Hi everyone,
I'm delighted to join this forum. I've been collecting since I was 10, on and off as most people, finding time when life allows! My wife (she's a collector too, Christmas and embroidery stamps) and I retired last year so I've had the opportunity to delve a little more into my collection which comprises pre-1950 Austria and US, and a few thematics: cycling, maps, space and Zeppelins.
I look forward to interacting with the members on here!
Philippa

Welcome to TSF, philippa.... it's great to have you with us! I visited Dublin last year (April-May timeframe) while I was living and working in the UK, and I enjoyed it very much. I am hoping to get back there again one day. Anyway, welcome again and enjoy your time with us. Best wishes, -Chris  Back in California after 5 years in Europe |
