When you’ve inherited a Stamp Collection…



The Stamp CollectorSeveral times a year I get questions from folks that have inherited stamp collections that have found this blog. Usually, I just direct them to their local dealer or stamp club to get a good appraisal of what they have. Now, there is a new resource on the Internet that I can direct them to that should help tremendously: a web site that contains the complete text of I’ve Inherited A Stamp Collection, Now What? by Charles F. Myers. Mr. Myers has apparently decided to offer the latest edition of his book to the public for free on the Internet, along with a link to donate to the cause if you feel charitable or feel that the book helped you enough that you ought to pay something. Kudos to Charles Myers!
