Since I started this endeavor last October, I have now published 200 articles. That is about 120,000 words. I have personally succeeded greatly in that the research I am now constantly doing is greatly expanding my knowledge and I have come across many new personal revelations. As I hoped it would, the archive of articles is perhaps the biggest asset of the enterprise. When you search it on the sidebar, sometimes the website only gives you a thumbnail. Remember to click on the picture of the stamp to get the whole thing.
Here are links to a few of my favorites if you missed them.

I hope over time my writing and proofreading skills will improve and that if my readership continues increasing that eventually we will all enjoy a lively comment section. Thanks for reading and come again tomorrow for another story that can be learned from stamp collecting.
