At great effort I have been able to complete the entire air mail collection for St Lucia (see collection below). Now I need to determine how to present in my album (year, engraver, color, theme etc.)

Some would have been put off by the catalog value of $.40 but I was able to obtain the collection despite the cost.

Now this is the way stamp collecting should be!

way to go - great effort - would have to be the shortest collectable "theme" in stamps - and as to how to present it that is a problem

This rare and complete collection should be mounted on gold trimmed pages in a custom gold trimmed binder with integral lock to protect the contents from casual viewing.

Congratulations! It just goes to show that no matter what the cost or topic when we acquire things we want it is much more fun. I have been told by dealers that they don't stock items from my speciality because they don't keep modern material. (I collect 1964 New York World's Fair along with other world fairs/expositions from the 1960's.)

Here's a silly question: Why did St. Lucia need an airmail stamp? - It seems like a pretty small island.
