What is the KSC Lounge - Hugh - 16-10-2025
Here's where you can sit back and take a break from stamping. In the Lounge you can talk about things that don't always fit in the rest of the forum.
For example, start a new thread, or add to one, on topics such as:
- A quick review of a stamp show you attended recently
- A book or article review
- What are you listening to tonight as you work on your stamps
- Giving thanks to another club member
- Sharing personal news that you want to share ... I just retired, We're celebrating our wedding anniversary, and so on.
- A cool new catalogue or monograph that you've added to your philatelic library
- Just about anything you'd like to share, in good taste, with other members. The kinds of things you might share at your table group at a club meeting

Its Stamp Month! With the up coming Show there should be some new entries posted on here. Id like to learn more about other countries I've concentrated mostly on United States. I've been out of the loop for health reason for some time. Maybe some day the club will email me with up coming events. In a few months the APS will send back a new type found of Scott 231. Ill keep you posted. In the mean time I have some lots coming from Auction houses in the U.S. to keep me busy. The APS sends me Tickets and emails every month for up coming U.S. shows. Maybe I will be able to go next year Expo link here. >.Summary - Boston 2026 World Expo Im looking for another member to share on the trip to the Expo next year let me know if your interested.
I acquired this stamp below today at auction OG/NH Jumbo margins. I know a new member that is collecting them so I bought for him as a gift.

Hi Richard ... I definitely wish you success. I have nothing but respect for people who are into plating stamps.
It's not my thing ... I don't have the patience for it. So, I will enjoying hearing about your project. Good luck!
Cheers, Hugh
PS - That's a nice stamp you plan to gift your friend. Very generous of you.
