There's no stamp magazine in America quite like this. See for yourself!
The American Stamp Dealer & Collector, a new, high quality 10-times-a-year magazine for stamp collectors and dealers, has been called America's best stamp publication. The American Stamp Dealers Association, the 93-year old international organization for stamp dealers, is making a bold commitment to publish this unusual new journal for the philatelic hobby.

The 72-page full color magazine is packed with news, feature stories, serious philatelic articles, and numerous other resources for all stamp collectors, from beginner to advanced. Randy Neil, former president of the American Philatelic Society, is editor. Backing him up are philately's top writers, including: Steven J. Rod, John Hotchner, John Dunn, Peter Mosiondz, Jr., Trish Kaufmann, Art Groten, James Lee, and John Almberg.
"One of the most important elements of The American Stamp Dealer & Collector is its coverage of the human side of philately---the people, the events and activities," explained Neil. "This kind of coverage, though very popular years ago, has largely been missing in philatelic publications in recent times."
ASDC offers some excellent opportunities for writers and advertisers. It presents a bold and colorful new venue for philatelic writers and advertisers wishing to reach a new audience. But most of all, the American Stamp Dealer & Collector is a wonderful new medium to help collectors better enjoy the hobby.
