While this may seem a rather mundane hobby for a boy like Freddie, in his youth he was an avid stamp collector. In Simon Garfield’s book, “The Error World: An Affair with Stamps”, he described the collection as “artistic”, explaining that Freddie “collected on unusual black album pages and designed his displays with great care for symmetry and color. On one page he used [Great Britain] stamps to spell out the letter ‘F.’”
