Hello all,
I am a 50 year old Dutchy in Perth Western Australia. I returned to collecting stamps recently and am interested in stamps that look and feel old, say pre-1900 to 1950s (depending a bit on the country). Not a collector of "sticker" stamps or "tourist" stamps or stamps dumped on the market by certain countries to make money from "stamp-collectors around the world" (often used in the 80's stamp subscription sets). I have a decent collection of the Netherlands (Pre-Euro), Australia (pre-decimal to 1984) and Great Britain (pre-2000) and I try to keep my collection up to date on Colnect (at least what I have sorted and put back in books). I try to complete these collections of course, but very much interested in other countries with old great looking stamps (Ceylon has some great ones too).
I like the photogravure and recess kinda stamps or the lithography and recess stamps (the ones you can feel the lines).
I have a decent amount of doubles from the countries that I already sorted so can easily grab a 100 for someone from these countries that would please you.
Heaps of Australian stamps from the more recent years. As I am still organising and re-organising my collection and still need to sort through several cookie tins of world stamps, I cannot yet guarantee a tailored trade with someone, but will do my best to match as good as possible the requested stamps that someone likes.
Regards
Peter
