Welcome to Peter's page of Czechoslovakian stamps! 
Online since 22. 10. 1998.


Hello! 

My name is Peter Hoffmann and I'm 58-years old.
I live in Lysekil, Sweden. It's a small town 100 km north of Gothenburg.
My hobbies are downhill and cross-country skiing, bicycle-riding, tennis and of course stamp collecting.

Stamp collecting, a fascinating hobby - as it's already said about philately: "The King of Hobbies and the Hobby of Kings"

I hope you will find something interesting on my page and that you will contact me, by e-mail or via my guestbook.

Catalogs of the Czechoslovakian stamps

During the last decade we became used to, and took as obvious, the fact that POFIS would almost every year publish a new catalog of Czechoslovak and Czech Republic stamps. Each was consistently better, more informative, on better quality paper quality, and of course in color.
