Hi, In the introduction I mentioned I had a collection of Antarctic postal covers and related, mainly Australian. So here are 2 just for show and tell :)







I am also posting some other photos in another thread of world stamps. If you want to see more of these, It goes from the first one above to about 1980s when I lost a little interest :( Hope you enjoy them.

Thanks for the compliments and interest! I will take some more photos tonight and post them in this thread. I enjoy showing, as what good is a collection if no one stimulates you to continue with it and show it to others. I can't remember why I decided to stick with A.A.T , rather than include other countries, although Triggersmob could probably tell me why :)

Very Nice Jim

This is yet another Country(or is it a territory) that I had not heard of.

I like A.A.T. because, not only to they have some beautiful stamps, but they are a fairly small set to collect. Unlike many countries that release thousands of different stamps, A.A.T. only has a few hundred, so it's easy to collect the lot.

Here are two more covers from A.A.T. , I hope not to bore you. They really aren't as dingy as they look, I just don't have the white balance correct.

Steve,
Which stamp caught your eye? Let me know if you want to see specific stamp, I have plateblocks of many in the same collection. Happy to show what I have as long as most seem to like them. It also makes me exercise my old stamp skills and has brought many questions on current techniques to mind. I will make a different thread to ask those.

Desertgem, the cover with the Penguin on, has four stamps. I have the Brown 5D one, but I am missing the the other three from my collection.

Triggersmob and all, here are some more covers. I have some AAT stamps, not on covers that I am putting in another thread so I don't conflict the forum titles.





I don't mind sharing at all, but tell me when enough already!
