Londonbus1- If I ever find some of the flag stamps, I'll let you know. I know I threw a lot of them away  (I hope I don't get blackballed or censured for admitting this!) But like I said, I was pretty ignorant about the huge variety of flags back then. Ziggy9- Actually, a church in Pennsylvania collected them for me from the members and they counted them prior to giving them to me. It took me months to go through them. Philb- Even though I disposed of an undetermined number of US flag stamps, I am to my wife's dismay, hopelessly enslaved to accumulating. I have no idea how many I have nor even where all of them have been stored. I only know that the stamps are in 4 different houses.  Marty |

You know you are a stamp collector if you are more interested in the stamp on the envelope rather than its contents . |

You know you are a stamp collector if..... you think that signing up for foreign catalogs and request forms is like playing lottery, you may get lucky and get some cool stamps (more times than not)  You know you are a stamp collector if..... You send yourself postcards when traveling  |

You might be a stamp collector if you quit smoking and spend that money on stamps! You might be a stamp collector if you convince your wife to add a new category to the monthly family budget! (Both of which I am currently working on by the way)

You might a stamp collector when mailing a bill or letter you have second, third & forth thoughts about keeping the stamp instead of using it.

...the first stop while at the State Fair is the Post Office to acquire the event cover & postmark.
...Your 2 year old son knows that dad goes to the post office on Saturdays (when not working) to purchase stamps.
