In recognition of this popular hobby, this exhibition highlights four prominent philatelists's collections: King George V of Britain (and subsequent members of the Royal family); Franklin Delano Roosevelt; and Kings Fahd and Farouk of Egypt. Approximately 12 specimens are on view. (October is National Stamp Collection Month.)
