search this forum for soaking.. there are some really great threads on here about how to do it.. once you do you will see its not hard just takes a little time .... BTW
Please note - Before soaking stamps off of an envelope, please be aware that the stamps can often be more valuable and apreciable while they are still on the envelope. If you have a question about that, I would suggest posting a scan of the type of material you plan to soak, and we can advise you.
What smauggie said. A stamp can be extremely common when soaked, but on envelope a whole lot of things can add to its value. Besides, once you have soaked it off, you cant put it back on the envelope, whereas there is no problem in waiting a bit with the soaking.
The stamps have been torn from the envelopes. the post marks are all frome the 1930's some from the 1940's. If I can figure out how to post a photo I will. Thanks
