U.S. Scott 245 OG not hinged. Email me if interested richardziggy65@gmail.com

Hey all! Can anyone help me out with this: AI tells me this is a 1939 Egyptian revenue stamp, value 1 mil.

But I have been looking in the Scott catalog and CANNOT find it anywhere in Egypt. Probably Over-50 eyes missing it. So does anyone know the Scott number for this? Unless of course AI has it completely wrong and it's not from Egypt at all, which simply wouldn't surprise me.

THANKS!

Although I love stamp collecting and all its varied tasks, can I get an Amen from everyone, that some of it is tedious, right? Right now, I'm cataloguing a great album of Roger Tory Peterson-illustrated Audubon FDCs which I acquired (perhaps from one of the forum members?! ) at October's Kingston Stamp Show. They commemorate the anniversary of his birth. 

Each is a beautiful piece of art... from 16 different countries, 2 different stamps each, hence 16 different databases in EZStamp, with two stamp records for each. 32 entries, with of course, 16 pics of the cover itself because I'm taking the trouble to do that for this. Thank goodness for Google Drive and how it simplifies me getting the pics into my Stamp Collecting directory.

Ya, tedium. But at least I get to Look At The Pretty FDCs, ya know?   So what's your version of Tedium?

Hi all! Wondering if anyone else here is a subscriber to the Quarterly Packs. I ask because I re-subscribed to them earlier this summer (rather than going out to the Post Office to get them) and was told that my subscription should begind with QP3 (June to Sep). HOWEVER, I have not yet received it, nor has my credit card been charged that I can tell, which leads me to believe I may simply have slipped through the cracks.

But please confirm for me: have you received QP3 in the mail yet? That way I'll know to give them a call and look into it. If not, when do we usually receive it... later this month? December?

Thanks!

I sell on Hip stamps to United States and use these stamps well U.S. higher amount stamps. I was talked into buying these new Christmas stamps to send all my sales with. Do you like them? Remember keep your shipping cheap/ cute to make a sale.

My question is why was this revenue stamp applied to the back of this cover?  1948 Lebanon  C 122 and C? payed Air mail to Chicago  from Michel Andros in Beirut  A car part dealer ship. They canceled a precancel as well. I wonder if it was used to help pay the airmail amount. But A revenue would be an ill legally used. I see someone listed it as postal tax. That would be new to me? Perhaps a War Tax type charge.

Finding the needle in the hay stack comes as a normal thing for me collecting. Like this beautiful  1986 Scott 2048 removed from souvenir sheet and used. They were sold used in the souvenir sheets, But with a flower pre cancel First day September 23, 1986. This one was removed and used as normal postage. It is a scarce use. Its too bad it was removed from cover. used 1987,May 4th. In China. Enjoy  this large Stamp. What makes this a scarce usages is the fact its used in regular mail even though its not the first day its still scarce.

The autumn 2025 Stamps and Their Stories series presented for the Seniors Association of Kingston completed its run on Monday. The participants really enjoyed hearing from our group of talented speakers. They learned, they laughed, and some may return for the spring series.

A big thank you to our members who devoted time and expertise to develop their talks, used their initiative to find the little room hidden away in the centre of the church, and demonstrated a love of stamps while telling some great stories. We were a darned fine bunch of philatelists! 

In order from week 1, our guest speakers were: Jim Gould, Bob Gardner, Paul Fleet, Roy Lingen, Debbie Lingen, Richard Weigand, Hugh MacDonald, Ted Luhtala, and Val Mayers. Our week 9 panellists Jim Gould, Al Herrington, and Val Mayers helped me end the series with storytelling and a show and tell around the big library table. 

Thank you all for making my job so easy and representing the Kingston Stamp Club so well!
