2 Tips for Assembling: -Use the picture of the finished board as a guide to setting things up. -Start by using a three-sided project board. It can be white or colored. -The headings should be cut out- decorative scissors would add a little flair to the board. -Double-sided tape might work best for attaching the pages. -The main heading, A TREASURE TROVE OF TOPICS, (two pages) should be taped/glued side by side. -The headings, as well as the sheets, could also be taped/glued to colored paper. -Before attaching everything to the board, you might consider adding a border, like the kind used on bulletin boards. -If you find a plain colored border, stamps could be glued on or you could cut stamp images from old catalogs. -Pages are bookmarks that can be printed on cardstock and handed out -Page 22 could be copied, cut into fourths and handed out -Page 23 could be used as a mini-poster

12 Topical collecting is the collection of stamps by subject or design (and not for the country that issues them). Almost any subject that interests you can be found on stamps. For example: animals, butterflies, trains, space, even cartoon characters! Other stamp-related (philatelic) material that depicts your topic or theme can be collected. Examples: first day covers, cancellation and postmarks, souvenir sheets, booklet panes, and many other items.
