Hi Jacob,

try using a plain lined spiral notebook. As you get something in you can record the date, from whom, the contents and if you have to send a thank you or follow up. You could also note if you have posted onto Stampboards and the thread link.

Or if Jacob hates handwriting as much as me, make use of an MS Word/Excel document

Hello Jacob here.

Here is a nice block of 4 predecimal Australia.

Now I think the watermark is a C of A :?:

And I had a problem finding it in my Stanley Gibbons. :?:

I like the cancel also.
Looks to me like Adelaide.

Jacob.

Hi Jacob,

Nice block. It is SG 140, used value £2.25 for a single. Definitely C of A watermark and Adelaide cancel, as well!

muruk · **Posted:** Sat Oct 22, 2011 20:56:36 pm

Not ADELAIDE ... there's a word missing in front of it ... NORTH, SOUTH, PORT?

luvthecmonwealth · **Posted:** Sat Oct 22, 2011 21:01:22 pm

Well, part of it says Adelaide

Jacob · **Posted:** Sat Oct 22, 2011 21:51:31 pm

Jacob here,
Well Dad just got home a little while ago and he says
" It looks like a Stanley Gibbons #129 " :?:

I think he may be right :?:

Jacob.

Hi Jacob here,

Here's some Hong Kong stamps.

Who knows one day they may be worth something :?:

Still I like them. :lol:

Jacob.

Hey Jacob,

Just stopping by to say what a great thread ou have created!

Tonnes of enthusiasm, and great stamp pictures.

Did the CTO lot arrive safely?

Hope you liked the cover with the 2011 Colours of Cocos Islands Franking I used. :mrgreen:

EVERY stamp collector should buy a few sheets of those and use them for postage.

Jacob · **Posted:** Sun Oct 30, 2011 17:37:21 pm

Hi Mr Tassie stamps.

I have been a bit quite online lately.
Swamp with School work :twisted:

Sure did get some and I really like the Cocos islands cover stamps.

BIG THANKS :mrgreen:

Pleased you like my thread.
I am less than 500 more views and I shall be up to 10000 views.
Dad says that is good going for a thread coming up to 1 year old. :lol:

THANKS AGAIN FOR HELPING ME WITH MY STAMPS. :!:

Jacob · **Posted:** Tue Nov 01, 2011 08:00:34 am

Here is one from North Korea.
Stanley Gibbons # msn2327

I bought 100 of these on a ebay auction for $7.46

I might do another give away quiz with some of them.
And have some fun. :lol:

So if you would like one of these M/s below here is the quiz question.
I have a 1d New Zealand postage due flaw.

The first person to post a reply with a scan of it here gets a M/s like the one below.

You will find the answer on one of my post. :lol:

Jacob.

Jacob · **Posted:** Thu Nov 03, 2011 08:22:43 am

Jacob here.

Hey this is a bit strange that nobody has claim my quiz stamp give away. :shock:

I forgot to mention all post paid by me and I will send it in one of my home made covers with nice stamps on it.

I might have to put a link to the sell and give away thread to it. :lol:

Jacob.

Jacob,

I love checking in to see how your collection is growing. I have to admit that I am a tad envious, you have some great items.

This relates to one of my favourite stamps (I once had a t-shirt with it emblazened on the front).

Unless Stanley Gibbons have renumbered since the 2007 Australia Catalogue, I think you need to check the perforations and look at SG170 or SG188. The Koala is part of the 1937-1949 Zoological Series. I think the SG129 is a 4d KGV.

Checking PPA, I think for the "space" provided, the postmark belongs to North Adelaide.

Would this be the NZ Postage Due flaw you posted as a quiz question?

Keep up the great work

Jacob · **Posted:** Fri Nov 04, 2011 06:51:31 am

Hello Jacob here.

1st stamp you are right with my flaw and thanks for the info on my Koala block.

Please send me your address and I will mail you the train M/S

Pleased you like my stamps.

Have a nice day.

Jacob.

Jacob · **Posted:** Sat Nov 05, 2011 07:23:00 am

Hi Jacob here.
Here is something different from me.

Yugoslavia.

Nice little set of stamps. :?:

Have a nice week end.

Jacob. :mrgreen:

Jacob · **Posted:** Sat Nov 05, 2011 17:51:21 pm

Hi Jacob back again.

Good grief - is it really that old already? Doesn't time fly when you're having fun with stamps (or is it because we're all just getting older?) :lol:

Well then, in that case, happy anniversary Jacob!

Send me your postal address by the Stampboards email, and I'll send you your first birthday pressie! :wink:

Jacob - just noticed these, by the way, and they bring memories of when I once lived in Northumbria in England. There is a huge outdoor museum there called the Beamish Museum, which is like a whole town made to the style of the olden days.

One of the features, I remember (this was ten years ago, when I was around 9 years old), was being able to ride on a coal-powered steam train, just like that one there in the picture. The two or three drivers were smeared all over with black coal dust!

Jacob · **Posted:** Sun Nov 06, 2011 07:01:56 am

Mr Catweazle I am pleased to bring back some nice memories for you.

Yes I am nearly up to 10000 views on my thread. :lol:

Merry Christmas.

Jacob.

Hello Jacob here.

Thought I should start showing my Coco Keeling Islands collection.

I have these on Seven seas album pages.

Here is page one.

Not long now till Santa comes.
Hope you have all been good this year. :?:

Jacob · **Posted:** Fri Dec 02, 2011 08:07:24 am

Jacob here again.

Here is page 2 from my Coco Keeling Islands collection.

I bet you are wondering how many seven sea pages I am up to. :?:

Well you will just have to keep looking to find out. :lol:

Jacob.

Jacob · **Posted:** Sat Dec 03, 2011 08:47:41 am

.

Jacob back again to show more of my Cocco Keeling Islands.

Here is page 3 and 4.

And just for some fun.

I think maybe I should start a guessing game here were you guess how many
7 Seas pages I have in my Cocco Keeling Island collection.

For the correct guess I will send you some Australian kiloware. :lol:

Postage paid.

30/30 rules apply.

Have fun . Jacob.

Brummie · **Posted:** Sat Dec 03, 2011 09:19:35 am

Do they have to have stamps in the pages or just how many pages?

Jacob · **Posted:** Sat Dec 03, 2011 09:27:48 am

Mrs Brummie

They have to have stamps on the page.

Some pages are missing a stamp or 2 but the pages must have a stamp there.

Come on have a guess. :lol:
