I am new at collecting because I inherited a family of many new and old stamps. Instead of letting them sit in boxes, I've decided to research and share some of the items that I have and find out more about them. So far it has been fun yet kind of exhausting. Right now I am focusing on Republic of China stamps with mis-matched postmark and stamp issue date of 1981.
Part of the fun of stamps is having that link to the past. Knowing where the stamps come from, from fanily or other collectors that is, makes them that much more special somehow.
Can't wait for you to share some of your collection with us. you'll find that this forum has lots of knowledgeable and "quirky' collectors to help and entertain you.
Welcome jennie. Dive right in and have fun but, beware of concentrating on a small niche too early. Relax and don't let it become work. Burnout is always a threat especially for beginning collectors. Good luck and let us know if we can help.
Jennie, welcome aboard. I am a newbie myself and only joined a few days ago. This is a great site for information on a vast array of stamp subjects and if you have questions, the members are very willing to provide answers. Regards Mike
