Part of my stamp collection

I started collecting stamps in the third grade.
How did it start?
Everything was very simple, I got a stamped envelope in my hands.
I liked this brand and I was sorry to throw it away.
And then another envelope and another ...

Later I got the same brands.
To my delight, there were other children in our yard who also collected them.
We started to exchange stamps.

I was growing up, the number of stamps increased. My hobby "stuck".
From the money that my parents gave me, I began to put it in a piggy bank.
No, I didn’t lose ice cream and movies too :-)

I learned about the "black market" and ran there to buy not only books, but now also stamps.
How long has it been !!!

Photos of stamps are a "drop in the ocean" from what I have.

I kept the stamps in a box, later I was able to buy a special album for stamps.
How glad I was !!! For me then it was the most beautiful album in the world!

But it also turned out to be very high quality!
Yes, the quality mark has justified itself. Until now, the paper has retained its color, the "pockets" for stamps have not come off!
But many years have passed! They knew how to do!

After buying the album, I began to take this hobby more seriously, or so it seemed to me.
Since I never became a professional collector. But it brought me joy, and I still really enjoy looking at my albums sometimes.
