About Philatelic

Stamp collecting is one of the world's most popular hobbies. In Australia alone there are over 1 million stamp collectors, of all ages. Our stamp designs reflect important moments in Australian history and culture, and celebrate the environment in which we live. It takes 2 years for most stamps to come to life from the initial idea.
