Welcome to The Stamp Forum George (GeorgeL),
You'll find that many of the members here share your collecting interests. Looking forward to seeing some of your BNA material, I'm sure that with your time collecting you probably have some gems to share as well as accumulated wisdom. See you on the Forum.

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

Welcome to the forum. Liverpool is my hometown so it is great to have another Bluenoser here. Like others I am looking forward to seeing some of your collection as Will as input on other posts.

Hi GeorgeL to a great Forum. I am originally from Bangor, Maine, your next door neighbor. It was easy getting there from Bangor, go to Bar harbor and take the ferry. Want a new collecting area. Try South America. Jerry B |

Try South America. Jerry B Hi Jerry, I've been to Bar Harbor a couple of times and it is a lovely town. I attempted to start a Peruvian collection years ago after I hiked to Machu Picchu. I may have to revisit that one. One think I like about South America is that the proofs are quite affordable compared to Canadian ones. George L |

Hi GeorgeL
I am jealous. I would love to go to Machu Picchu.
I only collect Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. I started Peru because of a Peruvian friend but my main interest is Colombia because my wife is Colombian and her house is on a stamp. Ecuador since my sister-in-law lives in Quito. To round out Gran Colombia I added Venezuela (had a friend from there also).
If needed, I can probably give you help if you collect Colombia.
In Nova Scotia I used to visit between Lunenburg and Halifax.

Welcome to TSF GeorgeL; enjoy your time here :-) Your introduction sent me looking through my own collection of RPO material on Canada's 2¢ Imperial Penny Postage and noting the gaps, have begun the search for that elusive PEI material. Again, welcome and thanks for the 'unintended' push...
Have fun and happy collecting! |
