Newfoundland Early Stamps 1-15 From The 1860-S

I've recently scanned my entire Newfoundland collection. Mostly mint, just a couple used. Joining this community has inspired me to scan them and share. Hope you all don't mind the singularity and this is ok. If so, I'll be happy to post them all over time?? I have all but 15 of the known 320 Scott primary stamps for Newfoundland--so pretty darn complete. And 14 of these are the $5,000 to $50,000 ones (so beyond my reach). These are just my best in a Lighthouse album.

I'd appreciate any comments, observations and in particular--I am ignorant of the whole aspect of re-entries and positions; so I'd love to expand my understanding in that area. (like what the heck is a re-entry and a position 49?)

I've attached the entire page and one close up of my favorite individual stamp on the page (its #11). Let me know if anyone wants to see a close up of another one.

Again, hope my sharing images is not against the rules or too show-off-ish...

Please show off more! I for one love seeing other peoples collections. Nice stuff.

Great stuff! I'm a Newfoundland collector as well and enjoy seeing what others have. Perhaps you could show your 1861 stamps? My most recent acquisition was the Balbo overprint.

tommy, this great, more more! How about all the airmails you have?

Great stamps Tommy

I really love all those classic period stamps.

nice collection! Is your collection composed just of stamps at this time? If you do have any covers, I would love to see them!

Superb!

Great collection.

I'm a Newfoundland fan in both Coins and Stamps

Thanks to all.

I'll post the next page (1861) tonight under a different thread.

I've also got all the airmails, (excepting the big $$$ ones), so I'll post those.

in terms of covers, ncbuckeye asked and I've got about 300+ of those, and have already posted a bunch of those already on this community... hard to do them all--but if there is something you want to see, just let me know.

stay tuned for more...

Great display Tommy !

For explaination on re-entries see this site http://www.re-entries.com/
Position 49 refers to the position of the stamp on a sheet. For example, position 49 on a sheet of 100, it is the second to last stamp on the 5th row. Re-entries are constant on every sheet and, a particular one is always found at the same position.

Yes, great thread topic and great pictures.

I have a couple of packets of Newfoundland that I need to sort and mount. I collect Canada and want to expand to include the provinces.

Coriandre,

This link is exactly what I was looking for.

Many many thanks...and curse you because now I will have to go back through all my stamps and look for fresh or initial entries...

Tommy..

I hope you don't mind giving your impression of some of my early Newfoundland, as I am unclear about the identification. I am a WW classical collector, and have no specialized knowledge of the early issues. Obviously color, and mesh/no mesh are some of the variables.

1 or 15A or ?

Any impressions you can give are very much appreciated!

Thanks!

Beautiful. Show us more.

JKJBlue: I will check it out tonight and be happy to share impressions. I joined this group to pass on what I know, so bring it on...

Zipper: not sure if your comment was to JKJBlue's nice stamp or my original post. if the latter--search on Newfoundland under the Canada forum, and you will see every one of my 25+ pages from my Newfoundland collection, which I posted over the last 2 months. I've acquired every single mint stamp for the country (except for the 9 super expensive ones). Happy to share specific images to anyone...

Tommy- You are the one!

I look forward to your evaluation.

( And I have some more..to be posted later. )
