ILS, which ones are you still missing? I also have a number of extra duplicates from the '20s and '30s that you can have. Let me know. Cheers! |

I was informed recently that this set was the only US stamp set that doesn't have the US (Country of origin) on it. Is that right? |

I very much need (and willing to pay for) them- #325 #327 & #330. It really bugs me seeing those empty spaces I just never see them up for sale or auction used. Any help would be greatly appreciated! ~Jay |

I read that too about the #548-#550. One of the other US oddities is #1580 (as well as #1580c and #1580B) that has no denomination on it. Gee, could it have been the harbinger of the "Forever" stamps?  Naw! Since I've mentioned it, does anyone out there have a #1580B (Perf 10.5 X 11.3) that they wouldn't mind putting on permanent display in my stamp album? |

Most interesting that.
I have a set of those too, and I had never actually noticed that they don't have the country on them. If I had just come across them in a grab bag identifying them would have been interesting. |

Here is a pretty decent copy of a 330 going off in 7 hours of this posting http://www.ebay.com/itm/USA-Scott-3...em2a1682ec2eOnly 1 bid for .50c so far. |

There are a number of 330's and 328-330's available out there. This is a set I purchased (eagerly awaiting their arrival).   |

This might be a stretch but the Lafayette issue of 1977 says US Bicentennial, but doesn't identify it as a US stamp. There's a French guy on it, after all!  note- there are at least 4 other bicentennial issues in '77 and '78 that are similar. That could be your five. (I inadvertently posted this response on the stamps without a country link mentioned above. Could apply here too. Maybe?  ) |

I see them on ebay and such but I meant in here or the other sites I frequent. I should have clarified that upfront I suppose. Yeah I know I could just go to ebay and snatch em up but I like to find the best bang for my buck! I'll get them probably after the New Year or hopefully for Christmas...( hint hint Mrs. Frye if your reading this.  ) |
