Hello everybody,
I am resident in Italy and I have been collecting stamps, postcards and other for more than 50 years.
I am now still collecting the following: Postcards (old) of my home town (Riva del Garda, now in Italy, was in Austria until 1919), Postal history and stamps of all the foreign powers (Britain, Austria, France etc.) in Constantinople (Levant), Postal history (pre-stamp period) of the Napoleon period , Postal history of my region (Trentino-Sudtirol) in the Austrian period and some stamp thematic/topic (Minerals, Civil Airlines, Flags). And also QEII Machin stamps.
I am geologist, now retired, and have been working for about 40 years in Africa and for 30 years I was resident in Belgium. I have many stamps/covers/postal history etc. from various African countries (especially French-speaking) and also Belgium, Netherlands, France and Italy. I am no longer interested in these sectors and I would be glad to sell or exchange. Thanks and happy holidays Maurizio |

Anglobob Hi, I collect Austrian stamps (and letters/cards) with postmarks of the Trentino (was called also Italian Tirol when Austrian). I attach an example. I have also postmarks from South Tirol (Alto Adige in italian) which is now in Italy but I don't collect them.
bye

I do collect Africa, up to 2020. It's actually my main area of collection. I lived in Mauritania (where I started my stamp collection) and Cameroon.

Hi Maurizio, I live between the Marche and Lombardy. More than a collector, I am an accumulator of classic material from all over the world, including postal history.
I'm interested in varieties, but also machins, tax stamps, cindarellas, forgeries, prephilatelics, I also collect old philatelic catalogues.. many interests in philately, I don't always have the necessary time.
I hope to draw on your knowledge when the opportunity arises.
Ciao
