A surprising number of stamp stores still dot the United States

Philatelic Foreword by Jay Bigalke

In my Philatelic Foreword column in the June 16 issue of Linn's, I  asked, “How Many brick-and-mortar stamp stores still exist?”

I received a significant number of responses and have created a list that includes 84 brick-and-mortar stamp stores. [Updated on Dec. 23, 2019]

I received many kind notes from store owners, too.

I likely overlooked a couple of locations in this list, or they weren’t brought to my attention. I apologize if I left anyone out, and encourage updates to this list be sent by email at jbigalke@amosmedia.com or write to my attention at Linn’s Stamp News, Box 4129, Sidney, OH 45365.

I plan to update this page accordingly.
