ATA COURSE - LEARN ABOUT TOPICAL STAMP COLLECTING
Learn about Topical Stamp Collecting through our new interactive course
Topical Stamp Collecting - The Basics
, supplied by Mr. Dick Sine.
The links to the right (or on the
bottom) of each page can acquaint you with many facets of the American Topical
Association. We suggest you start with
About the ATA to learn the history of the organization. After
that, Benefits
will be a second informative stop for you. Next, take a look at the
Topical Time to get an idea of what our bi-monthly
journal has to offer, while the Articles
button takes you to a summary of article topics that have previously appeared
in Topical Time and the
T. T. Indexes
button takes you to a listing of the Table of Contents for some of our more
recent issues. The News button will give you an idea of the more recent
press releases which have gone out to the philatelic media.
Handbooks,
Checklists
and Audio/Visual
will each show some of the aids we offer to increase your collecting
enjoyment. Specials will, from time to time, let you know of price
breaks available on some items - check back often to see what new offers
are available! The Study Units
will acquaint you with over 50 specialized
groups of collectors who have their own journals and/or newsletters. Also, the
Chapters
lists 33 stamp clubs around the world in which topical collectors are members.
Navigating to the Stamp
Shows page will tell you about our annual National
Topical Stamp Show (NTSS), including dates and locations over the next 2-3
years. On the Membership
page, you will see how easy it is to join the ATA,
while the Officers
page lists all the information on who you can contact to learn more about our
various services. We also have a special section which shows many tips on
collecting called Collecting
for Seniors (who make up a large majority of our
organization). This section can actually be used by anyone to start a new
topical collection. Finally, the
Member Links and the
Links buttons can take you to further sources of
information. We expect to add more links as the website continues to grow.
