I have been busy with the library and my stamp collection being on display there. Last week I did a program about stamp collecting to the adults. This week I will do a program about stamp collecting to the kids. After the kids program this week I will be able to bring my stamp collection home. I have also been real busy with life in general. Hopefully after next month I will be able to get back to my stamps a bit. I have stamps to put in my albums, stamps to do a giveaway and if I can remember where I put them stamps to sell. Happy stamping everyone, Carabop

Not bad days for stamping. Last Sunday, I went to the stamps market and picked a lot of good Iceland used stamps and a Swedish cinderella (already shown here), I got a generous gift od Swiss stamps from a friend here, that are already placed on the album. Yesterday, I went to the thrift shop for the first time since mid July, as it had been closed for the summer season until this week. There, I found "awaiting for me" a donation of two stamp stock books. One, was an old Soviet book, full of cto stamps of that country of late XX century. Not worth too much, but nevertheless nice. Somebody (a tourist, I guess!) will buy it. The other was a locally produced stock book, full of cuttlings of postmarks and slogan postmarks, without the stamps, plus a few commemorative covers and an interesting card (for some reasons) that I kept for myself and will show here later. I'm not yet sure on what to do with the cutllings, that don't have any commercial value at all. Perhaps, I'll try to sell them with the stock book, which is prety good. We'll see...
