Dear Graham, May be there are many digital philatelic KZbin channels nowadays but you are only one Pioneer of this kind of Philately.

[@ExploringStamps]

😊 you are too kind. Thank you for your support!

[@jimgordon6629]

It’s gracious of you to acknowledge and promote the other sites. None I’ve seen is remotely as interesting as yours. You covered a lot in this episode! Well done, as always!

[@ExploringStamps]

Thank you Jim, glad you enjoyed the videos! 😊

[@billmilner9772]

Graham, Canada also issues a hard-bound, dust-jacketed collection every year. The Canadian version includes the mint stamps, with sleeves in the book in the appropriate places. My collection goes back to 1973 (with the early years being soft covers.) And yes, I agree. A cool way to see a year's worth of stamps, and read the story of each - a history/geography/biology/biography book in one go!

[@ExploringStamps]

Wonderful! I did not know this, I'll have to keep an eye out for the Canadian yearbooks. They are indeed a cool way to see and read the story of each issue in the year. Thanks for watching Bill.

[@IllBeStamped]

Hi! Wow Alan really tricked me there! Awesome joke! Also I am a Seychelles collector so thank you for sharing those BIOT stamps from there! The Chagos islands story is really interesting with all the countries involved! Thanks Gram. I hope you and Laura are doing well!

[@genew3452]

Hi Graham. There are other postal administrations that will be in the same situation as BIOT now will be in terms of UPU - for example the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus is not in the UPU, and all of its mail is routed through the Turkish postal service via the port of Mersin. As far as I know most countries are not rejecting mail from Northern Cyprus, except for Greece and the Republic of Cyprus. Northern Cyprus gets a good number of tourists and they seem to not have problems sending postcards home.

[@ExploringStamps]

Fascinating! I did not know of other examples such as the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, thank you Gene!! It makes me wonder if BIOT could do something similar of routing mail through a supporting entity like the Seychelles or Maldives for example... that is IF they actually send mail...Time for me to do more reading 🤓

[@peterconrad2277]

😮 I didn’t know about the Chagos islands, or the Vatican and Equality stamps… off to do some reading. Many thanks for another amazing video!

[@ExploringStamps]

Absolutely, I have some links in the description, but they are also pretty easy to find with a Google search. Thanks for watching Peter 😊

[@jupitterlarsen]

Over the years there have been a few occasions when either a postal clerk or mail carrier would hand me a piece of mail art and make the comment, something to the effect of: "We couldn’t read the handwriting but we figure this had to be for you since it's so weird." And every time they would be right. Got to love it!

According to the wiki, Britain did this for the US for an airbase, in exchange for access to Polaris missiles for submarines. As well, there's just about 200 British folks on Diego, a long with 1000 Americans and 1200 contract laborers, chiefly Filipinos. The Americans are all military folks, they can get their postal service through the military postal system, and most units have their own US zip codes...

[@ExploringStamps]

Absolutely, most of the mail will be processed through the military postal system. There is one BIOT post office on Diego Garcia that uses BIOT stamps, I believe it leverages the logistics of the military postal systems, but likely doesn't do much mailing other than souvenir postcards.

You are lucky, the Australian Yearbook of Stamps 2020 is actually valued at $129.95 Australian dollars, I think they have issued a yearbook every year since 1981…

[@ExploringStamps]

I saw that!! And I see that they are no longer selling the 2020 yearbook. It is interesting that you could have a stamp collection of 40 yearbooks on a shelf 🤔, I would love to page through some of the earlier ones.

[@brucec7034]

@@ExploringStamps they normally issue a special sheetlet that is only issued with the yearbook, the most popular being one of all the Australia Gold medallist’s for that Olympic year, these normally end up being sold separately, good for collectors, the yearbook is normally only sold for a limited time each year…

Although, 2020/2021 were very busy years, and I wasn’t really concentrating on stamps at the time, so I guess I shouldn’t be that surprised. I LOL’d so hard at the ambulance cover trick. HILARIOUS 🤣

[@yrobtsvt]

It's great how stamp collecting takes you deep inside a country's beliefs about itself as well as the international responses. Evidently some civil servants in the UK think the ongoing occupation (and forced depopulation) of Diego Garcia is so fundamental to the UK's national identity that they need to continue issuing stamps despite international condemnation. And they like to put the Queen on those stamps!

[@ExploringStamps]

Exactly, stamp collecting can absolutely take you inside a country's beliefs, and it's interesting to watch those beliefs slowly or radically change in some countries as seen through their stamps. Philately is such an incredible hobby. Thank you for watching 😊

[@siam1883]

Another video well worth watching even for non-stamp collectors. It made me think of the1898 Canadian Christmas stamp and their boast," We hold a vaster empire than has been" and the consequences of such colonization.

It is so interesting when stamps get involved in politics! Thank you for always leaving links for us to learn more and take a deeper dive on different topics or matters you discuss, it is so interesting! I think it is so cool that the UPU weighed in and took a stance on the dispute. The stamps on your cover are so beautiful and colourful. I love tropical and island stamps because they have such vibrant pictures of animals, insects and fish. I have to say, viewer mail is one of my favourite reoccurring segments on the videos, it is great to get to know some of the other viewers through their letters and packages.

[@tedtalksstamps]

The islands are best known through that 1974 Sam Peckinpah movie, "Bring Me the Head of Diego Garcia."

Australia Post ends each year by releasing overpriced, contrived variations of earlier stamps to make a buck out of collectors. But this one seems to have been a genuine mistake for once.

I don't think the Universal Postal Union should get involved in political conflicts. They should concentrate on mail delivery and not decide who is right and who is wrong in something that has nothing to do with their mandate. This is a dangerous path.

[@ExploringStamps]

Totally a valid point, should a postal entity take a political stance, or just focus on the delivery of messages globally? It would mean that the UPU needs to take a political stance in EVERY single dispute (to be fair), which as you said could be a dangerous path!

[@BitchspotBlog]

My issue is really that KZbin content seems aimed only at the beginning philatelist and for anyone who has been doing this for a while, there really isn't much of interest. There's nothing wrong with that, of course, but once people start to take their stamp collecting seriously, they're going to move beyond watching kiloware on the table. Now there are a few channels that do that, such as RMPL Denver that provide a really nice, long-form, informative description of stamp topics even though, admittedly, their production values aren't always the best. I'd really like to see content that appeals to all levels of collectors, not just "I just got into this and I don't know how to use tongs yet", which seems far too prevalent on KZbin.

For a fun read that includes fantasy stamps I recommend reading the fantasy/sci-fi book, “Going Postal,” by Terry Pratchett

[@jamesshattell1425]

You can video inside a US Post Office. Refer to Poster 7 which should be posted in the lobby of your post office. The poster lists the rules and regulations for conduct on post office property. To your concern of videoing: "Photographs for News, Advertising, or Commercial Purposes Photographs for news purposes may be taken in entrances, lobbies, foyers, corridors, or auditoriums when used for public meetings except where prohibited by official signs or Security Force personnel or other authorized personnel or a federal court order or rule. Other photographs may be taken only with the permission of the local Postmaster or installation head." I would talk with the Postmaster or the Supervisor first so your video doesn't turn into a 1st Amendment Audit video. (Google 1st Amendment US Post Office.)

Wouldn't fantasy stamps be a subset of Cinderella Stamps?

[@ExploringStamps]

They absolutely would be. Fantasy stamps are Cinderellas!

[@LouisGedo]

@@ExploringStamps Hi Graham.....the reason why I wasn't sure is because it seemed as if you were distinguishing fantasy stamps as being stamps which indicate a specific location. Many Cinderellas, as you know, don't picture or point to a location but rather highlight a person or a thing. I've recently started seeking out genuine official stamps and Cinderella stamps which depict or focus on the RMS Lusitania which, as you may know, was not only an incredibly impressive luxury liner but also its sinking is one of the most fascinating, mysterious, and world changing events in modern history (IMO). Mysterious, because there's still real doubt by rational people who've scrutinized everything about the event, as to whether or not it sank due to a large amount munitions that were placed on board......which would be very unethical and illegal to do so. World changing because in large part, this was the impetus for the US to join the allied forces in WWI......and without the consequences of WWI, there arguably wouldn't have been a sufficient reason for a WWII. So the RMS Lusitania is one of those lesser known events that helped change the course of human history. I have a fascination with train, ship, and air vehicle philately......and an acute fixation on stamps depicting the RMS Lusitania. Anyway, your content is ALWAYS enriching and educational.
