Got two stamps today -- a 291  My Trans-Mississippi page is looking better now, but I don't know if I'll ever be able to fill those remaining two spots (unless I win the lottery).  KirkS |

Stamp collector's rule 38 ss 15 p 2 Whereas any person younger than an older person having a stamp said older person does not have, the younger is hereby directed to give the the older at the older person's recommended price.

Kirk, Very nice. If the scan is true the stamp is the dark sage green variety (same value). Nice light cancel. |

The trans-Mississippi is one of the most beautiful US sets IMHO. And those last 2 are expensive slots to fill :) |

A friend of mine on facebook has the following blocks --- Well he has many plate blocks and probably the most beautiful collection I have ever seen.   Drew |

Russ: the color in the scan is pretty accurate -- my background is just an old piece of black paper, but it's faded a bit and is "purplish" -- the green in the stamp is bright enough that you see immediately that it's not black.
T360 -- thanks. I was very pleased with the centering. It's not perfect, but it's as close as I'll ever get without spending a fortune.

If I'm not mistaken, aren't those 2 Plate blocks (The cattle in Storm & Mississippi Bridge) over $100K CV ? |

RLorenz -- yeah, that's what I'm afraid of -- the $1 and $2 are too pricey for my budget, but maybe, with patience, I'll find an acceptable and affordable example someday
