I have added a nice selection of many stamps to my store. I fondly remember going to stamp shows as a child, enjoying going through counter books where I could pick out the 'ideal' stamp for me. The days where local stamp shows would allow this experience are few and far between. I have attempted to re-create this by listing selected stock which you can pick from. I AM AN APS DEALER MEMBER and I will be my pleasure to make the buying experience as easy as possible. Feel free to contact me at if you have any questions or if there are item(s) that you are looking for. LOT GUAM COVER 6
