    I went to this Rummage Sale last Saturday. As I walked in I saw this box of those three ring binders against the wall and didn't really think much about them. I see those by the boxes for free, and just thought they were empty.
    Anyway, on my way out, I decided to look at them. As I moved the box, I noticed it was quite heavy, they obviously were not empty. I took one look and asked the lady "how much for this box?", she said "$20.00".
    As is turns out I got 635 USPS First Day Issue Commemorative Stamp Sheets in NM to M condition, all preserved in protective sleeves.
    The dates range from 1974 to 1992.
    I think it was a good day.

      Some people have all the luck, I would get a box full of "Postage Due". Good to see you posting again and thanks for sharing your find.

      Packrat Keep in mind that the knowledge and advice you share here is equally as important as you posting new treasures. Many of us here have the greatest respect for you and the wisdom you share with us.

      Thank you very much Manikin, fortapache, fhrjr2, Mrstyndall, nutsabotas6, vetraio50, roddyq, Caperkid, trunkman, brunswick, TheGateKeeper.
      fhrjr2, you are too kind, sir.....much appreciated, just as I feel about everyone here.
      Long story, wrong forum, much condensed....VA misdiagnosis five years ago, now I am in a 20 week "step-down" program to get off an awful medication I should not have taken for five years in the first place. I am getting "re-wired".

      I know the routine with the VA brother. Stick in there, if you need to vent let me know and I will give you my email. I will sit up all night if need be, you say the word and it's done.
