Hi, I know nothing about collecting stamps and stamped envelopes. That's why I'm asking here.

Hi, About a year ago I started a discussion regarding my topical of choice, AIDS on stamps. A number of you were quite helpful in pointing out a number of stamps I had not added to my list. I wanted to once again thank you all for your help, and to say that I have posted my collection (now quite...
