Thanks For Including Me.

Howdy! I used to be a stamp collector when I was younger but an getting back into it because my father in law gave me his grandfather's collection. So doing a lot of research and loving all the history and art and details that go into stamp collecting. Looking forward to learning a lot from you all.
I have an interest in German stamps as there are many in the collection I got from my FIL. There is one stamp I have not been able to find anywhere online.

Hello and welcome!

If you enjoy research, this is a great place for that. Naturally, you can just ask questions and the members will be happy to help. If you care to post of image of that unidentified stamp, maybe someone (or two) can figure out what it is.

Welcome!

Welcome!!

Welcome aboard! It's almost guaranteed that someone here will recognize your German stamp (but it won't be me). Enjoy the return to your old/new hobby.

FrancesStone,

Collecting for the enjoyment of collecting, whatever that might be, is the name of the game. Don't hesitate to ask questions especially if you need basic information and especially more advanced sources of information for any possible topic. You should be able to find folks on this board a little further along on their collecting journey glad to share experiences. Russ

Welcome to the forum.

Thank you everyone! Yes, JLLebbert I love the research!

I hesitate to join groups like this because I know I can't really contribute too much. I don't' know enough about stamps so I hope I don't take too much from the group. Thanks in advance for the help I'm sure you'll all give me.

Welcome to the group FrancesStone. One way to contribute is by asking questions. Fire away. We all learn from this type of contribution.

I'm new to collecting but everyone here is really nice and helpful. It just takes a little time to figure out how the forum works but it's a great place to learn!
