History topic is stamp collecting

Bill Scheetz, of Newark, will be guest speaker at the October 18 session of History at Night at the County Historical Society. The topic for the 7 p.m. lecture is Stamp Collecting.

The instinct to collect lies in each of us. For more than 150 years, stamp collecting has been the hobby choice of royalty, movie stars, sports celebrities, and hundreds of thousands of other people. Scheetz will discuss how, where, and why stamps are collected and what the average person should collect.

The lecture is open to the public. Refreshments will be served following the lecture.

Pre-registration for this free event is required, as seating space is limited. For more information or to register, contact the Society at 946.4943.
