As an example #522 :- 1) 4 f. outremer 2) ditto sur lettre. 3) ditto Id. seul. Numbers 1 and 2 are easy to understand but I'm not sure about number 3.

For those who use Excel for their collection(s) and are unfamiliar with many of its features, one you'll love is 'Comments'. You can take any cell and add a comment to it, a small text note that only shows when the cursor is run over it. You can tell a cell with a Comment as there is a small red...

Some time ago there was a thread here about free server space for an introductory period of 3 years. Now I cannot find the thread and the link given -- I seem to remember that it was Peter D who posted the message, but I could be wrong. Whoever it was, would you be kind enough to post the link...

Judging from the deluge of emails, both on this group and in private, I wonder whether any of the contributors/lurkers here can provide me with the text of this world wide mega hit in *your* language? French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Gaelic (!), Greek, Russian, Lithuanian, Finnish, Hungarian,...

Many 19th century stamps have an embossed center usually showing a portrait of a king (or queen). The process sometimes causes the edge to cut through the paper. My question is: Is the cut through the paper considered a damage to the stamp, and if so how much of a discount would it warrant (say...

India Revenue Question The scan below raises an interesting question. http://i10.ebayimg.com/02/i/01/12/99/7e_1.JPG This is obviously an Indian revenue. It also, ironically, shows King George VI - the last Emperor of India.

On 2003 October 30 I posted here about finding an apparently untagged Smokey the Bear stamp on FDC, US Scott #2096. Today I received the APEX report stating that, in their opinion, it is a tagging omitted error, used on FDC, genuine in all respects. What fun! -- To reply remove "void."

I've a Scott 2475 (25¢ American Flag) self adhesive thats made from plastic film. This is the first time I've seen a postage stamp made of this. Whatever material they used as the adhesive doesn't come off with water and I'm reluctant to remove it with something else for fear of messing up the...
