I sell on Hip stamps to United States and use these stamps well U.S. higher amount stamps. I was talked into buying these new Christmas stamps to send all my sales with. Do you like them? Remember keep your shipping cheap/ cute to make a sale.

My question is why was this revenue stamp applied to the back of this cover?  1948 Lebanon  C 122 and C? payed Air mail to Chicago  from Michel Andros in Beirut  A car part dealer ship. They canceled a precancel as well. I wonder if it was used to help pay the airmail amount. But A revenue would be an ill legally used. I see someone listed it as postal tax. That would be new to me? Perhaps a War Tax type charge.

Finding the needle in the hay stack comes as a normal thing for me collecting. Like this beautiful  1986 Scott 2048 removed from souvenir sheet and used. They were sold used in the souvenir sheets, But with a flower pre cancel First day September 23, 1986. This one was removed and used as normal postage. It is a scarce use. Its too bad it was removed from cover. used 1987,May 4th. In China. Enjoy  this large Stamp. What makes this a scarce usages is the fact its used in regular mail even though its not the first day its still scarce.

The autumn 2025 Stamps and Their Stories series presented for the Seniors Association of Kingston completed its run on Monday. The participants really enjoyed hearing from our group of talented speakers. They learned, they laughed, and some may return for the spring series.

A big thank you to our members who devoted time and expertise to develop their talks, used their initiative to find the little room hidden away in the centre of the church, and demonstrated a love of stamps while telling some great stories. We were a darned fine bunch of philatelists! 

In order from week 1, our guest speakers were: Jim Gould, Bob Gardner, Paul Fleet, Roy Lingen, Debbie Lingen, Richard Weigand, Hugh MacDonald, Ted Luhtala, and Val Mayers. Our week 9 panellists Jim Gould, Al Herrington, and Val Mayers helped me end the series with storytelling and a show and tell around the big library table. 

Thank you all for making my job so easy and representing the Kingston Stamp Club so well!

I dont know much about these and dont even know were I got them from But  more information please Thank you

Val Mayers spoke to the group about Varieties this week. She brought lots of examples of varieties, as well as the tools she uses. She passed around stamps and UV lights and participants were actively searching for missing colours and irregular perforations. Val’s enthusiasm for the topic was contagious. At one point someone called out « Doughnuts! Please show us doughnuts! » 

Val also provided a brief overview of the club’s youth program. Guest speakers like Val certainly do a great job promoting the club, making it sound like a fun place to spend a few hours with friendly people.

There is just one week left in the program. For the first time, we are having a panel of five members sharing the story of their collecting journey.
