My Newest Columbian

I don't guess I'll ever be able to justify buying all the Columbians. Of course, I can still lust after them.

Since I'm new here and I wanted to practice uploading images, I scanned my latest acquisition. It came in today's mail and is now my highest value in the set.

The margins aren't the best, but it's clear and sound; it has a faint cancellation in red-ish purple-ish (OK, I don't know my colors :-)



Thanks for looking. I would enjoy seeing scans of your Columbians.

Nice stamp,
Thanks for sharing.

Kirk.. I posted this cover on another thread... Nothing special, but the centering was real nice..

Congratulations on a very nice addition to your collection, KirkS!

Very nice Kirks

Thanks for sharing it with us.

The search is half of the fun, great find KirkS.

Also, had not said it yet welcome to the SCF fold.

Thanks for sharing, KirkS. I too lust after the Columbian stamps!

By the way, welcome from another new member!

Nice light cancel.

Thanks for the welcomes and feedback.

Nice one mate

This is one that I got in a kilo a few months back.

WOW! What a great bullseye. Did your heart skip a beat when you saw it

That's the wonderfully exciting part of going through bulk.... There could be ANYTHING in there

I suspect all of us dream of owning the complete set of Columbians. However, I do not. For your enjoyment I have included pictures of my collection of this issue

Does that mean you don't own the complete set? Or that you don't dream of owning the complete set?

Either way, nice scans. Thanks for sharing.

Very nice stamps, stampnaround. I'm envious!

(I will now sit on my hands and attempt not to visit ebay and other auction sites. )
