description Illustration is also a key component of Stamp Collecting. The "how to" drawings and cleverly comical, cartoon-style work of Esperanca Melo and Bill Slavin mesh well to support the text. The real illustrative delight, though, is the wonderful colour reproduction of Canadian stamps provided courtesy of Canada Post. The stamp repros are what make this book special. The superheroes soaring, leaping, and otherwise posing athletically on the book's covers, the stamp strips accenting page heads, and the many single stamp examples, introduce young Canadians to a national legacy. To youngsters outside Canada, the stamps provide distinctive glimpses of many aspects of Canada and Canadian life.
