    what stamps you into?
    why I don't do garden hybrids and aquarium strains: natural species is a history of Nature, while hybrids are just the whims of Man.

    Still hunting for some earlier issue, especially this one :
    150th Anniversary, Special Commemorative Issue, National Day 9th August 69Mini Sheet, price should be around S$1k for Unmounted Mint Condition.

    What about you ?

    the local "stanley gibbons" still alive? I shop with some of the UK mail bid house and the specialist KGVI guys like Murray Payne. Also on eBay where there are less people who appreciates British Empire/Commonwealth. I have been a member of KGVICS and Malaya Study Group for many many years.

    I know they moved to Eunos but didn't keep track of them and didn't hear of them for a long time. Thought maybe they have closed shop.

    My collection so so only lah, cannot exhibit still. Although I did spend quite a lot but then it is a vast field.
