The Cellar / Stamps, postage, not the feet of recalcitrant waifs

I was rummaging through a drawer and found some stamps.
I was never a stamp collector but some stuck around for awhile.
First I found a few of the X plane stamps I used to send a priority mail envelope to my mother every month,
and my Aunt each month, as they were is different nursing homes.

These are way cool I wish I had saved more.

A whole sheet of Alaska Statehood with one missing.
Hand me down from an Uncle.

Because it sounded like a good idea at the time.
sent an envelope and $5 or $10 bucks to the Sturgis postmaster.

No idea how I got into this one, might have been alcohol involved.
This came from a pro stamp handling company so should be cool.
That paper with the Deep Sea Creatures Medusa on it, is the same size as the envelope.
Not that fits the envelope, the EXACT same size. Can't put it in without folding it.
Even if you pucker or bow the envelope to squeeze the length it's to tall.

Coin collecting is a good hobby for kids... as long as it doesn't come from parking meters or the collection plates.
Make them penny pinchers early...

Learn to give no quarter...
