Hello all, my Grama passed last year and in going through her things I've found an old stamp book that I believe belonged to her father. I know nothing about stamps and am wondering if anyone can point me in the correct direction as to what to do with these and if any may be of any value. I don't even know where to start.
TIA

Hi ShaniGirl, and welcome to this forum. Could you post a picture or two of this album? It would give us a bit of an idea as how to tell you how to proceed from here!

Shani, Please show pics of the oldest stamps first. If you can use a scanner to get better resolution, that could be very helpful. Condition is a huge factor in stamp values, and clear images will help us evaluate condition in addition to stamp types.

Take the album to a local stamp shop and ask them to value it.
