Free to a good home -
I got a bunch of these in a box-lot a while back and I have a few spares if anyone is interested. I had to overlap a couple to get them all in the scanner, but they are all complete with stamp and cancel. They are also not as washed-out as the scan might suggest.



I might be able to find a couple more, if so I will add them. But basically there's a few Postcode-related slogans, then a mix of modern inked and spray cancels. Including the, "World's Greatest Hobby" cancel, which is nice to have whole.
THE DOWN SIDE - I have aired these out as much as possible, however a couple still have a slight smokey whiff to them (previous owner's doing )

Apparently activated charcoal is a good means to get rid of unpleasant scents, put item and charcoal in a sealed container (preferably from glass), without the charcoal being in contact with the item, and leave it for a few days.

Nice collection Stampgal!

What about Baking Soda? gets whiffs out of fridges in no time,
put in a ceramic dish and into the shoebox with the stamps,
may do the trick.
