Collectors Weekly published an interview with Chicago-based documentarian Mark Cwiakala, who grew up surrounded by the stamps collected by his father and grandfather. Mark never collected, but eight years ago, he teamed with executive producer Jonathan Singer to go on a globetrotting journey, cameras in hand, to find out what exactly made stamps so irresistible to so many philatelists.
Interviewees in Freaks & Errors: A Rare Collection will include the usual complement of wealthy middle-aged men who are just a tad kooky, as well as atypical collectors such as 30-something singer and actress Jackie Tohn, tennis star Maria Sharapova, and Chicago Sun-Times columnist Neil Steinberg.
