Hi Jeff. I was very lucky finding this stockbook indeed.

Wow! Great collection! Good deal, too. The stock book, alone is probably worth $20. If I could find a stock book like that of a country I didn't have much of, I'd be thrilled. Thanks for another lovely video:) I just had my appendix removed, so gardening is not possible right now...but working on stamps is the best way I can think of to get my mind off the pain. It's so therapeutic for me. I look forward to new videos from you, always:)

Hi Martha. How are you doing now? It has been a while since you had your appendix removed. Hope you were able to do a bit of garden work, although the season will almost be to an end I guess.

Hi Chris. This just came up on my feed. Haven't seen your videos before so I watched from Indiana and subscribed. I too find precancels interesting as well as stamps with town cancels.

Hi Dennis. They are really interesting. I have really looked up so many towns and checked where they are. It is like a journey. And maybe not all precancels are interesting, since they can be monotonous, but checking where the places are is so fun. I also think US stamps are pretty unique in that, am I right?

@@dennisferguson9129 So I assume you collect precancels? I find them relatively hard to come by over here (The Netherlands). The ones I got I ordered through eBay.

@@chrislovesstamps I collect all stamps but I do find precancels interesting. There are so many different towns as well as dated...inverted ... They are no doubt more common in US but they are quite prevalent on eBay. We have stamp shows here and sometimes dealers have them.

Beautiful collection of US stamps! I think it is worth much more than 28 Euro if you also think how much you already got and is going to get out of it. Great buy! I just loved that grey wolf stamp, and naturally I also found all the bird stamps to be lovely. It is interesting how the stamps really highlight America and all that are important to it. I think it is a perfect thing finding something that you are really drawn to - like you being drawn to precancels. Can you imagen how much you are going to enjoy such a collection and putting it together. Thank you for showing us this excellent stock book and collection, Chris. Already looking forward to your next video - I enjoy the style of your videos so much!

Hi Charnie. Ofcourse you liked the animals (wildlife) stamps most ;-) Yep, I like US stamps a lot. But I think after approx. 2000 I think I do not like them as much. Snd yes, I fell in love with pre-cancels :-)

3:38 if MW refers to a company the most likely one would be Montgomery Ward, one of the largest mail-order companies at that time. 13:15 The antique cars stamps were issued in booklet format; the Duesenberg stamp gives a clue as it is imperforate on 3 sides. Most, if not all, U.S. commemorative-sized stamps with 2 or 3 imperforate sides would be booklet issues.

Hi Roger. All those companies having their own cancellation is very intrigueing.

What a beautifully arranged stock book of US! I have a bunch of stock books and love to organize stamps similarly by size for countries with consistent sizes. I also love precancels - they were a lot more common in mixes and pick bins in the 1990s but are getting fairly rare now so that was a very nice group. Love the Washington State and Seattle Space Needle stamps :) The transportation and famous Americans of the 1990s stamps don't have a glossy gum - it is very dull matte so they are probably unused if the paper is perfectly smooth. 28 Euros was a great deal - the unused US stamps were worth more than that for postage lol. Thanks for sharing your latest find Chris!

could you tell us more about the pre cancels.........what about inverted shifts broken letters etc?

@chrislovesstamps 11 күн бұрын

Honestly. I don't know much about peecancels....yet. there is an online club that has free documentation.

That’s a tremendous collection. Many US collectors never get that level of completeness. Great buy at $100. Check out that $2 Franklin stamp on the first page. A gem. That odd stamp like thing toward the end is a postage meter stamp. Businesses would print out that label with the postage they needed without using stamps. The machine would affix them too.

@chrislovesstamps 13 күн бұрын

I paid 10 dollars Ken, not 100 :-) Interesting info about the machine. Would they still exist in museums?

Great buy. You may want to look at the transportation coils. Some of them will have a plate number on the bottom which will enhance their value if you ever decide to sell. Thank you for another great video

Hi Jeffrey. Ow, those numbers that appear every 5 or 10 stamps? I think Germany does them on the back of the stamps. Thanks for watching!

So Chris jij hebt er weer wat moois bij. Wat een enorme variateit aan zegels hebben de Amerikaanse zegels. Dat maakt het ook wel weer lastig, aangezien je wel even bezig bent om de collectie bezig bent. Je idee van de opdruk met staat/stad is wel erg gaaf. Met een mooi kaartje erbij, dan lijkt het nog enigzins behapbaar en zal er prachtig uit gaan zien. Dank weer voor de leuke video.

@chrislovesstamps 13 күн бұрын

Hoi Camiel. Zeer gevarieerd land. En de pre-cancels zijn echt leuk. Ik denk al die steden in die staten opzoeken en ontdekken is erg leuk.
