I find one every now and then. Fun things to find.
The USPS started printing and selling what I call wallpaper several years ago. A new stamp for everything possible. And, with the quarter and...
This is a good topic. I am a father to 6, a grandfather to 13 and a great grandfather to 17. With 70 years worth of very active coin and stamp...
Yes. I have so many that I have just 'put away' for 70 years and since retirement I am going through them. Fun and some remind me of how I...

Congratulations Joy. Grandkids are great. Spoil them and send them home. We have 13 grandkids and 17 great grandkids. I keep an excel spreadsheet...
Looks more like 1961. We are reading it upside down.
No, that would be great.
Most people, including my family, would only take about 12 pictures a year. A roll of film was good for 12. Then you had to have them developed...
