Hi, new guy here. I've been a collector for fifty years. At about the age of seven, I responded to a matchbook cover and sent in my dime. It's been a fun ride ever since. I don't specialize in any one country or topic. I guess I like them all. Like others my interest in my collection has waxed and waned over the years. At the present I am trying to come out of a slump after having lost a couple of my books to a break-in in my home. That's been a couple of years now and I'm hoping interaction with my peers will bring me to open the books and start collecting again. Anyway, this seems like a nice place. I've got my scanner and image accounts and know how to use them. Here's hoping you all will be patient with me if I make a mistake, answer my questions and hopefully I can contribute something here and there. OG

Thanks folks for the warm welcomes. I've been looking around and getting familiar and find I have a question right off the bat. Is it okay to respond to an older post if I have something to add? thanks, OG |

I am really a novice at all of this and would welcome any support, suggestion, on doing thing right! Thanks all and I look forward to chatting. R7Castro
