Good for you and all others that the rest of this thread is about collecting stamps.

Absolutely!

When we were in Paris a couple of months ago, we must have passed half a dozen shops devoted to stamp collectors/collecting. I guess it’s still quite a thing there.

When I was a kid in the '50s-'60s, I’d order those bags of stamps advertised on the back of comic books and stick 'em in my stamp book. (I still remember: you mailed your order to Littleton, NH.)

I also collected S&H Green Stamps and them traded in for some toys or trinkets. Green Stamps should not be confused with Berkshire’s old Blue Chip Stamps business–the mention of which steers my post to being somewhat “on topic” here. Huzzah!
