Putting aside the topics of "growing", "important for me", "incomplete", and so on... I would say that I've a:

.- Pretty good and complete Barcelona postmarks collection; but, as always, lacking some desirable items.
.- Pretty good Barcelona cinderellas collection (I don't know if it ranks as "stamp collection")
.- Pretty good Estonia Independence 1990-1992 collection
.- Good Scandinavian collections
.- Less than average UK and Germany collections.

Anyway, and going back to the topics, all of them are important and unique to me...

Hi Partime,

obstreperous - disorderly, undisciplined, unmanageable, and difficult to control are some of its meanings. Fits my collection too.

For a worldwide collector like me this is really easy question - "Under construction, now and always".

I would say middle class. I have a good representation of Canada's stamps. Still need a few of the very high priced classics, and it's time to get to work on the provinces with a little more serious conviction.

I see World class, Upper middle class, lower class so staying along those lines I'd say mine is poverty level :)

Since I collect WW I have to say "very incomplete". My US is about half complete with most MNH (and I'm happy about that).
"Completist" issues have been discussed in other threads, so I'll just say that my goal is acquiring ten percent of most (all?) countries.
Summary "working (on it) class".

For me It is an unorganized pile-it program. I will start something... get distracted by something else.... and leave what I was working on in a pile for later.
