 Here's a beautiful sheet--I love the one of Lincoln reading to his son Tad. This is from Gambia 2008--photo courtesy of marlan-stamps.com Thanks! Gussyboy1  |

That is a nice looking sheet - it's too bad I can't say the same for the subject.

That brings up a question.
Do you think A. Lincoln could be elected as POTUS in this age of instantaneous mass communications and celebrity politicians. I mean, he's not the best looking guy to ever be on a stamp . . . . . |

OK I'll bite. Here is my 2 cents.
I think he would be a good contender because he embraced new technology (telegraph), was known as an excellent speaker/debater/argument settler, a good story teller with a sense of humor, hard work didn't bother him and a compassionate family man. Plus the man had charisma. |

 Patricia, I like those as well. Of course, I am a little bias since they were released in my town and I was able to attend the FDOI (first day of issue) ceremony. |
