OK I finally got these soaked and pressed and am starting the mammoth task of "flyspecking" them for varieties. I have found a few #219 Die II's amongst these and am very happy about it because I didn't have an example before. The 1894-5 Bureaus are going to be a challenge for me just due to all the color varieties and watermark variations. I think the 1890's small banknotes was easier to assemble and more fun for me. Most of the stamps that I have done so far have been all wmk'd 191 (double-line watermark) but I'm holding out hope that at least 1 will be un-wmk'd...I need sound copies of #248-#252. I do have a few but need better examples. OK enough blabbering from me...your turn!
Man they look puuurty don't they? I just stuck them in my binder just like that! haha No hurry I'll get to them sooner or later! Thanks again and I just can't believe the generosity of my friends! I so wish I had stuff to reciprocate as I usually only buy one stamp at a time so not mant duplicates. The ones I do have were either given to me by forum members or are so common that no one wan'ts them so I have a quite the quandary at the moment..I don't want to be the guy that just takes as I am usually the one that gives about everything away! I'll come up with something don't you worry none about it! Thank you again everybody for just being so darned kind. I really need this environment as my health isn't that good anymore and depression is starting to become a close friend...I look forward to checking this forum every day (and night).
Jay, it makes me happy, that you are happy. Dont let Mr Depression get to you, you have all of us. We are here to support you.
I need it too! Many "Thank You's" to everyone! I just received a bottle of Jack Daniels "Tennessee Honey". Never had it - never will...lol
As we say in my neck off the woods " keep you pecker up" LOL. I know what your going through i've been to hell and back these past 7 months and survived. If you wanna talk just pm me
Ha ha...I been watching the board for 2 days but it wouldn't let me log in on my phone for some reason? Oh well..Thank you for all the well wishes. I had a lot of fun sorting all that stuff and it really cheered me up. I'm in realy good spirits today so far but it's early yet...haha... You guys are great!
what do you mean? What sort of container are you referring too? I have then organized in a Vario stock sheet. Is that what you was asking about?
