Singapore Philatelic Museum is the custodian and curator of Singapore's treasure of philatelic materials. The museum collections range from stamps and archival philatelic material of Singapore from the 1830s to present day, and stamps from member countries of the Universal Postal Union.
The permanent galleries introduce the world of philately, the world's first stamp, and how stamps are a window to the world - to explore different topics such as science, technology, history and culture. Throughout the year, the museum holds special exhibitions on current topics. Educational activities are organised for schools and members of the public to discover the heritage of Singapore and other countries through philately.
Mission
The mission of SPM is to stimulate interest in philately. Through philately, the museum promotes the educational use of philatelic materials to learn about national history and heritage, and the world.
Went to check out Singapore Philatelic Museum with Angie on one of the weekend during our off day.
Be spellbound by beautiful Harry Potter stamps from all over the world as well as movie memorabilia and collectibles from private collectors. On display are the first licensed Harry Potter stamps, First Day Covers, postcards, special cancellations, unusual stamp labels, limited edition books and DVDs, prop replicas, movie posters, toys and more.
From now until 2 January 2017, answer a question based on the exhibition and stand a chance to win Harry Potter Collectibles. Prizes are sponsored by Books Kinokuniya and Singapore Philatelic Museum.
