from a newbie - do I have something worth investigating? by
A R Pickett
I recently discovered a large old fashioned storage box, filled with stamps
and covers accumulated by my aunt. Most of the postmarks are from the
1940's and 1950's. The volume of cancelled stamps is considerable, and
while there might be something of value in there, I'm confident the effort...

Having recently gotten back to stamps, I just purchased the above mentioned
Scott catalog.

My question is how closely do the prices listed reflect actual market values?
Thanks!

celebrate the 25th anniversary of the founding of the Mongolian Peoples
Republic. The picture shows the university of Ulan-Bator. You can find this

New subject; was: Is the Peru stamp legit by
A.E. Gelat
This is an example of what happens to a stamp if the postal
authority handling it deems it unacceptable. In 1995, the Palestinian
Authority (PA) issued a set of three stamps showing stamps of Palestine
issued during the British Mandate. The stamps (SG PA 23, 24 and 25), ),
showed Rachel's Tomb, a...

Self-adhesive cuts by
A.E. Gelat
What is the proper name for the sinusoidal cuts used on the self-adhesives?
The spacing of the "waves" can be measured on a standard perforation gauge,
but I have not seen any mention of gauge in cataloguing the stamps. Do they
vary, and has there been any changes in the gauge?

Central Australia by
A.E. Gelat
I know this not philatelic, or maybe it could be. Many years ago, I was
looking at a very old atlas, and saw on a map of Australia "Central
Australia, Territory". It occupied the southern half of the present
Northern territory. Since it no longer appears on current maps, I assume it
was merged...
