The Mystery Unravels - Pictured on the PNC3 web site at www.pnc3.org is a scan cropped from a plate strip of 7 stamps submitted by Scott Walker that shows the 'Mystery' Sea Coast printing of 2003, which has die cuts on only two sides. Supporting data was also furnished by Gary Wulfsberg, who will...

Following the irresistible trend of embroidery, chocolate, crystal, etc. stamps, the SNA Postal Office proposes a new, truly revolutionary Sand Stamp. http://www.values.ch/sna-site/rcsd/sand-stamp.htm What makes this stamp very special is the fact that it was manufactured by superposing 200...

The cut piece on LHS of (presumed) 1899 salt tax stamp Anybody have an idea on the ESNA? The paper is very thin, as would be expected on perhaps aerogramme paper. http://groups.msn.com/Stamps/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=478 Thank you

I recall hearing some time ago that someone (probably USPS) would have some sort of educational/classroom materials available for teachers and students in conjunction with the upcoming issuance of these stamps. I have approached the principal of a local school, who seemed enthusiastic about the...

Knowing that the season is definitively over, I took in the last roses from my garden yesterday. They look lovely. At the same I reloaded my old page about roses and their cultural history. If you care to have a peek, here goes: http://shoebox.heindorffhus.dk/frame-Roses.htm Enjoy :-) -- Best...

Caveat: I havn't tried this as I do not have the latest Version. Here's an idea for those perhaps wanting to form their own Collection Database with links to your postage stamp scans. I post this directly from another NG, and is just a FYI, but could turn out to be...

Given that you intended to record every new release world-wide, I'd suggest you would need to scan 27 stamps every day, (weekends included) to keep pace.

Peach State Stamp Show, a national show recognized by the American Philatelic Society, opens Friday, Sept. 24, in Marietta, Georgia.

There is an item on sale in Australia offered as "ex-Pearson." I did a Google search and found several such stamps, and also several philatelists with that name. Apparently he is well known enough to be recognized and respected. Who can tell me who this mysterious Pearson is?

Hello everyone, I am a stamp collector from the United States, and I recenly visited an auction in Prince Edward Island, Canada. I purchased 3 boxes of Canadian First Day Cover Stamps. I am currently trying to sell them on Ebay, but don't have the time to list them week after week. If you are...
