Hello everyone, Im delighted to join your forum. I was a collector in my teens and then drifted away but I have returned to this wonderful hobby in recent years. I am Irish, but based in France. I have an interest in history and this carries into my areas of philatelic interest. I am interested in stamps of the European states, empire states, France, GB, Austria, Russia also I have recently begun collecting USA stamps in earnest.
looking forward to the lively discussion, and learning alot about this wonderful hobby. Mike

to TSF! You have come to the right place. I'm also always interested in how philately allows us a window into historical events.

Welcome i too have returned to stamps after a long hiatus. I also love history and hos it is reflected in the issues and the indivisual stamps. Your range of subjects is a nice one, lots to enjoy. I know US stamps up until around 19970 but very little since other than suing them to mail letters and the new self adhesive ones areally feel much cheaper and less "real" than the older ones.
have fun and welcome in
Chris
