In this episode, we turn our attention to stamps and stories shaped by empire, identity and memory.

Josh Barber, Head of Stamps, is joined by world-renowned philatelist and author Majed Halawi to explore Sierra Leone's extraordinary philatelic legacy.
Born in Sierra Leone, Majed reflects on how childhood fascination with the colours of stamps and encouraged his teacher, grew into a lifelong passion. The conversations follow his journey from early collecting to the creation of Echoes of Empire, a monumental two-volume work examining stamps through the lens of history, politics, empire and slavery.

Together, they discuss key rarities, the importance of context in philately, and why stamp collecting remains as relevant and powerful today as ever.


From colour and curiosity to empire and context, this is philately at its finest.
