| I have mentioned this site before; but i am still iimpressed by how well put together it is. Home page: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]I would like to take you through a virtual tour: Pick a year, say 1948 and it will show all the issues for that year: [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]If you are interested one particular issue , select it and : [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]If you are interested on one particular stamp, select it and: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The information given is pretty good including the numbers for many catalogues: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]If you cannot guess the meaning of the Italian word, Google will provide a usable translation: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The site also provides a number of FREE album pages on A4 layouts: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]Here is an example of one of the coloured pages: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]The site has also many interesting links. And no, I don't get paid for this free add...I wish other sites would be near as good...makes you want to collect Italian? |

| Also for me ibolli.it is the best italian stamps site and I inspired it in creating my site with the objective of making a better site. |

| Is the site just in Italian, or is there a way to see it in english? I see on the home page, that there are some US stamps. Any help would be appreciated. |

| There are ways to get that done and such translation services can be applied by the owner of the site, but snippets can be copy/pasted by the user into a number of free services. I used [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] as it is free, auto-detects the language, provides a decent interpretation of the content, and it is very simple to use. There are many others that I have tried but this is my go-to service. |

| Thanks for the help Stampdays, just thought that they might have a english button on the site. I will give the above a try. |
