Collecting interests[edit]
Berolzheimer had a number of postage stamp collections, but specialized in the collection and study of postal stationery, including postal cards and postal envelopes. Because of Berolzheimer's background as a chemist, he was able to study, and write on, variations of paper, inks, and color characteristics of the stationery.
Along with Victor Berthold and Julius (John) Murray Bartels, he was known[by whom?] as one of the “three B’s” of postal stationery.[citation needed]
Postal literature[edit]
Berolzheimer wrote numerous articles on postal stationery and authored a column in Stamps magazine. He was also a consultant on postal stationery to the Scott's Specialized Catalogue of United States Stamps. He also authored the Bartels Postal Card Catalogue and served as advisory editor of the Thorp-Bartels Catalogue.
Philatelic activity[edit]
Because of his expertise, Berolzheimer served on the expert committee of the Philatelic Foundation.
Honors and awards[edit]
