'Vandemonia' is taken from an old name for the European inhabitants of the Australian State of Tasmania. It was originally named 'Van Dieman's Land' by it's European discoverer, the Dutch explorer Abel Tasman. The European settlers were known as 'Vandemonians'.
My name is John Tollan. I'm from the city of Melbourne in the Australian State of Victoria. For a good number of years I collected Tasmanian postal history, and I've used the 'stamp name' Vandemonia since that time. I've been an eBay member since 17 June, 1999 and have a 100% positive feedback rating as both a buyer and a seller.

WHAT
IS POSTAL HISTORY?
Postal History is the study of material carried by, and related to,
official, local or private mails. It illustrates routes, rates, markings,
usages and other postal aspects, services, functions and activities
related to the history of the development of Postal Services. Postmark
collections (marcophily) demonstrate classifications and/or studies
of postal markings related to official, local or private mails on covers
and other postal items.
Postal History tells the story of how mail has been handled, who has
handled it, and why. Therefore, research is necessary to interpret a
cover and its postal markings. In so doing one comes face to face with
the history and the personalities of a particular event, place or postal
service.
