Book Review
The book ‘My Rainbow of Philatelic Articles’ by Dr Satyendra Kumar Agarwal contains about 20 articles on different themes including technical articles on thematic Philately with more than 400 color illustrations in 150 pages.The book is a complete guide for thematic collectors. The specific feature of this book is its high quality of printing which gives crystal clear image of the illustrations. It would not only help collectors to select an interesting theme for their exhibit but would also guide them about availability of specific philatelic material available on that particular subject. It is a complete reference book for the lovers of Thematic Philately. The technical articles “Way to Gold” and “Stamp booklet as a Philatelic element” deals with the finer points of Thematic Philately and explains how an exhibitor can reach a higher medal level by arranging and selecting material prudently. This book is highly useful for all thematic collectors and general philatelists and for the libraries of schools, colleges and Philatelic societies..
The 150 page hardbound book published by Philagold Publications is priced at Rs 1200 ( US $ 25). Dr Satyendra Kumar Agarwal may be contacted for this book at email : rosephila@hotmail.com
