Whether it’s defrauding the postal authorities, or the endeavours of criminals to deceive buyers with altered or manufactured material; fakes and forgeries are as old as the stamps themselves.
In this webinar we lifted the lid on this fascinating topic of philatelic crime, highlighting the artistry of Sperati, down to the funnies which have become a fundamental aspect of our hobby as a result of opportunists and professionals.
The team behind Stamp Collector magazine and the allaboutstamps.co.uk website have teamed up with the Museum of Philately to present a series of special 'Adventures in Philately' webinars which celebrate, explore and explain the world of stamps and stamp collecting.
