| Hello everyone, I've been following the forums for some time, but decided it was time for me to sign up & introduce myself. My name's Keijo. And I'm a 36 year stamp-a-holic Seriously speaking, I've been a stamp collector most of my life. I started off by collecting worldwide, then I specialized to stamps of Finland for some time, before converting back to collecting the whole world (from 1840 to present). Right now I'm up to about 72K face different stamps around the world. Here's a small teaser pic of the collection:  I also write a stamp blog (about the pleasures and sorrows of worldwide collecting) at http://www.stampcollectingblog.com Looking forward to some nice discussions, -keijo- |

| Greetings Mr. -keijo- . Tidy looking collection. I wish mine looked as neat. . Also, great blog. (Just what I need, another blog site to eat up my precious time. Now I need to go through several hundred “Alti Valore”s for comparisions.) . Welcome to a very friendly stamp discussion board. . Respectfully,
Gordon Lee |
