G'day Dag,
thanks for that link, I look forward to reading it off line.

The Great Man collected only pre 1900 stamps.
his interests we
1. Early Sicily
2. 18th and 19th century pre stamp covers from the Republic of Venice.
3. Postmarks of Bavaria and Russian Local Mail "ZEMSTVO"

May there always be a Simon Wiesenthal for the bullies
and cowards of the world.

I heard of his passing on NPR. It fills me with deep, mixed, emotions.
He was a man of extraordinary talents and faithe. And loved and
appreciated by millions.
