philatelist

noun

phi·​lat·​e·​list fə-ˈla-tə-list How to pronounce philatelist (audio)
: a specialist in philately : one who collects or studies stamps

Did you know?

The first postage stamps were made available on May 1, 1840, in England, and it didn't take long for the hobby of stamp collecting to arise. Within a year, a young London lady was letting it be known in a newspaper advertisement that she was "desirous of covering her dressing room with cancelled postage stamps". Philately has been alive and well ever since, though modern philatelists—including rock stars, English kings, and American presidents—are more likely to put the stamps they collect in special albums.
