    I've always wanted to get into stamp collecting. When I was about 10, my father got me a few sets. But I never went far with it. Today while hitting the thriftshops, I came across this vintage cigar box. It was marked at $10 which was an insane price for me to even think about purchasing. But my curiosity (actually my flat out nosiness) made me pick it up for a closer look. As I tilted the cigar case, I felt a bulk of something shift inside. I had no idea of what the contents of this cigar box was at that moment. But it definitely told me to proceed with this purchase and we'll see what comes of it. So I hope you guys like old stamps because I will be posting them for.....oh, probably til the end of summer! =^"

      Aloha vetraio50, I'm still very overwhelmed by this find. I have no idea where to start with looking into these. From what I've partially seen a lot of international & 3 cent postage stamps.
      Thank you & Thank you! =)
