Vintage Collection
Many philatelists specialize in vintage stamps. By some account, a vintage stamp is simply any postage stamp that is not in current circulation. Other experts define vintage stamps as older than some arbitrary years. These antique stamps are solely defined by their age, so they include misprints, cancelled or uncancelled, national or international, commemorative and air post selections.
This lends a historical dimension to the hobby that leads collectors to discover engraving and printing techniques, international relations such as colonial connections. Other unusual attributes of vintage stamps may be high face value, air mail only, misprinted with strange colors or typos, postage due, or special delivery.
