If you're a collector of worldwide stamps, you may find it beneficial to use an unillustrated album because there are no worldwide albums that illustrate all stamps issued. Another benefit of an unillustrated album is that it lets you arrange your stamps in the way most pleasing to you.

Keep your stamps in appropriate albums, in darkness away from direct light, inside a wine cooler, with temperatures at 12° and relative humidity between 50-55%. If the 'ideal' is not possible in your home, keep the collection in darkness and take steps to get the accurate temperature and humidity correct.

To start off your collection, unless you have a specific theme in mind already, a great way to get a base is to buy the largest packet of whole-world stamps you can afford. You can also gather stamps through friends and family abroad, from old letters.

The essence of a good stamp arrangement is neatness ? stamps placed squarely in the spaces provided for them or in level, tidy rows on a blank leaf. It sounds simple ? and indeed it is ? but it does require care and thought. Some printed albums have stamp 'squares' in rows across the album page.
