A
Philatelist
💡 Explanation:
A philatelist is a person who collects or studies postage stamps and related materials. The term comes from 'philately' meaning the study of stamps. An acrobat performs gymnastics, a hawker sells goods, and a potter makes ceramics. This is the precise technical term for a stamp collector.
