I Have Been A Stamp Collector For Over 40 Years, A Postal Historian And A Philatelist For About 15 Of Those Years And A Specialist Collector Of Revenue Stamps And Documents For The Last 5 Years. Ive Been A Member Of Some The Most Friendly And Wellrun Groups You Could Ever Imagine The State Revenue Society And The American Philatelic Society Are Both Examples Of Best Practice And I Even Flirted Briefly With Philatelic Exhibiting. Despite Having Served Such A Lengthy Apprenticeship I Still Dont Have An Answer To A Really Basic Question: 'Why Are Postage Stamps Catalogued, Collected And Researched With So Much More Energy And Enthusiasm Than Revenue Stamps?' There Are Many Countries Where There Doesnt Seems To Be A Reliable And Uptodate Catalogue Of Revenue Stamps Certainly Not One Accessible To A Virtual Monoglot Such As Myself. I Think It Comes Down To What I Call Critical Mass. Without Enough Revenue Stamp Collectors It Is Hard For Dealers To Establish A Viable Business But Without Dealers Generating Catalogues And Generally Raising The Profile Of This Branch Of The Hobby I Suspect That Prospective Revenue Stamp Collectors Tend To Wander Off Into The Sunset Searching For Easier Pickings. The Revenue Society Has Defined Revenue Stamps As ' ...Stamps, Whether Impressed, Adhesive Or Otherwise, Issued By Or On Behalf Of International, National Or Local Governments, Their Licensees Or Agents, And Indicate That A Tax, Duty Or Fee Has Been Paid Or Prepaid Or That Permission Has Been Granted.' This Small Study Is Intended To Bring To The Attention Of The Collecting Public The Sheer Diversity Of Revenue Stamps.
