These are USED canceled stamps with no actual face value. I hand-pick your order to be sure you get a variety of colors, themes, illustrations, shapes, sizes, and images. I lay them out to make sure (hopefully) there are no duplicates. If a dup sneaks in, it's really because I couldn't find Waldo ;-). And I always throw in extras just in case this happens so you are sure to get the quantity you ordered with no duplicates! If you order 2 or more packets, you may get duplicates between them, but I do try to limit the number of duplicates when ordering more than one packet. i.e. If you order multiple packets, you will get duplicates across the packets, but not per 100 stamps :-)

These are great for the philatelist (stamp collector), collage, junk journals, mixed media art, stationery, history classes, book covers, journals, altered art pieces, scrapbooking, mixed media, and for those who collect paper ephemera.

Description: Stamps range in size from .5-3" wide x .5-3" tall. Stamps have been used/canceled. Maybe a couple of mint ones here and there will be included. Stamps are either regular issues or commemoratives, and occasionally I include a cover (cut-out stamp printed on envelopes), but only if it's a nice one :-). I sell covers separately.

My stock is sorted separately for US vs World Wide. Sometimes a US or two might make it into the WW packets, but generally not, and if they do it is likely one that is uncommon. If you are interested in US stamps, please see my other similar listing for US only.

Condition:
Good to Very Good, hinged to never hinged (some with hinges still attached), original glue to no glue, etc.. Some wear to corners and edges is to be expected as these are used stamps off paper. Postmarks range from light to heavy and bullseye to hand canceled. A few mint stamps may also show up in the packets. I do not include stamps that are *obviously* torn or damaged. Sometimes a few stamps with the paper still on might be included, BUT these are usually very old stamps with the paper still attached because they were too fragile to have had the paper removed. As I fill orders, I sort out duplicates (hopefully I catch them all), obviously damaged stamps, and stamps not off paper. Again, I try to include enough extras to compensate for those anomalies and human errors.

This picture shows 300 worldwide stamps. 100% satisfaction is my goal ;-). There is a little bit of everything in these lots of stamps. I can fill just about any kind of special request too, especially topical collections. For specific topics, please see my other listings. Flowers, Sports, Space, Birds, Animals, Mammals, Amphibians, Plants, Cars, Ships, Horses, and many more themes and topics are available. Specific countries are available too.
