Philately
Philately ( ) is the study of
stamps and
postal history and other related items. Philately involves more than just
stamp collecting, which does not necessarily involve the study of stamps. It is possible to be a philatelist without owning any stamps. For instance, the stamps being studied may be very rare, or reside only in museums.
