Hi,

I have inherited a large collection of stamps that my dad started when I made my appearance in 1984 and that I later helped him to work on.

I am going to be carrying this on for him in hopes that I can o e day pass it along to my munchkins.

I lost interest (as kids do) so now have no idea whether my dad managed to put any of them in any perticular order or not.

I am happy to see that the old album I made (out of an old artists pad) is still in with everything which brought back good memories.

Anyhow I hope you all dont mind me bombarding you all with questions and as soon as I can figure out how to on my tablet I will get pictures uploaded so you all will know what challenge I am facing.

Thanks again.

Jon

Also once you have hit a post count of 50 you can begin using the PM system to message fellow members as well as use the marketplace where you can buy, sell and trade stamps. Guidelines for the marketplace are here.

Should you have any questions or issues please feel free to PM one of the Admins or Mods (you can PM them any time after you join... no need for the 50 posts for them) and we will be sure to get back to you when we are able.

Should you have any difficulty while posting here our How-to section located here may be of some assistance.

Once again welcome to Stamp Bears and we all look forward to hearing more about you and your collections.

Did you hear the joke about the unstamped letter? You wouldn't get it.

	My main collecting interest is the Fire Service (stamps, First Day Covers, postcards and slogans). I also collect Birds, Lighthouses, Civil War, Frogs, Rugby and Mills. My country collections are South Africa, Australia and Rhodesia. It never stops adding on. I would consider myself more of a topical collector.
