Useful US stamp Identification

If anyone is having problems or needs an excellent way to id early US stamps, here is a website that I use http://www.theswedishtiger.com/usstamps/ Hopefully this is useful to someone. Thanks

 

I use this all the time. Great help for anyone that needs to compare for ID purposes. Bought many an item from him as well. ~Jay

 

Just wanted to bump this thread back up, for anyone who is looking for a good site to identify US stamps.

 

A great item (Link) for the Information Thread, lots to learn for those interested.

 

I have stuck it down so it will always stay at the top, as this is a very helpful site

Thanks Steve!!!!!!

 

That someone is me. LOL. This is very useful for a newbie in collecting stamps. I'll take note of this as it might come in handy when I'm having concerns to ID early US stamps.

 

and you can always scan the stamp, up to 1mb and put on here we have a lot of US collectors here with a mass of knowledge, i am more the GB expert if you need any help with them

 

you maybe should check out Delcampe or eBay for great deals but make darn sure you read the descriptions and shipping costs especialy on Delcampe. Here is a quick link-​

Thank you. But can I locate classic Hawaiian stamps here?

 

Put up a scan I know a little about them although I don't own any yet I may be able to either tell you or point you in the right direction.

 

Thanks so much for the link to:

I especially like the black background as it makes the stamps a lot clearer to see. It is a very professional site.

 

Just started using it in conjunction with Gibbons, yes it helps, thanks

 

I can't get the site... I get a Forbidden 403 error

I'm sure it's great, so thanks for sharing!

 

Is that Peter I see on the heading ?

 

That worked, thanks Hochstrasse
