Fine Stamps on Approval - Since 1987 - Dealer Member APS

The term philately, pronounced "fih-LAT-ul-ee", was  first used in 1864 by  Georges Herpin, an avid collector of stamps. The word is a translation of the Greek words philos (“love”) and  ateleia ("that which is tax-free”). This phrase was intended to be a reference to the fact that postage stamp permitted the letter to come free of charge to the recipient.
