Hi,

I am new to this forum and new to stamp collecting. I recently purchased a new sheet of stamps at my local post office. It is of the "Legends of Hollywood" series. my question is this: what is the best way to frame these stamps? are there any special frames that are used to display these stamps? Sorry for the "simplistic" question, but as I stated about, I am new to all of this.

Thank you,

Tom

Are you wishing to display your stamps in a picture frame? If so be careful about exposure to light it can damage your stamps. Most collectors use stamp albums and for unused (mint) stamps place them in archival safe, non pvc stock pages or mounts sized to fit your stamp sheet. If you have any other question please feel free to ask.

tom,
We were all new to stamp collecting at some time. Some people longer ago than others. Be sure to check out some of the polls and other postings. There is a lot of information available to you here. Plus, everyone is very nice. Let us know what brought your to stamps and what you are collecting.
