Hello,
I am a senior in college working on my world stamp collection. I
inherited my first (very basic) collection from my aunt when I was really young, and it sat on a bookcase for years. Every so often I would get it down and look at it, but I knew nothing about it. It probably wasn't until 5 years ago that I really got into stamp collecting, researching, reading, and learning what was going on. I collect most countries up to around the 50's, and I also like many European countries, as well as countries that were British colonies. I collect the US up to present day.
I have read many Stamp Community forums in the past year or so to learn more about the world of stamp collecting, but have never posted until now. I guess there is no time like the present!
