Tommy Tricker & the Stamp Traveller
[Video] |
| A Mystery Box Reader comments: The story is about several children who are stamp collectors
and discover a magic way to place yourself on a stamp to travel around
the world. Several of the children travel from Canada to China and back
and eventually solve the mystery of one of their long-lost relatives.
From The Editor:
We bought this video as a "family" gift and had great fun watching
it. Stamp collectors will chuckle at the classic dealers at the shop, the
"know-it-all" Kids Stamp Club president, and other "inside"
views of the hobby. But what will really stick is the wonder of learning
that comes alive through stamps. For me, the "visit" to China
was most memorable, followed closely by the lessons learned through the
Canadian "Bluenose" episode. Much recommended! |

The Bluenose is the nick-name of the the quite famous Canadian
fifty cent definitive stamp issued in 1929 that carries the dashing image
of a fishing vessel of the same name. |
