Today was a lucky day, I won a Zumstein 1999/2000 2 volume catalogue set as my Christmas present to myself this year. I'm really looking forward to it even though it's in German / French. It should arrive before Christmas. Aside from that, I've taken quite an interest in some of the Bundesfeier Postcards. I love some of the art from that series and started assembling a lovely group already. Pre-Federation postal history is also looking very attractive...
