Postal Siblings

Postal Sibling is a new term used by Shri Praful Thakkar on  his new website Indian Philately  (  http://www.indianphilatelics.com/miscellaneous/postal-siblings.html ) The details of Postal siblings is available in different categories of philatelic items.

Indian Philately : http://www.indianphilatelics.com/   is a complete website on all items related with Indian Philately. His Website is presenting some facets of Indian Philately viewed by him from his window. As a collector of various collectibles, he has faced many difficulties in collecting, understanding and arranging the collection. At the same time he realized that the same may be happening to new collectors and they might be facing similar hurdles too. To overcome such situations and to encourage philatelists and hobbyists, he has made the attempt of launching this Website.

In the amazing world of Philately, every day a new birth of stamp, Folder, FDC or cancellation is taking place. Mostly they all are different and have their own individual independent identity. However, sometimes we find identical similarity in two or more cases. In such cases, we find similar designs with slight variation in colors, sizes, papers, designs etc in some of the Stamps, Folders, FDCs, Cancellations, Slogans etc. These types of similarities in different postal items remind us of siblings who are twins, triplets or quadruplets.
