Pushing 330,000 All Different Worldwide Stamps In One Collection .

Yes, my mistake.

"George III of UK? Shoudn't it be be George VI?"

I prefer George III because it's much easier to complete a set of all the stamps issued during his reign.

Yes, for sure!

Will never have the most valuable stamp collection . Will never have the biggest worldwide collection . But there are a few things I am already happy about .

Having the most countries in my collection ,is something that makes sense . Second item that is fun is getting those hard to find low value stamps . Third is the filling the collection with the many complete sets that for years notice they were missing or are found incomplete in 98% of other people's collections .

The way I see it ,the collection will never be finish ,there is always something more to expand it . Never want the journey to end .

floortrader, I love all the stamps your posting - you motivate me to want to take on the challenge of finding hard-to-find complete sets as well.

BOBCAT 126 ----It is a fun project for me, I always enjoyed seeing complete sets and also enjoyed viewing anybody's collection where a full page is completed .
A full page and a complete set both make viewing more enjoyable .

The ability to print my own page is what makes this work . This can work for everybody no matter if your budget allows only $2.00 a week to fill a page or half a page . Then it could be expensive with all those thousand dollar sets that we see at the major stamp auction firms ,guess it is up to each person .

Lovely page floortrader

I am miss a few from the St. Kitts sets that I will be actively looking for when I go to a stamp show this weekend.

Thank you again for sharing these complete sets with us. I always find them inspiring.

DID YOU NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE ? A new way to collect stamps , I received a e-mail about a new way to collect and never gave it any thought from someone who has been watching and viewed my stuff totally different . .

As a young collector I was the same as millions of other stamp collectors , having a huge album with barely any stamps filling the pages . As my collection grew and the pages filled up ,I would buy a bigger album and even go on to buying a huge multi- volume album sets .

This was until I never thought this out ,that my albums had a lot of blank spaces and many empty pages as the collection grew . It always had that empty look no matter how big it got .

Now let me kick you in the head ,with this idea ?

If you only print pages after you buy the stamps to fill that page . Your album ,will always be complete and full ,let me say that again to drive this point into your head .

You now have a completed - a full album from day one and it only gets fatter as you go .

IT'S A WHOLE NEW WAY TO COLLECT .

The print only when needed is the beauty of using Steiner.. I know some have argued that it is cheaper to buy a whole set of a commercial than one by one on expensive paper but you spend on what is needed. Of course, this is more important to the worldwide collector who often only has a few of a given country, If I have less than 20 to 30, they are on Vario pages until I get in the mood.

That is a pretty good tip!
