Interesting video Ted. In a sense you started over again also? I like the Austrian stamps, I remeber the video you did on them. Austria and Switserland have some beautiful issues, and their cancellations are often clear and beautiful.
Thanks, Chris. You are right, I basically rebooted my collection and am doing things a bit differently now. I will have a much narrower but deeper focus on just a few areas.
Good evening, Ted. The video you shared is a great example of excellent stamps. I also have some stamps with American presidents in my collection, but I have never seen such a variety before.
Some stunning collections, that´s for sure ! Over here, stamps from the German colonies are sought after and hard to get for cheap prices. So, if you are able to buy a collection of these stamps for a good price, just go ahead. But be aware that there are also some fake cancellations so that more expensive items need to be certified. Greets from GER, U.
I hear you. Fakes and reprints are an ever-present danger. That’s why I only have a few German States right now. It can be impossible most times to verify their authenticity from the scans provided in the sales listings.
Thank you very much. On the titles I'm using Eras Medium ITC; for all the small print, I use Candara. Also, I said in the video that the border was a file I happened to find on my computer. That's wrong; that border is one of the border options you can choose in the AlbumEasy program.
Awesome collection Twd. However don't you miss viewing your collection by thumbing through a stock book. Just curious why are you stamps in envelopes. You have very nice stamps thanks foe sharing with us buddy. How are you liking your move over there?
It’s because I stripped all my albums and packed them away like that when we moved from USA to Portugal. I am only just now starting to recreate my albums, as we have not had a permanent home for the past year. Next month we move into an apartment we have purchased and I can then get busy setting up my stamp corner (I won’t have a separate stamp cave) in earnest. We’re loving it here on Madeira Island. Best decision we ever made.
It makes for a fun collecting area, as it is possible to complete it. There are just over 400 issues (singles and sets) and they are all lower face value stamps which makes them affordable. The US stamps from this time period are all available for not much more than face value, and the ZIP block can many times be found priced like a regular block with little to no premium for being a ZIP block.
Hi Ted, would you have any recommendations on sleaves/ plastic pages for Davo albums. Purchasing these from Palo is quite expensive. Really enjoy seeing your collecting interests. Thank you, Bill
I’m sorry, I don’t. I’m not fully satisfied with the ones I have. You can in the video how these are not crystal clear. They are too thick and heavy also. I had some thinner crystal clear sheets in the States, but I have not been able to find any here yet.
Good video. I always like your presentation. But, this time, the constant wild camera movements made me sea sick. As always, thank you for your time and effort in sharing your knowledge and your stamps with us. It is truly appreciated.
Two videos in one day! The timing of your videos remains an enigma to me. Great video Ted! Happy Stamping!
Thanks again, Dan.
Very beautiful joint line pair collection - some wonderful color and freshness on some of those older stamps.
Thank you, Chris. And thanks, also, for the postcard. Received it today.
Magnificent Ted, just magnificent ! Love your collection. So beautiful. 🎉
Thank you. I will be documenting my progress in creating my album pages and getting my stamps mounted.
Thanks for sharing Ted!
And thanks for watching, Rolf.
Very nice. I don't believe I had ever seen Mr Zip before. I need to find him for my mothers US collection.
Playing matchmaker, eh? Thanks for watching, Doug.
Hi Ted, you have lovely collections!

Thank you. I like this set for the large number of people honored who are not usually depicted in these types of sets.

Love the way you display your collection. Well done! What font do you use in your pages?

Nice collection, Ted. I really like the Austrian stamps, very interesting, and the German stamps as I collect Germany myself.
Beautiful Ted.
Thank you so much.

Gosh Ted! I thought my life was busy. Its becoming a shame for me as well. Just no free time.
I really hope you'll dedicate a separate video to the stamps on the topic "Classical Music". When you lay them out so that each one is visible...
Yes, I plan to.
Ya Ted I also like Mr. Zip, LOL!!!

great collection from America but these from Austria was my favourites have some of these too but have them in order likes that looks proper and fine.
Thank you very much.

I apologize for that. I was unable to find my tripod mount for my phone. I’ve since found it and future videos will be better.
oops!!! I jus reread my comment "Twd " should be Ted, LOL!!! 🙃
No worries. 😄
👋 hi
Nice to see you, CAZ. 😄
