Album C

 

Dear Visitor

I may bore you with these little updates, however for us, they are small mile stones / stepping stones towards our end goal, which is creating an online business as well as the cataloguing of an enormous stamp collection.  And for you it is a chronological diary to follow our progress.

Album C, the next chapter in our Collection has been the thickest album so far.  This album has featured Single, Strips & Blocks of stamps and even some Miniature Sheets, in Mint & Pre-Cancelled (for Philatelic purposes, so not Used) condition / formats, all housed in plastic sleeves (thus no hinging).  These Pre-Cancelled formats, were issued by post offices for Philatelists to create collections where they then had mint & used formats of the same stamp, as sometimes the mint carries a higher value, and sometimes the cancelled format has a higher value.

.

Also unlike the previous 2 albums, which focused on 1 country each, this album has had stamps from:

Bophuthatswana

Ciskei

Namibia

South West Africa

Transkei

Venda

These are all Southern African countries, of which only Namibia still exists.

The date range for these stamps are from 1979 – 1990.

As per usual, your thoughts and comments are always welcome.
