		<description><![CDATA[One of the most difficult areas of philately is learning how to detect fakes or fraudulent stamps. The first forged stamp emerged twenty years after the very first stamp was issued by Great Britain in 1840. This was a stamp that was put out on the market with the intent to defraud collectors and philatelists into believing it was a real one.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While Philately includes the study of both technical and topical aspects of stamps, it can extend to much more than that. Some concentrate their studies on the history of the postal system and still others may study only “Cinderella” stamps, which are basically stickers that look like stamps but aren’t. Some examples of Cinderella stamps would be the Easter Seal stamps or Christmas stamps.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The first stamp was issued in Britain back in the early 1800’s. Sir Rowland Hill was the man who first came up with the idea of using postage stamps to prepay for postal mail. It was called the Penny Black, a picture of Queen Victoria. One had to use scissors to cut each individual square from the sheet. The next country to follow suit in using stamps to pay for postage was Brazil]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With so many stamp collectors around, it’s no wonder some find forging stamps to be a profitable business. Some stamps are in high demand and if a successful forger were to be able to reproduce it in such a way that it couldn’t be detectable, then he’s in for a cash windfall. Many of your philatelists work at studying forgeries and fakes to prevent this from happening.]]></description>
