About this title

Synopsis

Noted philatelic author Stephen R. Datz takes readers on an eye-opening journey into the side of stamp collecting and dealing that most have never hear about. Datz chronicles his first-hand encounters with philatelic con-men, crooks, and scammers. Meet a rogues gallery of shadowy characters, eccentrics and even murderers—all real people inhabiting the dark underside of philately. Absolutely spellbinding—you will not want to put the book down! The second in Datz’s trilogy about the stamp business.
