Say it with stamps
Friday, May 18, 2012
I am neither a collector nor a philatelic but I can sure appreciate when I see collection of a larger life span. Jalal HB stated collecting stamps when he was a ‘little boy.’ His father was then the head of Interpol in Pakistan and had his mail coming from all over the world and kept feeding Jalal’s passion. Seeing his craze, Jalal’s elder, who himself was an avid stamp lover, gifted his collection to him. And that was only a start.
Now a big boy, Jalal has documented history in a sizeable collection he has and is proud of. What is more, he has started My Philatelic World where he is transferring his treasure online. I suggest all stamps’ lovers see what he has on his blog. It is treat even for a non collector like me.

Now let's put the records straight. I love your collection. It is really not pathetic. It is great work and labor of love that I like to see every day.
