All About the Hobby of Philately
(Stamp Collecting) 

Types of Collections: Event Covers

Event Covers can be an exciting addition to your collection. There are many types of events that can be part of a specialized collection of African Americans on Stamps. One of the most popular is African American in sports. The cover illustrated below is by Warren R. Reed (Wild Horse Cachets). Warren hand draws and hand paints all his covers and they are released in very limited editions. 

Collecting Event Covers enables the collector to acquire covers of sports figures and other celebrities for whom there may not have been an actual stamp issued and adds a much wider scope to an African American Stamp Collection.

One of the Sports figures for whom there is no U.S. stamp issued is Tiger Woods. I have scanned in a collection of Tiger Woods Event Covers for your enjoyment
