Topical Stamp Collecting
Now ... Go Forth & Collect

Congratulations. You have completed the basic Topical Collecting on-line course. Now you should be comfortable beginning your own topical stamp collection. Enjoy!

This course is the joint effort of AskPhil.Org and the American Topical Association (ATA). The former is a non-commercial philatelic reference site begun June 1, 1999, and sponsored by the Collectors Club of Chicago. Check it out at at http://www.askphil.org.

ATA is the world’s largest philatelic specialist collecting organization, the authority on topical stamp collecting. ATA members receive the bi-monthly Topical Time, as well as an array of other benfits, such as access to more than 450 topical checklists, more than 80 ATA-published handbooks, opportunity to question the ATA panel of experts, and a whole lot more. The opening page to the ATA web site is http://www.americantopicalassn.org, where you can learn more.

Come back to this course—all or any part of it—as often as you wish. Send others. But, more importantly, roll up your sleeves and dig in to begin your own topical collection … one that reflects your own interests and personality.
