Nanango Stamp Club treasurer Jenny Cameron, from Haly Creek, picked up a bargain during the auction … this mystery box of stamps for just $4!

February 3, 2025

Stamp collecting seems to be waning in popularity these days … much like sending postcards (or even letters).

But that can’t stop a bunch of keen philatelists from meeting every year in Nanango to enjoy their hobby, meet friends and maybe even snap up a bargain.

(There’s still money to be made in stamp collecting … as well as the opportunity to learn about history and other cultures!)

The annual Stamp Fair, organised by the Nanango Stamp Club, again filled the auditorium at Nanango State High School on Saturday with tables from stamp clubs as well as dealers.

Ten stamp clubs were represented from across south-east Queensland.

Kumbia QCWA volunteers kept the canteen running while members of the Nanango Stamp Club organised activities and conducted an auction.

Robert Whien, from Nanango, was another club member with many stamps and first day covers for sale
Catherine Woodham and Sheree Jackson, from the Kumbia QCWA, were volunteering in the kitchen
Ten stamp clubs as well as stamp dealers had tables in the school auditorium
