Welcome
Stamp collecting has a long and rich history. Once just a children’s hobby, it has grown to become a pastime enriching the lives of children, adults who casually accumulate interesting stamps and envelopes and avid philatelists who study the history, production and use of all things relating to the worldwide delivery of messages and parcels.
The Lincoln Stamp Club is a group of 50 or so individuals of all ages and interests who find the club, with its meetings, conversations and the other benefits of membership, an aid to enriching their hobby, their passion for philately.
So … welcome to the Lincoln Stamp Club. Check out the News about our meetings and events, see if the Resources inform your collecting, consider Membership or Contact us with a question. We’re glad that you share this passion for philately!
