Season 1, Episode 7: APS Director of Expertizing Ken Martin distills his 43 years of experience at the APS into this 75 minute primer on how to start collecting stamps (spoiler alert: there is no right way - every collection is a personal journey). Part 1 is designed for the new stamp collector, but is sure to have moments of wisdom for any collector. It covers the basics of the hobby, including types of stamps, types of collecting, basic materials, how and where to acquire stamps, how to mount, store, and organize your collection, and much more.
