Stamps are a great way to start a collection. I only have 2 sets myself but with prices of hardware being what they are I might get more just to stay in the game. Photographs are also good value & you can spend a lot of time studying them. Each one tells a story, locations, what people are doing & the expressions on the faces. Fascinating stuff IMO

War is when your government tells you who the enemy is.
Revolution is when you figure it out for yourself.
