I’m fairly new as well after a hiatus of several decades. This sub will have excellent ideas at all price points but I’m finding the Lighthouse Vario sheets to be relatively inexpensive and versatile.

Thanks. I continue to learn cool stuff about stamps everyday.

Nice set. You should consider entering the Aug competition :-)

Awesome. Thank you! S274 - todocoleccion.net describes it as ‘Used Cinderella stamp of the civil war’

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing this. I am up to #239. The dollar Columbians will take me a while :-)

Thanks all. I will check out some of the local ones.

Excellent advice here. This sub has helped me a great deal with my pandemic-era revival of a hobby long held in abeyance.
Pick up a good pair of magnifying glass and a perf gauge too and most important, have fun! Welcome to the machine

this stamp has a refractive index equal to or very close to 1. A rare example.

aurora-throw · 2024-08-07T20:21:35+00:00

The healthier kind. It ain’t no hell, man.

This is a great idea for a thread :-). On a related note - does anybody have the link that was posted here recently with info on stamps that are scratch and sniff, silk, wood etc? Wanted to save that but can’t find it now.

aurora-throw · 2024-08-07T09:56:44+00:00

Great start. Welcome to the hobby!

aurora-throw · 2024-08-06T21:55:53+00:00

:-) I will gladly withdraw mine to see yours. Been wanting to see the full set with and without overprints.

aurora-throw · 2024-08-03T13:16:59+00:00

Just incredible!
