Hello, recently I posted to this newsgroup a request for advice on the

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)

(RCSD) What Do You Do With Your Damaged Stamps? by
[email protected]

(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.

My office is located on a main street at the entrance to a multi use

UK Online Stamp Auction by
Bob Ingraham
I will, of course, offer best wishes to "Stamps4Collectors," but I do
wonder: how it is possible for there to be room in the philatelic
marketplace for new auction sites? It seems to me that every couple of weeks
someone announces a new one, and they all seem to share one thing in common
