Just found this thread. Go stallzer!

Beautiful stuff - nice copies of the stamps too.

If I had infinite time, I would definitely collect BC. I really like the stamps. They definitely got it right with regard to quality of the designs and engravings.

I am working my way thru my KGVI MH collection country by country alphabetically. I'm up to Malaya now - just about half way thru the entire Commonwealth. Of course, there are some "holes". I'm missing 34 stamps overall plus the entire colony of India. Malaya looks daunting. Twenty-eight pages!
