I invited my channel viewers to show and tell me about something of theirs at Stampex. This first time ‘show & tell’ gave me the opportunity to meet the wonderful viewers of this channel, while learning some cool things along the way.

You meeting Lara and Emma shows how much you inspire young generations! Thank you.

@ExploringStamps Год назад

😊 Meeting young collectors like Lara, Emma, Lukas and Christopher was amazing, I think they inspired me even more. Thanks for watching, Basil

@robertbridge7678 Год назад

Graham thank you for again sharing your experiences. The Video's show us a lot of different collector's interests, gives some inspiration to expand to areas that we might never had even thought of!! A lot of the public seem to think that Philatelists are ancient individuals in dark dusty old rooms!!! But to see the variety of ages that you have interviewed it gives new meaning and hope to the hobby!!! Thank You!!!

@ExploringStamps Год назад

You are very welcome, Robert. The variety of ages and personalities was amazing, it’s exciting to see how different people collect and build their collections. I hope to do this again because I really enjoyed it. Thanks for watching 😊

@yvescote2808 Год назад

This is one of your videos that are memorable in many ways! Sharing moments in history that are so vibrant for me. Me who is an admirer of Her Majesty Elizabeth II, to see documents and people who had the privilege of meeting her, it touched me a lot! I really liked seeing that a tribute was made to you and to Liza from Cat Stamps! Thank you very much for this virtual tour.

@ExploringStamps Год назад

Thank you 😊. Queen Elizabeth II definitely was on the minds of everyone at Stampex this year, so many wonderful items were shown and shared with her memory. Glad you enjoyed the episode, thanks for watching!!

@ChacoteOutdoorRecreation Год назад

I am very proud of the community, any event with large numbers of rival Philately gangs has the potential for chaos often resulting in angry worded letters almost being sent back and forth, but this was peaceful enjoyment of the coolest hobby on earth with the coolest people sharing what they love, with others that love it just as much. If someone asks you if the world would be better if more people collected stamps, just answer of course!

@gerryfedde3040 Год назад

If ever there was a video that captures the flavor of what it's like to be at a premier stamp show, this was it. It was especially revealing to see young people enthusiastic about collecting stamps, just as I was many decades ago (and still am now). Also striking was to learn that In Great Britain, at least, there are even stamp clubs in schools. Thanks for the great tour. I felt like I was right there.

@ExploringStamps Год назад

Thank you Gerry 😊. Meeting the young folks that were enthusiastic to share their collections with me was just wonderful. I learned a lot, and got really inspired by talking to them. Thanks so much for watching 😊

@jameswardell1840 Год назад

Though I mainly collect Canada and US stamps and postal history, I do have a small 'World' collection. And that includes a British folded letter similar to Oliver's which is postmarked April 30, 1840. Like him I've always looked at it as the end/beginning of an era. Thanks for showing us collectors showing us. Always great to see what interests other people. Cheers!

@jameswardell1840 Год назад

Thanks Ted. I totally agree when it comes to youth and engagement with children. The UK has some really good programs that inject some great energy into the hobby. Thanks for watching 😊

Just came across this video & channel by accident. Interesting to see the address on the Himalayas Expedition cover is one I walk past nearly every day for the past 30yrs. 😀 Nice seeing different levels of collectors, makes me feel adequate now. 😳😂

@ExploringStamps Год назад

@ExploringStamps Год назад

Thank you Jeff! Magnus did a great job explaining the significance of the postcard, and his connection to it. I think I wiuld like to do more of these episodes in the future. Thanks for watching 😊

@joyseng Год назад

Glad to know that there is this group of Stamp Active that promotes philately among the young in the UK. More countries should have this!

@keesdewaard206 Год назад

Thank you again Graham for a very interesting view. This is a really nice idea to have others show their cool items and explain where their collecting interests lie, that might just inspire some new collection ideas. A great rhino you got by the way! And I loved how the Dutch town 'Scheveningen' was pronounced.

@PunkPhilatelist Год назад

What a fantastic video, Graham! Something that online philately hasn’t quite buttoned down yet is interactive show’n’tell, but I think you just nailed it. So great to see the diversity in topics. Whatever you want, you can collect! 🤜🏼🤛🏾

@ExploringStamps Год назад

Thanks Punk! It was an experiment that I wasn’t sure would work, but I’m thrilled with the outcome and look forward to doing this again in the near future. Glad you enjoyed it 😊

@avilacanario Год назад

I thoroughly enjoy watching your videos. I hardly consider myself a stamp collector. Though I do have some stamps put away but not in any order or theme - from my younger days. It's wonderful see these people presenting their stamp collections at these shows, especially the younger people - hoping to see that philanthropy continues on into the next generation. 😊. I was astonished to that young man pointing out his stamps with the finger that he indicated them with.

@ExploringStamps Год назад

Thank you 😊, it’s so good to see that you enjoyed the episode. Watching the young folks talk about their stamps and collections really is energizing, one of my favorite things about this trip. Thanks for watching 😊

@olivermiller2013 Год назад

After looking your Nepal video and the topic with the Everest stamp from 1924 I thought, it would be interesting to see a letter with it. I have one of these stamps and I read a bit about the expedition, but I never saw a letter. And now, thank you Magnus, we have one of these letters. Fanatstic. Overall there were so many nice and interesting items shown in this video. Interesting the sheet issued with 41 pieces sent only to some handwritten people, I have never heard of it. The Guyana stamps and the really nice Swedish letters and, and, and... This was really nice to see.

@allanwestphall8108 Год назад

An interesting video and very refreshing, truly! When I was at Stampex last I just walked around on my own and bought a Penny Black on cover. I must get better at talking to folks! Oh, I vote for May 6!

@ExploringStamps Год назад

Thanks Allan, glad you enjoyed the episode 😊, I’ll add another point to team May 6.

@ldr316 Год назад

Some additional info (a bit late). The "red line" on Oliver Tull's cover is the numeral "1" that signifies the postage of 1d (one penny) to mail the letter. As stated in the video, the use of red means that the sender paid the postage. Had it been in black ink, the amount would have had to be collected from the recipient. The "coin" on Christopher's covers are actually medals, not coins. (There are covers that include actual coins in a similar fashion.) The reference to "coins and stamps" on one cover relates to the fact that Machin's portrait was used on British coins from 1968 to 1984, as well as the coins of Rhodesia, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. In fact, the effigy was originally intended for coins; only later was it accepted for stamps as well. June 6, 2017 marked the 50th anniversary of the Machins. The final cover Christopher showed was from 2007, marking the 40th anniversary.

Hi Graham - I watched your vid on removing self-adhesive stamps. I was talking to a philatelist recently about this and they mentioned they ways stamps had been designed to prevent fraud if not postmarked. I had a go with hot water on these self-adhesives and they seemed to come off pretty well. What are your thoughts on hot water versus an adhesive remover?
