Philatelists interested in a particular subject are very exciting and exceptional people. They collect specific postage stamps, covers, post cards, postmarks and other types of philatelic goods. A lot of collectors devote their collections to the mushrooms. Postage items with images of mushrooms are issued in a great number of countries. There is a wide variety of mushrooms in the world, so you can see different mushrooms on stamps. For example, August 18, 2010, the Republic of Belarus issued a set of 5 stamps called Mushrooms: Each mushroom stamp in this set depicts a rare mushroom included in the Red Book of the Republic of Belarus. There are stamps with the images of common mushrooms. Thus a set of 2 stamps called Mushrooms was issued on October 16, 2009, in Spain. Each mushroom stamp in this set depicts an edible mushroom. Edible mushrooms are traditionally included in the cuisines of many nations all over the world. January 2, 2003, Aland Islands issued a set of 3 stamps also called Mushrooms: Mushrooms and berries are gifts of the forest, which people have eaten since the ancient days. September 6, 2008, Latvia issued a set of 2 stamps called Flora of the Forest Floor: There are interesting stamps showing mushroom gatherers. For example, Booklet of 7 stamps called Mushroom picker was issued on May 4, 2004, in the Republic of Belarus: Philatelists who collect postage items with the image of mushrooms should pay their attention to the First Day Cover (FDC). Thus, North Korea issued Mushrooms FDC on May 5, 2008: Cover and stamps in this FDC contain images of mushroom, while postmark is mushroom-shaped. Stamps, cover and postmark together form a perfect whole. Collecting of stamps and other postage items on a particular subject requires a lot of time and energy, especially if collector wants a particular mushroom stamp. We believe we will be very helpful in such difficult yet interesting work. |
