The sometimes-tedium of stamp collecting... - Carmen - 25-11-2025

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?
