For the seasoned collector, there would be varieties, booklet singles, coils, pairs, commems, etc., etc. - but for the beginner, they may seem a bit boring? I dunno...


It may be, but if you offer the choice, then you are not
obligated. Offer it as a WW"Lucky dip" selection perhaps.


Hmmm... I could always "spice it up" with a few better items. Kind
of like the Harris grab bags we used to be able to by at Woolworth's
and 5 & dime stores. Not saying that those bags had any real good
stuff, but back then, anything was good!

I recently took a huge box of junk at auction, just to
get a few Perfins I was missing.
A pillow case of "on piece " junk surrendered
up 3 cinderellas (TB seals) franked on piece,
I was tickled pink.


I hear that. Honing up on my Canada stuff. :^) It is a lot of work,
but it is also serving to help me literally focus (eyesight) on the
task at hand. I have to keep shifting and focusing.

Anyway, thanx for the support.
