Phillumeny is simply the name given to the hobby of collecting Matchbox Labels, Matchbooks (Matchcovers) and any memorabilia connected with matches.

I have approximately 35,000 in my collection, which have been gathered over a period of 44 years from all parts of the world. It is a fascinating hobby which has, perhaps, not really received the recognition that it should.

I was pleased to find, that there were many other people with the same interest, and some of these I have included in my 'Links' page.
