I have a family of friends who collect stamps. The Vignola's. They have perhaps one of the most complete Nepal collections in the world. Many are scarce, some are rare. But most would have cost pennies when purchased over the years.

Frank exhibited a set of sheets of the Sri Pahapati (spelling) at one show and was awarded international gold. Now he is very much a collector emeritus. But his reasons have always been.

"The value is that they tell a story. And the story is the thing."

Thanks penny.
