Favorite Finds

(Exhibit dates: September 22, 2013 - January 5, 2014)

Collectors and their collections . . . each unique, each revealing. Examine a philatelic collection closely and you will peer into its owner’s lifelong passions. Without fail, one item excites the collector more than any other. Its detail or beauty? Its rarity? The roads it has traveled? ”Favorite Finds” brought together an assortment of those cherished items, each from a different home, all with different stories.
