  1. One of (the four) #stamp albums I got from my grandma. She brought ages ago second-hand. It's got some cool penny reds that I need to research (same century as penny blacks, but not really worth anywhere near).

    1980s stamp expo first issues. And first day issues of the QEII's mother's 80th birthday.

    Also has a complete set of 1981 christmas stamps drawn by school kids... apart from that nothing much.

  2. Dang thought I had all the regular sized machin #stamps from 1967-69 but I realised there is a 1'9 and a different colour 8d... who tf had an idea to just change the colour for no reason lol.

    Luckily I have the rarer turquoise 8d stamp tho.... can't be that hard to find the common red one right??

  3. How interesting is this!!!

    It is a postcard stamp from Bavaria in Germany. I kinda just assumed it was so old that it was before perforatated stamps were a thing, but it is actually a stamp printed onto a postcard.

    Kinda neat idea! Save the need to buy a stamp and a postcard.

    It is from between 1892 and 1906. You can tell it was from a used postcard as it has cool writing on the back. It also shows it was in a stamp book at one point too!

  4. So I now collect stamps :3 and now my sister does too. I got a bag of like 500 for christmas which I've still not sorted through.

    I was gonna go to an antiques place today to buy some but it was closed. Luckily I found a charity shop that sold a few pages of an album someone donated.

    I brought two pages (stamps on both sides) and Princess Diana ones. About £13 altogether.

    I'm tryna build topical collections.
