One of my pet projects is to collect covers of all the historic stamps (US) that I can find. I've used a few to teach kids at my daughter-in-laws classroom (5th grade) about American History and the value of stamp collecting as a great hobby for studying each piece as a image of the past. Unfortunately, the kids of today do not understand that there was a time that there was no telephones, let alone cell and internet access.
