Why Thematic Philately
Thematic Philately provides a philatelist an interesting way of illustrating a chosen theme with the help of stamps and philatelic materials. Almost every possible subject can be developed into a thematic exhibit. In thematic philately one develops a story around a theme using his/her personal and innovative ideas. Collecting stamps and philatelic items on a subject is not thematic philately.


Why I Started This Blog


After winning the Champion of Champion Award (National Championship) at INPEX – 2013, National Philatelic Exhibition held at Mumbai, I started receiving many phone calls seeking my advice regarding thematic philately. I felt the need of having my own blog through which thematic philatelists from India as well as overseas may interact with me. I will try to answer the queries of philatelists via this blog. Articles and information related to thematic philately would be posted time to time.

A lot of philatelists have asked me to send the Title and Plan Page of my exhibit “Summer Olympic Games”. I will post this very soon on this blog. In coming time I would share my knowledge through articles, but it would be appreciable to receive any articles or information readers of this blog like to contribute.


Please do not forget to post your comments as this would assist me to improve this blog.
