this will be fun! i like foreign stamps and have a bunch from all over the world. i'm looking forward to this series.
love the lucille ball stamp.
Interesting -- My favorite is the stamp commemorating Audrey Hepburn; she was truly beautiful -- such a lady.
BTW, I enjoy the snapshots on your sidebar -- especially of Ellen Degeneres and Beverly Leslie.
So very sorry!!! I got his name confused with a character he played on Will & Grace -- I meant to say "Leslie Jordan" :(

what an awesome idea for a mini-series! I love stamps too, but never save any.
What a great idea! I've never been into stamps but I appreciate how someone could be. Very neat.
Wonderful idea Rick....I have always loved stamps but never actually "collected" them....I do save any stamps I get from outside of The Untited States, and send them to a friend who DOES Collect.
I LOVE ALL these Stamps of The Hollywood Stars....plus, I save left-over stamps, if they are interesting, from waaay back....!
Goodness, you have been blogging up a storm this week. Is it because you're at home and not travelling for once?
I used to have a tendency to philately, but all my stamps are either lost or stored away somewhere I think.
Even though Audrey is my fave actress of the lot, Marilyn Monroe of course makes the most striking stamp.
My 102 yr old aunt gave me her stamp collection and I added a few. My high school drama teacher collected post stamp POSTERS and I was able to flirt into getting him a few during my job at the USPS. Some people collect these posters, fewer made.
Not that we -(philatelist/collector), have an fun from collecting stamp, it is like one diary, like one history book! I'm one small part-time dealer with postage stamp, and personally I have one collection of SERBIA - yes, one small country that was part of great country - YUGOSLAVIA.
If You complete collection of one country, You can learn from this collection almost everything about history of same! Something that I can suggest to all of us - to made one collection - this way, You can keep track of personal root, of native country, of all what You think that it is important for You and Your future.
Best regards to all
Milco
