channel 😉? Glad you enjoyed the video, Thanks so much for watching!!
Beautiful Episode :) thanks graham
Glad you enjoyed it! 😊 thanks for watching!
very good video! lots of good knowledge. Always support and wait for new videos!
Thank you so much 😊 glad you enjoyed it!
Another entertaining show, Graham! I’d really like to go to Stampex one of these days.
Thanks Nyle 😊 Stampex is my favorite of all the stamp shows to attend, if you get a chance definitely consider making the trip. Thanks for watching!!
Great episode. I enjoyed the enthusiasm of the Pakistani collector. And Dutch grieving stamps- who knew?? Interesting stuff.
Thank Jeff 😊, I had no idea about the grieving stamps until Daan discussed them, very interesting!! Glad you enjoyed the episode.
Quite an excellent quality of Cosmonaut memorabilia. Really impressive. Looks like an excellent time for everyone. I think it would be fun to buy from a dealer at a show like this and to discuss the stamp with someone who really knows their merchandise. I'm still assembling my "want list", there's so many ways to go with collecting and my first attempts were unrealistically wide. Cheers!
It really is an impressive collection of cosmonaut covers and stamps, Rick has done a wonderful job. Thanks Buzza Wuzza, I had a great time at Stampex 😊
Great video Graham. As always, very interesting. David
Glad you enjoyed it 😊 Thanks David!
Sorry I fogot to say on this; stamp it was drew this up it was PRE CORONATION so I had the Royal cypher on the bottom left hand corner. In a somewhat similar vain to the the Edward VIII issues. I would have the crown above his head like King Edward VII issues post coronation. Plus I can't draw a crown.
Thanks Luke!! 😆 I wouldn’t be able to draw a crown either, you did a fantastic job with your drawing. And it looks like your segment was one of the most popular for the viewers, very well done 👍
I look forward to editing the £10 challenge soon, I have one more video before that so hang tight 😊
Thank you for sharing this video. Unfortunately, it seems stamp collecting is not as popular as it once was. I can remember attending a stamp expo at the LA convention when I was in 7th grade back in 1981 and it was wall to wall with people. From the look of the video, you can literally count the number of attendees with 1 hand. I just recently looked at my collection again after 35 years and it brings back a lot of pleasant memories. I hope to spend more time enhancing my collection as well as getting rid of some duplicates. While researching on the web, I find that FDC has lost a tremendous amount of value. I can remember they were quite expensive back then for a kid to explore but now since they're so cheap, I'm looking to add more to my collection. I'm wondering if you know of any stamp clubs in southern California that I can join to share the experience of stamp collecting. Thanks.
😊 Thank you for watching. Yes sadly the good ole days are behind us, the stamp collecting experience has been changing since the 80s and we now see a lot of activity online instead. For stamp clubs in California, check out the APS listing of clubs and see if any are near you: stamps.org/collect/clubs
@@ExploringStamps Thank you for the reply, Graham. I will definitely contact a few clubs in OC, CA just to rekindle my passion for stamps. I look forward to seeing more of your videos. Steve.

Perfect Topicals for Graham!
Yup 😊 🦏 🏏
Carice van houten played melisandre in game of thrones 😊
will you be at hafnia 24? would be cool to see you there!
I won't be there unfortunately, but for anyone in or near Copenhagen, definitely check it out 17-20 October 2024.
well that's sad to hear but i hope that one day we could meet at a stamp show :)@@ExploringStamps

Better and cheaper idea: design your homes and infrastructure to be moveable or replaceable.
Having the volcano cover your house every 500 years is not a big deal when your doing to replace it every 100 years, anyway.
