Kevin Snow, owner of the Capitol Collection, will discuss how the Capitol Collection passport book came into being, and talk about his own journey to visit as many state capitols as he could.
The story of his trip to deliver special Capitol Collection passport stamps includes some amusing anecdotes about tickling kittens or possible electrocutions, depending on which expert you ask. Finally, he’ll relate some of the tales of other capitol travelers and the goings-on at the capitols of today.
