Well I have started bidding on U.S.19th century covers..if I can find local post offices without paying the finders fee all the better..for now I am concerned with the condition of the envelope. the stamp and the cancel..we always pay too much when starting out on a topic but that evens out with knowledge and experience..been there before !!
You should talk to Ottawa Mike. He's been big-time into covers this past year, and has been collecting postal history of Oswego Cty, NY (pre-1900). He could give you some tips, etc.
David as you know..my buying would be very modest compared to the Big Guys...i am just starting out with the ordinare stuff !! actually I sent you an e mail asking assistance !
Thanks T360 I am finally getting interested in the mail of my native land !! Bobgggg you think there might be something for me in the million dollar collection ????
