Giuseppe Di Stefano dead at 86 -- a stamp? by Tony Vella
Giuseppe Di Stefano passed away at age 86 at his home near Milan yesterday. The world has lost one of the greatest tenors of all time. His 50s and 60s recordings of E' la solita storia and Core 'Ngrato are the best renditions I have ever heard. I have written to Poste Italiane suggesting a...

Stampex by Tony Clayton[_2_]
Had a rather frustrating trip to Stampex on Thursday. I did come away with some scarce Italian postal stationery and a few GB booklets, but what were very noticeable were the very high prices being charged by the continental dealers present compared with UK dealers and also compared with Ebay. I...

Frustration by Tony Clayton[_2_]

(maybe OT) Ethical issue by Edwin
Hi all, When I buy or exchange from or with others, the postage stamps were not cancelled in some cases. This means that I may send to foreign collectors for "re-using" it so as to reduce his/her postage cost. Do you think it is not ethical?

Dear all, I come from Hong Kong. I have been actively collecting stamps for few years. And right now, I have some stamps. My preference is NO CTO. But I find that it is very difficult to identify in some cases. I did buy one Singapore used set, the cancel is not partial of the circle, they...

Marking of Fake Stamps by [email protected]
Hi - I've decided to write lightly, in pencil, "FAUX" on the back of stamps that are truly fakes / forgeries / etc. I know that many of us, including me, frown on marking a decent stamp, but what about forgeries / fakes and so forth? Maybe a small rubber stamp would be better to mark them, but I...

Sorry for the double-post, but I realized I didn't prefix with "(RCSD)", and some readers with filters are going to miss it. If you don't have such a filter, please forgive me: Does anyone know of a commercial source for archival white envelope stiffeners, sized to fit U.S. FDCs (#6 3/4)? ...
