Vintage ballpoint signature, "Ayn Rand,” on an off-white 8.5 x 9.5 multi-signed sheet removed from a ledger for a 1960s meeting for the Collectors Club of New York, one of the oldest existing philatelic societies in the United States. Includes 10 other multi-signed ledger sheets from the event. In fine condition.
Accompanied by a 12-page softcover booklet containing an essay by Rand entitled ‘Why I Like Stamp Collecting,’ which reads, in part: “I am often asked why people like stamp collecting. So widespread a hobby can obviously have many different motives. I can answer only in regard to my own motives, which I have observed also in some of the stamp collectors I have met. The pleasure lies in a certain special way of using one's mind. Stamp collecting is a hobby for busy, purposeful, ambitious people…because, in pattern, it has the essential elements of a career, but transposed to a clearly delimited, intensely private world.”
