To all our customers & friends:

We are happy to announce that Apfelbaum, Inc. has found a new home with Mystic Stamp Company. While we will miss the day-to-day hustle & bustle of running our business, we are very much looking forward to retiring and spending more time with our families, and maybe even starting a new hobby or two. While we know John will miss writing his blog, which has over 1,000 postings on our site, you can still find all his insights here. You will also be able to find our grandfather Earl’s book, Apfelbaum’s Corner, in its entirety, on our site as well. While we are still deciding what we will do with our website, we will let you know in the near future.

Apfelbaum & Mystic have been friendly competitors for 100 years. We have grown the hobby together and worked with Don Sundman for over 50 years. We urge you to contact the friendly people at Mystic Stamp Company if you are interested in selling your stamp collection and, if you are looking to add to your collection, we can think of no better place than Mystic Stamps. You can reach them at Info@MysticStamp.com. We trust Don and so should you.

All of us in the stamp community have been working together for many decades and even though we have only met a relative handful of our customers in person, we feel as though we have been friends for years. We will miss you. We wish you all good luck, good health & good fortune. And we say “so long” feeling very grateful.

John, Ken, Missy & Susie
Apfelbaum, Inc

 
A message from Don Sundman, Mystic Stamp Co

Dear Fellow Collector:

Hello! I’m excited that ApfelbaumInc.com will join and eventually be part of MysticStamp.com. I’ve known and respected the Apfelbaum family since the 1970s. I’ve been both been a customer of Apfelbaum and have sold stamps to them. Apfelbaum is a first-rate organization. Our computer folks are working on a plan for the Apfelbaum website. Stay tuned for updates. I’m looking forward to sharing with you everything about the world of stamps…

Happy Collecting, Don Sundman
