And another! This is going to be a happy new year! #philately

Have a lot of stamps waiting mounting, but started in on Japan again a week ago. Finished another page! #philately

Thailand, International Letter Writing Week, issued 1973. Is it cheating to complete a page using a mint souvenir sheet? #philately

Last page of France for today. Here are the complete semi-postal issues from 1952, with one from 1953 showing up. A wonderful day! #philately

Some pages look simple, but this hides a flaw: the cancel is from 2017, though the sheet was issued in 1992. #philately

How about this; two pages completed in one day! And still early. Added the 5 franc at stamp to this page of stamps of France from 1988. #philately

Not a particularly challenging page to complete, but the day is still young! #philately

Another night, another completed page of French stamps (mostly 1950). Easier to come by than last night's page, but... progress! If I keep going at this rate, I'll still never catch up. #philately

What a fine page to complete! #philately

Surcharged in 1999.

Centenary of Indian Cinema: 6 sheets with 50 different stamps. Mint sheets & used singles; now just need the used sheets. #philately
