Oh, I forgot to post that I sent them last Thursday....or Friday. The letters were a bit heavy, so a bonus is that there is a US rate stamp on the cover.

Thanks recieved them today.

Did it fill any holes you had?

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Fri Mar 23, 2012 14:54:15 pm

Got mine today too, thanks very much! They will definitely fill a bunch of holes for me, plus will provide fodder for trading too.

I was very impressed with Canada Post, because the letter came with this protective sheet around it:

Not sure if that was done at your end, or if they caught it mid-travel and protected it. It was bundled with another letter I got from Bahrain today.

Nice stamp on the letter, thanks!

I'll email you to figure out what to send you in return.

Thanks again,
Jean

Don, if you are willing to wait, I've got lots of recent Japan that is still on paper, not sure when I'm going to get around to soaking it. I've sent you an email with other suggestions too - let me know.

My PO does that for all letters I request be hand sorted. I'll hand them a bunch and say: "I don't care about these ones, but these two please hand sort", and they put those labels around those letters, no problem. I have a very nice local PO. I like them so much I give them candy a couple times a year!

I'll have to see if my PO has those too!

Here's the topicals I've found (didn't do too badly after all

) :

Sorry some of the stamps in the bottom row os the stock sheet got cut off, the sheet was too long for my scanner, and I didn't realize until I'd already put the stamps into glassines.

I'll post these next week, work permitting, along with some Spain.

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Fri Apr 13, 2012 16:16:01 pm

Don, just letting you know I'm posting a letter to you tomorrow, topicals plus about 360 Spain. Hope they fill some holes for you.

I received it yesterday. Looks like it will fill a few holes.

If you want to also send those other stamps you spoke of, I sent you fifteen covers this morning, each with a different recent stamp, with about 6 to 9 modern Canada in a glassine in each cover. The overwhelming majority of them being from the latter half of 2007 through present.

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Thu Apr 19, 2012 16:21:38 pm

Wow, lots to look forward to in the mail next week...I'll put together another letter for you...soon...

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Sat Apr 21, 2012 10:11:25 am

A nice pile of letters was waiting for me when I got home today...

Will certainly help my collection and fuel some trades too - thanks!!

uncadonego · **Posted:** Sat Apr 21, 2012 18:17:35 pm

You're welcome

By the way, did they all make it?

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Sun Apr 22, 2012 01:24:23 am

Yup, all 15 the same day!

Canada stamper · **Posted:** Mon Apr 23, 2012 16:17:10 pm

Don, sending a letter tomorrow with ~100 used Japan up 'til early 2000's. I have more recent stuff on paper but only God knows when I will get around to soaking it...hope these fill some holes in the meantime.

Don - did my letter get there yet?

Did some soaking last night - took me 3 hours to fill 2 books - how long does it take you to fill 9??? :shock:

uncadonego · **Posted:** Tue May 01, 2012 02:35:32 am

Yep, I got your letter last Friday. Thanks. I saw some ships and horses in there.

It takes about 8 or 9 hours for me to fill nine books. I use boiling kettle water to make them come off faster.

Maddog, check your e-mail!

Maddog · **Posted:** Wed May 23, 2012 10:32:37 am

Sent.

uncadonego · **Posted:** Mon Jun 11, 2012 20:05:59 pm

Maddog, did you get the letters? You have to open them, because there is a hand cancelled number 8 envelope inside every number 10 envelope I sent.

Maddog · **Posted:** Wed Jun 13, 2012 11:19:30 am

Yes I did. Thank you very much, posted them here.

Unacadonego,

Recieved 12 covers from you today. Very much appreciated. I will scan and post in the other thread later. Too bloody hot right now, 36 deg C and no air conditioner so I have to get out to the pool before I melt. But wanted to take the time and thank you.
