Approximately once a month, I am in need of a new book of stamps. I suppose some pick up a standard book of stamps from say, the grocery store or drug store. For the same price as the boring old book of 54¢ Canadian stamps, you too could be picking up the newest specialty designs of stamps. For example, if one were to write correspondence to a favourite actor or actress, or pen a note of encouragement to our Canadian troops stationed across the globe, the International Year of Astronomy stamp would surely be a natty addition to the envelope. This, one of the latest philatelic products from crown corporation Canada Post, is sold in booklets of 10 costing $5.40. I would highly recommend purchasing these from Kamloops Post Office located at 217 Seymour Street. The more we support this postal outlet, the better the chance it has of staying open. The polite and efficient staff offer services in both English and French. Hours of operation are from 08:30 to 17:00 Monday to Friday. If not able to patronize this fine establishment, requests for commemorative stamps can be mailed (through the post, of course!) to:
NATIONAL PHILATELIC CENTRE
CANADA POST
75 ST NINIAN ST
ANTIGONISH NS
