It's a great feeling to finish a page or section. I always get a great sense of satisfaction when I do. Congrats, and may you fill a thousand more!

It probably took me three years or more to fill in the last stamp on the page with Germany 584. Thanks to Dr. Bob I was finally able to do so. I've gone back and looked at it several times since then.

OK, we all know I'm nuts!

Should the good Doctor tell Swabbie, that the stamp is counterfeit ?

Broke would be one way. I have completed my commemorative collection from 1932 through 1969. In addition I have a few years done in the 1970 & 1980's. Lucky most of the 2000's are done.

It is funny though other than the 1940 famous Americans I have not completed a real series.

Good job.

Thank you for your offer but this one is going to take a little time and spare change. It would be the 1922-1925 definitives MNH stamps. There are a total of 23 but I am getting them slowly. I just picked up the 14 cent blue American Indian. The real challenge will be finding decent prices on the last two combined with good MNH stamps. I am half way there though.

This is the only series I have completed. I don't have them in order. They are the 1940 Famous Americans that include Authors, Poets, Scientists, Composers and Inventors.
