Today’s Topic: Stamp Collecting in the Digital Age
John Hughes shares how reopening a childhood stamp collection led him back into the world of stamp collecting. This session offers an overview of the hobby, along with a look at how stamp collecting has changed through online research, digital catalogs, apps, and collection-management tools.
Presenter Bio:
John Hughes started collecting stamps at about age 12 and enjoyed the hobby for several years before adult life, marriage, and a career in the U.S. Navy and information technology took center stage. After retiring around the time of COVID and moving to Dallas, Texas, to be closer to his son, a neighbor offered him part of her father’s stamp collection—the material a dealer had declined. That gift rekindled his interest, and for the past three years John has been rediscovering stamp collecting as a favorite hobby.
