Dear Editor,
My name is George Phillips and I am an 84-year-old resident of Manitoba, Canada.
As a young boy I had the privilege of collecting stamps/coins/postcards from around the world.
There was no Internet or mass media back then, and this was one of the ways that one discovered the world around them.
I would like to pass this down to my great grandson, Tristan Phillips, so he too may enjoy a hobby that was once popular but is now fading.
Even at the age of four, Tristan has shown interest in stamps/coins/postcards.
With this in mind, we would greatly appreciate it if you anyone or everyone may find time to send Tristan some stamps, coins or postcards from your country so that I may assist him in the start of what may be a lifetime passion.
