Last for about month and half going through Housing my stamp
Collection. I was hoarder rather than collector, as my field of
work did not permit me time. Would grab stamps and house it.
May it be Glassine envelopes or Glassine loose papers.
Very very few I hinge if at all.
Now after long37 years of residence in one larger place, relocated
myself to defferent STATE took 6 years to see and do necessary
So started arranging.
Since 2005 Issues of USA packages coming from USA Philatelic
fulfil centere there is pungent oder, I think this is PE used
in packaging.
Learnt from ordeal....
Always pack your Collection safe, when moving from Country to country or within Country. No matter how small or large is your
collection.
1. Phase one go head and house, anyway either in Parchment Envelopes,
Stockbooks. you will go to second Phase of arrgements.
2. Always remove stamps from Packaging, PE material will harm in
long term...
3. Frequetly check those locations for bugs, Dust, Vapour condencetion
discoloration and sticking of stamps or other material,mold,Foxing
etc.
4. Find out material to Learn How to Store your Collection proper
way. as much as you can find, though now a days site like SCF
lot one can learn, from other Experienced colletors. Recently
I learned a lot from here. After this one can get good Idea
how he/she wants Arragments.. Albums,Stockbooks,Stock Pages
and exccess stuff housing.
I have still long way to go,still bringing Materials from Rental
Storage Area.
Cheers
