Are There Any Stamp Collectors In Dubuque, Iowa Or Neighboring Communities At All?

Hello all. I live in Dubuque, Iowa and am wondering if there are any stamp collectors left in my area. I would love to get together with other collectors in my area to trade stamps, talk about stamps, maybe get someone started in the hobby and just general things having to do with stamps. I am a long time collector of 50+ years and have tons of duplicates to trade as well as several stamp used albums to get someone started in the hobby.

Anyone interested? Contact me and we can go from there. Thanks to all!!

Why not use Google and find a local stamp club? Please do not forget, you are no at 50 posts yet and no one can reach you

Hi oldmanriver,
Please note that other members cannot message you through the forum system until you have 50 posts. But since you are really close to that number of posts, if anyone wants to reach out to you, I (as forum Moderator) can act as an intermediary and make it happen.

You may try contacting a few local stamp dealers for info . or post something at the local library .

You could contact Jerry at Stamps and Stuff ,he would be local to you .

Thank you and I appreciate that a lot. There is a stamp club here but from the little bit I've found out, it looks to net be active anymore?? I'd be more than happy and pleased to maybe get one going again here in the area. Would be great to get some of the younger folks interested in stamp collecting. Keep the hobby going. I have tons of stuff that I would love to put to good use getting someone started in the hobby. I teach at one of the local high schools here and it is amazing how little these young people know about geography, historical events, US History and I can keep going and going. I started collecting way back in I think 1972?? I have to say that over the years, I have learned so much from stamp collecting. To me and others like us, it has been not only a very enjoyable hobby but a never ending wealth of information to say the least.
