Stamps and Their Stories Week 7 - Janet MacD - 06-11-2025

Ted Luhtala spoke to the group about collecting stamps by country, in this case, Germany. He brought examples of his albums and custom pages he created for stamp studies. The group continues to be very interested in the story of German hyperinflation after WWI. It had been discussed by several presenters. Ted was able to spend more time telling stories about hyperinflation and German life during that period. The consensus of the group was we didn’t learn about this in school. 

This is why these sessions we do for the Kingston Seniors Association are called Stamps and Their Stories. In many cases, participants start by saying they don’t care about stamps, but they like to hear a good story. They are often surprised at the end of the session to find that they are interested in stamps!
