Pushing 330,000 All Different Worldwide Stamps In One Collection .

Landoquakes ----- Thinking that it could be a hard sell because of what I see in the pictures .

There is as you said a lack of "highlights " in the scans ,then the description of a lot of duplicate albums ,then stock pages of more duplicates , also extra W.W. albums so we are getting closer to a W.W. accumulation than a collection .

There is a excellent article that was just put out in the Kelleher 's Collector's Quarterly . It subject is "THE QUESTION OF COLOR IN PHILATELY " Not only a good read but the kind of article to save .

floortrader,

The last of my LIBYA- Fezzan-Ghadames pages .

WOW ---Thanks everybody for the 250,000 views .

Hitting this number for a goal and now have to move on with new goals .

250k views, that is a major accomplishment! I enjoy your thread and am thinking 330k or whatever your current count is would certainly be achieveable. In other words having the view count keeping up with your stamp count.

And no, I'm not shamelessly bumping my own post count so as to achieve the golden trophy. I actually have fundamental questions about counting stamps.

Basically, why did you start counting to begin with? How many stamps did you have when you first counted? How tedious is it to maintain your count? I assume based on the title of your thread a block of four counts as a single stamp at least in terms of being all different. Yet perhaps you have a separate distinct and total counts.

That's about it. I'm contemplating a count myself but have plenty to do without another task and am nervous wrt maintaining the count and that becoming all consuming and potentially distracting from the joy of collecting.

Keep posting your work its appreciated.
