Not exactly one of the places people know. From 1926 to 1933 it issued stamps. On the Mongolian Siberian border.

Yesterdays triangle stamps made me grab these tonight. While these are not rare, by the same token, they are not common either.

With an overprint, the value shoots up like a hundred dollars.

HMMM. Why the heck do I suddenly want the two overprints?

Must be a case of the stamp fever.

I need more money then I got, for what I want.

I still need covers from Thailand, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, heck, the whole region. I need one from New Zealand too. That would be awesome.

OK, this partial set of 3 stamps has a bit of interest for a few collectors.

One, it's shape, for those freaks out there who only collect triangle stamps.

Two, it's an airmail, for the airdales collecting just airmail stamps, this set dates 1932.

What else? HMM.. I'm stretching it now, but if your a topical collector of battles, the first two depict the Battle of Shauyai. Like I said, I'm stretching it now.

Oh yes, my last name is given me from my great grandfather who immigrated from there.

I do have this set of 3 available to the first person wanting it(if you can mail me a letter from one of the countries I need for my collection). Email me first before sending me a letter though, to insure I don't promise it to more then one person.

Now you can see how I deduced what yesterdays scans were. Not that I'm 100% sure. I stand to be possibly corrected.

I haven't heard much noise lately. Am I tooting my horn?

Feed Tax

Not sure about this, I got no clue(OK I got one perhaps) I think these are feed tax stamps. Real real REAL far in the back of the book. You can enlarge these by clicking on the images.

Caribbean tour? I'm amazed at the vast amounts of reasons to make a special cover.

I haven't received any covers in my world quest for awhile, actually quite awhile. Somehow I need to get more people to see my bloc. Any ideas other then harassing people? A contest? Giveaways? I hate to try giveaways, my luck the response would be overwhelming and I'd go broke or disappoint some people and I don't want to do either.

My local stamp club is having it's annual stamp show/bourse the first Saturday of October. I'm trying to get the day off to go. I work 2nd shift all week and can't go to meetings and I work 1st shift on Saturdays and can't do anything on Saturdays.

Work sucks.
