ABOVE AND BELOW ARE THE TWO ALBUMS CONTAINING OVER 99% OF ALL THE 20th CENTURY COMMEMORATIVES AND ALL THE DEFINITIVES - EXCLUDING DIFFERENT PRINTERS, WATERMARKS, ETC. IN 2007 I BOUGHT A BOOK FROM AN ANTIQUE CENTRE FOR £7.50 IN WHICH HAD BEEN STUCK HUNDREDS OF GB STAMPS INCLUDING MANY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS ISSUES AND LOTS OF HIGH VALUE DEFINITIVES. IN SOME INSTANCES THERE WERE OVER TWENTY EXAMPLES OF THE SAME STAMP. AS CAN BE SEEN FROM THE SAMPLE PAGES ON THE RIGHT, I RE-MOUNTED ALL THE DEFINITIVES IN A RING BINDER. THEN I LUCKILY FOUND AN OLD, BUT UNUSED, ALBUM IN A CHARITY SHOP FOR £1 AND PUT IN ALL THE COMMEMORATIVES, GROUPING COPIES OF ONE, OR SOMETIMES TWO, STAMPS PER PAGE. THE ALBUM AND SAMPLE PAGES ARE SHOWN BOTTOM RIGHT. |
