Machin Bisects by

An interesting pair of covers:

envelope and the sorting office to agree. (Is...

steve_PE
I have a few used 3 cent Prince Edward Island postal stamps from 1942/43 time frame. They are in decent condition. Are these worth anything? There are at least 3 different graphics used on them.
Thanks

Scott numbering system by
Ralphael1
Scott numbering system is about to send me to the funny farm where all
good wackos go.
Example: Catalog note after Scott 2597, "Nos. 2595-2597 also available
in strips spaced for use in affixing machines to service first day
covers."
In my opinion that is a coil strip and needs a number, Scott...

Tony here is some details on your cover.
(I do note you are becoming more focused on Travancore, this is to be
understood and expected, as collectors become more refined in their path)
I think CMS is combined Missionary Service, and Bishop Corfield was Church
of England.

Curiosity Corner #139: Hidden in Canada by
Rodney
Here's a common old issue, that intrigued me when I was a kid.
http://groups.msn.com/Stamps/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=533
But, did you know it has a date, micro printed in the design?
You can just make it out on my scan.
(apologies for the scan, an old scan of a duplicate)

Mass scanning of stamps question by
Bill P
I have a need to scan thousands of stamps.
I would like to place a few dozen on the scanner at a time, and then
have some software automatically ( if possible) separate the
individual stamps into separate image files. Does anyone know of the
name of such software?
Thanks In Advance
Bill
