WHO ARE WE?

We are collectors from around Eastern Iowa
who collect for different reasons:
* to learn about people, history and geography.
* to study the lands of our ancestors.
* for investment purposes.
* by specific countries, or time periods.
* or for topics of interest.

Our meetings offer opportunities:
* to keep up with news of the hobby.
* to acquire new stamps.
* to learn methods of collecting and display.

Visit us soon. Attend a meeting or two for free.
Dues are only $15 per year, and you will get
our monthly newsletter, "The Paste-Up".
