This is the American Indian #505 MNH issued 1922-1925. I noticed I picked up a small hair in the left top corner. I had to take a fast look at the stamp I though it was folded.

What is you favorite?

Mk Nice stamp are you scanning or taking photos? I can not seem to get the detail and focus with my digital camera. If a scanner is better maybe I will have to invest in one

Hi Rick......

If you look at my ebay listings, all images are taken with my Nikon 4300 Cool-pix as are most of the images I've posted here.


What camera are you working with ?

Another hobby of mine both digital and wet. Older Nikon DSLR D70 with a macro lens. Having photoshop CS doesn't hurt either.

That was such a pretty stamp I thought I would clean the image up a little for you. I hope you don't mind, if you do I will take it off. I tried to get the hue correct but I may be off since I only have a book to judge the color and hue.

I got tired of my Sony going on vacations without me, so I bought another
camera a Canon PS 590IS from Amazon. It has stabilization which is something
I needed very badly :0

The autofocus and macro are nice and it is relatively inexpensive.

i'm working on completing that 1922-1925 series. my favorite that I have so far is probably the buffalo.

my stamp pictures never turn out right, I think scanning them would be better.
i used to love b&w wet photography but still getting used to digital.

Baomo

If you are also collecting used US I can help you complete this set if you tell me which holes you need to fill, I am sure I used duplicates of the set.
