stamp room
The Stamp Room features a remarkable philatelic collection of British Virgin Islands stamps and Postal History. From the first stamps issued in 1866 to date including covers, varieties, elusive errors and specialised items. This collection is a major exhibit on permanent loan from the British Virgin Islands Philatelic Society. In addition to this splendid collection, guest exhibits are featured on a regular basis and focus on thematic and postal history aspects offering the repeat visitor an incentive to see something new. In fact the exhibits are presented in a way to attract the interest of both the veteran collector and the general public.
The Stamp Room also features a small but extremely interesting Philatelic Library with hundreds of philatelic and postal history books and publications from around the world. Donations of over 200 books have already been received.
The Museum acknowledlges with gratitude the time, financial assistance and generosity which Mr. Vernon Pickering and Dr. Giorgio Migliavacca accorded the Museum when they planned and set up the Stamp Room on the first floor of the House.
