Hi Rodney
The 6 centavo on page 10 is in pretty bad shape. I assume it is there waiting for a decent copy.

Hi Rodney The 6 centavo on page 10 is in pretty bad shape. I assume it is there waiting for a decent copy. Jerry B The ripped and torn, the tired and weary, all welcome at my place Jerry. I am a right strange fellow, ripped stamps have never bothered me, I just let it be. Of course I'll swap it, if another fellow comes along, otherwise it shall remain, let the next caretaker worry about that. Wishing you a thick doona for your cold nights. It's on our news every evening.

Hi Rodney
I looked up doona. New one for the Oz dictionary. I have a ruana from Colombia that must be 1/4 in thick wool (llama, alpaca or vicuña not sure which). Nice and warm. Middle and upper class in Colombia will use them at home or on the ranch but not in public.

I was fortunate to obtain an old specialist catalog from Argentina, Kneitschel 1951. Unfortunately I had already created and mounted my collection on my own custom made pages, but I wish I hadn't. Much more details available in that old cataloog. Nothing beats the old specilaized catalogs. I've had a thread going in another forum, asking for illustrations of the 3 different types of the 10C brown, 1890, Sc #78, Mi#70. The types are not listed in either catalog, but mentioned in a foot-note in Michel. None on that other forum were able to provide the images I was looking for. However that old catalog I just got made it all so clear: So, I had to update my custom page accordingly Thank you very much Nelson @falshung

If your looking to buy that old hard to find catalog;

Some of the stamps I received from Jeffrey Needleman were Argentine stamps exerting their influence over Las Malvinas, otherwise known as The Falkland Islands. A few covers, some single stamps and a block of 10 overprints on a nondescript stamp. A little while ago, I searched around to see if any of them were worth anything at stamp world.com. Wow - $17 CDN for a single stamp! And here I have 10 of them! Not too bad. It is now $18 for said stamp... But alas... here is what Postbeeld is selling it for... My dreams of a far-flung adventure fizzled out to a walk around the park!

If it is the stamp issued on phosphor. paper (Michel 1556y/Scott 1338),issued April 22nd,1982,it is the cheap version. If it is the stamp issued on normal paper (Michel 1556x/Scott not listed in my "ancient" cat.),issued in June 1982, it is listed with about 30 times the value of the phosphor. version.

Just came across this again on my desk. Trying to tidy up a bit !! This Argentina Plate Proof, purchased at City Stamp Montreal some years ago, is the design of SG#148. 12c Blue. If someone can give me a Scott number I would be grateful. I am guessing that the dealer, who sell online many high-end items, sold these as genuine. I have seen CSM mentioned both here and elsewhere so I assume reputable. So here it will sit, in it's rightful place....Argentina !!

Interesting that you should mention City Stamp Montreal, because I was just there at their offices earlier this week. CSM is indeed a reputable dealer, in my opinion, and I have purchased from them on several occasions. I like Robert Cooperman, the owner, very much. He always treats me well, and he is happy to answer questions and offer his opinion on things when asked. That said, I have no idea whether the price shown on the tag is speculative or realistic. Irrespective of the price, I still think it is a cool item! It appears to me that the 12c Deep Blue stamp would be Argentina, Sc99.

There appears to be very little interest in Argentina stamps ,and S America in general . Historic buildings of Argentina, Sc 1159-1179 ,issued from 1977 to 1981.Numerous shades and some stamps issued on both ordinary and fluorescent paper.

I agree - nice to see a modern set. The early Argentina can get repetitive. Hey Bob, anglobob , what type of paper are you using? It looks like it has some linen texture to it.
PS - Edited to add, there's nothing wrong with repetition! What I really meant was that I only tend to get Argentina stamps from bulk lots, and so it's the same, common, San Martin stamps in all their forms. They're nice in their own way, but I don't have a sense of what else is possible. 💖

madbaker - Mark- classic Argentina stamps look a bit "ugly" and like you said, repetitive (my opinion) Anyone who wants my 235 for their collection can send me by PM their offer René

rod222 It appears that the 1967 "Bird" stamp includes a citrus orange "narangero." A new one to look for. Thanks, even though you didn't know you helped me.

What I collect: I collect world wide up to 1965 with several specialty albums added due to volume of material I have acquired. At this point I am focused on Canada and British America. I am always on the lookout for stamps and covers with postmarks from communities in Queens County, Nova Scotia. I do list various goods including stamps occasionally on eBay as hdm50

I was so happy to see the post by anglobob on this thread as like many I have worried about how you were doing with the emergency in Ecuador. Upon looking back in the thread I see that rod222 has devoted a lot of time to this country. I too have a large collection mounted in my Scott International that goes up to 1965. Like almost every country in the world album my page one is a chaotic mess. I do not see myself ever doing anything about that as I have my few dozen countries I focus on. Here is page one so you can see what I mean.

I have removed renden's last post in this thread as it was totally uncalled for and not in keeping with the decorum expected of a member of this Forum.
