Val and Daz: Collecting History, Sharing Passion
Our story
Welcome to Val and Daz: Where Every Stamp Holds a World of Stories!
Welcome to Val and Daz, where every stamp and collectible tells a story! Founded by Daz, a lifelong collector who discovered his passion during 12 years of service with the Royal Navy, our shop is a reflection of a life spent appreciating the world’s unique history and culture. As a young sailor, traveling the globe inspired a fascination with stamps and banknotes, each one a piece of history carrying tales of different lands and eras. Now, with his wife Val by his side, Daz brings that enthusiasm to collectors around the world.
From Newcastle Roots to Global Collecting: Sharing Our Passion with Every Stamp!
Back home in Newcastle, Daz became a notable local figure, owning the Newcastle Diamond Speedway for 19 years and the Newcastle Vipers for 5 years, experiences that strengthened his love for community and collecting. A die-hard Newcastle United fan, he brings a touch of the team’s classic black-and-white spirit into our shop’s branding, symbolizing dedication and authenticity. Our collection of rare and high-quality collection features some of the most distinctive stamps from around the world. Our logo captures a cherished moment: Val and Daz holding a rare stamp, symbolizing our shared passion and commitment to finding pieces that bring history to life.
