      Peter Zimmermann

      Founder

      Peter was an avid stamp collector all His life and started to collect PNC's since beginning 1994.

      He was looking all over the world, to find a suitable solution to display and store his PNC's. Sadly, he could not find anything which was good enough for my prized and cherished covers! 

      So, in 2010 he designed his own system, organized a vacuum-forming tool to produce the windows and organised pre-cut cardboard sheets and made just for his collection pages, which he believed, to do his PNC's justice.

      2022 Peter's dream to offer LIGHT HORSE® Album pages to his fellow collectors came through! With tears in his eyes, Peter sold his stamp-collection; to raise the money for the first order and the rest is history... Light Horse® PNC Albums was Born.
