<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Inspector43, post: 24843734, member: 89213&quot;]This should tell why people are no longer interested in stamp collecting.</p><p><br /></p><p>I started stamp collecting in 1948 at the same time I started coin collecting. I quit when the USPS started issuing wallpaper (too many stamps). I am including here a summary of the issues:</p><p>USPS Stamp Issues. The first two lines represent about 50 years each. The following lines are by decades.</p><p><br /></p><p>1847 to 1899 293</p><p>1900 to 1949 693</p><p>1950 to 1959 152</p><p>1960 to 1969 247</p><p>1970 to 1979 408</p><p>1980 to 1989 643</p><p>1990 to 1999 931</p><p>2000 to 2009 1065</p><p><br /></p><p>My collection consists of about 90% of the US issues. I am also attaching photos of my albums lying flat. The first album is 1847 to 1975. The second is 1976 to 1995. The third is 1996 to 2002, when I quit.</p><p><br /></p><p>The US Mint is trying to catch up with USPS and I quit new coins also.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1591542[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
