В. Алексеев "Говорят марки"

This book tells the fascinating history of domestic stamps - from the first issue to 1961. The author, as it were, gives the floor to the stamps themselves, and they talk about the heroic deeds of the Soviet people in the days of peace and the days of war, about the remarkable people of science, art, literature, about the conquest of space. The final chapter gives tips on how to collect stamps.
