American Philatelic Society: Researching a Cover’s Story

Join Dr. Frederick Lawrence FRPSL — international award-winning exhibitor, judge, consultant, columnist, and all-around Scouting on Stamps expert — as he shares his perspective on the life of a cover.

In Dr. Lawrence’s own words: “Every stamp, every cover in our collections and in our exhibits has a story, of how it came to be in our temporary possession, and who owned it before us, and where it has been, and when it was there.” In this episode of Stamp Chat, Dr. Lawrence will explore a Mafeking siege cover to find its story — and discover the stories of the covers in your own collection.
