Hey all,
I am a Canadian who started collecting as a youngster, then let it slide for about forty years.Came back to the hobby a decade ago, at age 56. Built a collection around the USSR's involvement in the Great Patriotic War (WWII to us), then expanded to collect western Europe, Japan, Mexico, and Canada. I find the Internet has made it so much easier to understand what the stamps themselves are all about, and this has added immeasurably to my enjoyment of my collection. I start with Steiner pages, and then design my own pages as my interest and research dictate.
I came to this forum when researching the Marchand series of Baudouin, king of the Belgians.
Looking forward to meeting many of you - online, anyway.
Thanks for having me!
MichaelPat
