The Young Stamp-Collectors

Irish artist and suffragette Sophia Rosamond Praeger (1867-1954) was a member of the London-based women artist’s organization, the Suffrage Atelier. She wrote and illustrated twenty children’s books, including The Young Stamp-Collectors (1985) which is considered one of her best works. It was originally rejected by her publishers and was only published over thirty years after her death by her good friend Godfrey Vinycomb.
