"The Stamp Collection at the Spellman offers a surprisingly lively romp through snail-mail history."  Boston Magazine recommendation.

" The Museum was recently voted one of the three best Museums in the Metrowest area in the Community Newspaper annual readers' poll. The Museum's gift shop and  bookstore were also selected number one in Weston."

"Snail Mail is Cool at the Weston Museum" - Headline in Horizon, the AAA travel magazine

Children are welcome to search our two-cent boxes of United States and worldwide stamps to help them get started on their own stamp collection.  All our gallery exhibits have special stamp hunts for children to do and to win  stamp prizes. Currently on view is  

"Old Glory, The American Flag on Stamps".

Also see our Flag Stamp mosaic made by visitors to our July 4 Family Day.

 Every child who visits the Museum takes home a free packet of stamps and tips about how to start a collection.

Don't like waiting in long lines at the post office to buy your first class stamps?
The Museum is also an official US post office and sells all current US Stamps.  Stamps are sold during regular Museum hours (even on Sundays).  Note, however, the Museum cannot mail packages or do registered mail

Do you have a stamp collection collecting dust in your closet?  Did a relative give you their stamp collection and you have no idea of its value.? The Museum offers professional evaluations on the weekends for a nominal fee.  Call the Museum for more information and to schedule an appointment.

Did you watch the World Cup? On display now are several stamps and envelopes issued by the South African Post Office celebrating the 2010 World Cup.
