I'm assorting a large group of stamps and have found quite a few Christmas seals and similar items. More than likely I will not keep these, except for possibly a couple of the older ones. Does any one collect these?

jpotx113 ....I’m not sure about collectors among members of TSF but there are collectors out there. While I don’t necessarily collect them, I save any that I come across in accumulations that I buy and stick them in a glassine.

yes, there are people who collect these (I do not) but I have numerous full sheets and an un-opened envelope as mailed out... and numerous singles.... i just haven't gotten around to deciding how best to "distribute" to others.
These and Boy's Ranch too!

I don’t collect them, but I know there is a club for these. I also know a fellow who collects covers where the seal has been tied, I mean to say the the seal is on an envelope and has been cancelled, thus “tied” ie connected to the paper. (Explanation is for our beginner members, don’t mean to sound pedantic or like an old school marm swinging her ruler haha)
ah ha! found it on wiki; club is called “Christmas Seal & Charity Stamp Society”.

Like Coastwatcher, I don't collect them, but keep those I come across in mixtures and those Philatelia mentioned, tied to cover. The latter I will sometimes buy if the rest of the cover is interesting. I'm also fond of the art deco designs of the 1930s.

This thread should provide an answer to the question. |

I have some early ones that I put on the back of our Christmas cards. They are usually appreciated.
