Henry L. Gitner
Henry has been an avid stamp collector for over 35 years. He became interested in stamp collecting at only 8 years old. His passion grew in these early years until, along with 2 other classmates in Yorktown Heights, he started a business selling postage stamps to collectors in 1975. The boys engaged in international advertising and mail order sales while still in high school, gaining the respect of several in the European philatelic community. That same year, at the record young age of 16, he was asked to manage the auctions for the American Helvetica Philatelic Society, a group engaged in the serious study of the stamps of Switzerland. He attended Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster PA taking primarily economics and business courses. Henry continued his business venture with an older colleague while in college. This became a full time occupation in Paramus, NJ. In 1981, Henry bought out his partner and moved up to Middletown, NY. He has been involved in all areas of the business, buying and selling and now primarily with buying and marketing. He is a member of the American Stamp Dealers Association, the American Philatelic Society and over 30 other specialized philatelic societies. Henry is well-known in the philatelic world to be very knowledgeable in many specialties of the stamp business and is often called upon for advice and expertise from all over the U.S. And he now writes the “Stamp Tips” weekly in Linns Stamp News.
