Hi all from Winnipeg, Manitoba.
I've been collecting stamps for approximately 40 years (started when I was in the first grade).
I collect worldwide, but specialize in Canada, U.S., G.B., Ireland, Australia, and U.S. and Canadian Precancels.
I'm also into coins and banknotes and collect other things as well.
I usually buy at auction sites online these days, as well as from the Post Offices of the countries I collect, and from one dealer here in the city.
One thing I love to buy is old collections -- it's interesting to see how someone else organized their album.
I've been lurking for awhile checking out the community, and look forward to posting when I can.

Welcome Wpg to the SCF and a big "G'dday, eh?" from the Nation's Capital!
I notice you collect Cdn precancels. I collect the Empire of the King George VI reign, and I made my own pages for the Cdn precancels of the reign.
I also collect U.S. airmail, specialise in the U.S. Americana definitive series, and the commems 1976-1995.
Look forward to seeing you more often on the SCF.
Cheers,

We can't wait to see & hear more about your collections. I have various collections as well: US stamps, select US town precancels, Abe Lincoln worldwide, and route 66. That's just stamps, I also dabble in coins & currency, World Fair admission tickets, postcards, & hard rock cafe pins. I have seen you posting to some of the same topics I have. Welcome! |
