I did some casting about for additional stamp sources. I joined two more auction houses that specialise in collectibles. On the day I joined Status International they were holding a stamp auction that I was not prepared for however at the end a number of items were passed in, so I bought a group of old albums. It has taken four weeks for the parcel to be delivered from Sydney. The box was heavy at around 15Kg and included 11 large albums. That's a lot of stamps, just over 12,000 actually. So I bought them for 2c each. Some people go about it differently like the guy who put every stamp he ever found in the album including many duplicates. Not only that but you can't see them properly because they are all overlapping.

They used 110 stamps to post this box |
|
90 of the same stamp on one page |
|
This person used biros to rule red and blue boxes |
|
This one crammed 10 copies of each overlapped. |
I will dismantle all these but preserve how they did it in my stamp database.
You're so cute, Neil
