Greetings all, it's a pleasure to be here. I'm semi-retired and dug out my U.S. stamp album recently for almost the first time since my teens (newest stamps were from 1964!). My stamp knowledge is limited but I hope to get a lot smarter by hanging around here.
For the time being I've arbitrarily decided to stop my collecting at 1970. I'm about 95% complete from 1930 on but my collection gets pretty sparse before that. As I get into some of the more expensive early issues I'm reluctant to buy from
ebay because I'm probably not smart enough to recognize problem stamps. Accordingly, I'm going to get cracking on my first 50 posts so I can participate in the Sales forum and start developing some "stamp buddies" here. Thanks,
Dennis
