I'm too lazy to look all these up. Does anything jump out as particularly collectible/valuable? All are unused never hinged. Received from grandma in the early 70s. Unfortunately most are slightly curved due to sitting in the same envelope for 40 years. I'm happy to provide more detailed pictures of individual stamps if necessary. I suspect they're all relatively common but I don't know.

Welcome to the forum, Kbbpll,

As you suspected, nothing jumps out as having very great value. All look very nice, but, unfortunately, very common. Please keep posting your questions, and maybe something good will pop out.

Although common you still have a great start to a nice Stamp collection. I want to add that stamp collecting is not an investment and most aren't valuable, at least monetarily speaking but is for fun and enjoyment. If you want a little more information on what you have you maybe should look on the Swedish Tiger site. I'll provide the link. All you need do is to locate your stamp and click on it. Also, if I haven't greeted you yet -welcome aboard! I hope you decide to pursue your Grandma's hobby, it's a lot of fun. Best wishes -ILS

Thanks a lot for the replies. That link is fantastic and I will be using it too. I have a bunch more used to go through. I was curious about value in terms of deciding which ones to try to preserve a little better than they are stored now. Mostly I'm hoping my kids will get into it like I did when I was their age.
