Stanley GibbonsWith a distinguished heritage dating back to 1856, Stanley Gibbons is the world’s longest established rare stamp merchant. That legacy and the reputation that we have earned affords us the luxury of being able to offer a lifetime guarantee on all our rare items and remain the only philatelist in the world to offer this assurance. We continue to serve hobbyists, collectors and philatelists alike and are proud to continue our association with the Royal Philatelic Collection.
