Not sure if I'm posting in the right forum, but I am new to this but my grandfather collected for years since he was a little boy. Came across one of his books and was wondering if anyone could tell if there was any value. I know the pics are not of close ups. But if something stands out I will post better pics. Thanks everyone.

Hi atom, welcome to the forum. Nice stamps you have there and a great start to a wonderful collection. The stamps that I can see are all low value, but that does not mean that I am missimg something. Individual scans in the proper section would help, but I would say it's a great starter set of stamps. (don't quit your day job though) = welcome to the forum and let's see some more! - jeff

Thanks everyone,
Great to be here and yes a good start. So many to go through but thought I would start here. As he got older he continued to collect through his life and was a military career man starting back to WW2 and was collecting stamps from around the world.

Hello & . I really like your scott# C23 Airmail stamp, I always liked the color scheme as it just seems to jump right off the paper! Also a little constructive criticism for you- If you are getting serious about your collecting then you might consider getting a proper album or stockbook that has acid-free archival paper to protect your hard work from discoloration and other damage. Thank you for sharing your images and feel free to ask some questions as there is a wealth of knowledgeable folks on this board who love to help. Thank you -Jeff

Hello atom, welcome!

Nice book of stamps.

I haven't seen these three stamps from page 5 myself and would enjoy a closer look sometime.



Thanks.
