You might be a stamp collector if when you buy a packet of nuts you examine the package with pictures of stamps and postmarks on before you touch the nuts.

..and you certainly are a stamp collector, if you keep the packet, and throw away the nuts.  |

You might be a stamp collector if you order a Chinese when you dont particularly want one, because you've ran out of plastic cartons to store stamps in...actually did this last night  |

I think I might be a stamp collector because I find more stamps when - I sweep the floor - Put my hand between couch cushions - Open a magazine or book (where I would've left them for flattening) When my infant crawls into corners and nooks and finds stamps to chew on  |

You may be a Stamp Collector if you are willing to pay $45 to take a table at a local Antique Fair just to see what it's like to be BEHIND a Stamp table !

Quote: knowing your stamp collection is why you passed your history exam Boy does that one ring true!  I was talking with a fellow stamp collector who met a man at a business event and asked "Do I detect a hint of a Ukrainian accent?" The man was taken aback: "Yes, I was born in the Ukraine, but I thought I had a perfect American accent now!" The first man said "No, I'm just winding you up: I saw you have a trident pendant around your neck." The Ukrainian man said "Oh, good. I thought I didn't pay enough attention to my language tapes. But how in the world did you know that trident is a Ukrainian symbol?" "I collect stamps," came the reply. |

You may be a "world wide" collector if you misplace stamps.
I put mine alphabetically in albums till they warrant an album of their own as a dedicated country.
I have completely lost my entire Hungarian Collection ...and it's driving me nuts.
