In the days before Game Boys and iPods there was stamp collecting, or more correctly, philately. Today's youth would do well to resurrect this hobby because it teaches us so much about the world we live in: people, places, nature, history, famous authors, scoundrels -- you name it! The New England Stamp Company is one of a last of a dying breed -- the local stamp shop. You can buy stamps of course -- the collecting kind, not usually the mailing kind unless of course you want to "dress up" your mail. However, New England stamp Company also sells stamp albums, glassine envelopes, stamp tongs, magnifying glasses and all of the other paraphernalia that goes with this hobby. You owe it to yourself to visit this stamp shop if you want to find one of Naples "hidden treasures." Highly recommended.
