Here's a set of prexies from my stockbook. I was lucky to get them all - usually I always end up with "short sets"  The image is large, so I've linked them from my website. I apologize if I've overloaded dial-up users.  |

Nice prexies Kirk. Apparently, from what I see/hear at stamp shows they pose a particular challenge on covers. |

Nice! I have some of these and I am going to try to complete the set. Was there any particular one that was hard to find? |

The High values can be hard to find, which is normally true of any series. |

The $1 isn't too bad, the $2 and $5 have 2008 catalog values around $4 and $3, respectively. The whole set (used) catalogs for $13. A mint set is a mere $145  I don't collect covers, but I bet it would be a challenge to get all 32 on cover. KirkS |

Thanks for sharing Harry.
They look good to me -- of course, there's no such thing as an ulgy stamp. (Well, almost :-)

Very nice sets of prexies! I like your different shades, nugget.
Specialists try to find "solo" (single stamp) usages for as many as they can on cover, which can be tough. |
