Tommy Tricker and the Stamp Traveller

The magic works through a special riddle that Ralph recites, which shrinks him down to miniature size and allows him to enter any stamp. Once inside a stamp attached to a letter or postcard, Ralph travels wherever the mail is delivered. The riddle is found hidden in an old stamp album that belonged to Charles Merriweather.

Tommy is characterized as a crafty stamp exchanger and con artist who tricks other collectors. After offering Ralph rare permanent stamps in exchange for the Bluenose, Tommy secretly swapped the stamps and fled with the Bluenose. He sold it to a stamp shop for about $300 to buy groceries, showing he was motivated by money rather than genuine collector interest.

Charles Merriweather was an eleven-year-old boy from 1913 who discovered the stamp travel magic and used it to explore the world. He became trapped inside his own stamp image for 75 years, aging to seventy-one while remaining physically eleven. He hid his priceless stamp collection in a Sydney shop before becoming imprisoned in the stamp itself.

The hidden letters in the album reveal Charles was an eleven-year-old from 1913 who discovered stamp travel.

Ralph deliberately entered the stamp to test the magic riddle after discovering it in Charles Merriweather's old album. He recited the riddle in a park, which caused him to shrink and be drawn into a Mountie stamp on a letter headed for Australia. Nancy and Albert tried to stop him but were repelled by a mysterious force, leaving Ralph to travel alone.

Tommy disguised himself as Charles Merriweather and arrived in Sydney a day before Ralph to search for the grandfather's stamp collection. He was captured and detained by Mad Mike and his partner Dave. Ralph eventually negotiated for Tommy's release by offering a koala from Mad Mike's zoo in exchange for the stamp book and Tommy's freedom.

Ralph's stutter fades away by the time he reaches Sydney. This transformation occurs because his adventure through stamp travel builds his courage and confidence. Tommy even notices the change, commenting that Ralph no longer stutters. The journey helps Ralph overcome his shyness and timidity.

Charles Merriweather hid his priceless stamp collection in a Sydney stamp shop decades ago. The collection was the treasure that Ralph, Nancy, and Albert were searching for throughout their quest. The shop was run by Cheryl's grandfather, who kept the collection safe until the children arrived.

The letter hidden in the album mentions a priceless stamp collection tucked away in a Sydney shop.

Tommy overheard Ralph's plans to find Charles Merriweather's collection and raced to Sydney ahead of them. He disguised himself as Charles to claim the stamp collection for himself, hoping to steal the treasure before Ralph arrived. This scheme failed when Ralph and Cheryl exposed his deception.

After resolving the situation in Sydney, Ralph and Tommy were mailed back to Canada by a kangaroo, which served as an unusual postal carrier in this magical world. They arrived at Ralph's home in Montreal the next morning, delivering Charles Merriweather's stamp book to Ralph's parents and Mr. Bronson.

Mr. Bronson reveals a second Bluenose stamp that shows a boy on the ship's bow holding a briefcase, inscribed with the name "Charles." This stamp depicts Charles Merriweather himself. The stamp had been hidden for decades and was the key to freeing Charles from his imprisonment inside the stamp.

Charles Merriweather discovered the stamp travel magic as a child in 1913 and used it to travel the world. At some point, he became trapped inside his own stamp image and couldn't escape. He remained imprisoned for 75 years until Ralph mailed the stamp to himself, which freed him from the stamp at the end of the movie.

The letters reveal Charles was an eleven-year-old from 1913 who discovered the magic.

Yes. After the final chase through the streets of Montreal, Tommy briefly relapsed and stole the Charles stamp again. However, the ending voice-over reveals that Tommy eventually mailed the stamp to Mr. Bronson, which freed Charles from his 75-year imprisonment inside the stamp.
