Paul Buchsbayew

Paul began collecting stamps as a young boy. In fact, his hobby was the impetus for his father’s founding of Cherrystone. With close to 50 years of philatelic experience, he attributes the success of Cherrystone to his knowledge and love of stamps. He is a member of A.I.E.P. (Association Internationale des Experts Philatelie) and is a recognized expert in Russian material, which he has exhibited around the world.

Josh, who represents the “Third Generation”, began working at Cherrystone in 2002 after a career in the financial world. As an appraiser and lot describer, Josh has had vast experience with stamps of the world. His personal interest is in United States Classics.
