I like collecting stamps because I am given them.
Sources
from people who have
been on holiday.
I get them off letters and postcards.
I have got them all in albums.
My best country is bulgaria and the u.s.a
I have got lots of albums
Care of stamps.
I stick my stamps on with a hinge on the back of the stamp.
and then stick them in the stamp album. Paper corners are also available
paper corners avoid the need for adhesive on the stamps
you must not put your fingers on a stamp because you can get acid on them
from your sweat. You should use tweezers to handle all your stamps. You
must not put your stamps in sunlight because it fades the stamps.You must
keep your album closed and in a cool dry place
I get my stamps when i go on holiday you can swap them if you have got
doubles
I get my presentation packs from the post office
you know when they come out you see adverts on tv and hear them on radio
you also see them on notice boards

MY BULGARIA STAMPS
Above is my Bulgaria stamps page. People gave me all of these stamps,
some of them had to be removed by steaming off the envelopes
Here's how
You will need long tweezers
kettle
You will have to put the kettle on first, then let the kettle boil, next,
pick up the envelope to be steamed off using the tweezers, so that your
fingers are clear of the heat. You must not force the stamp off the
envelope.
Just wait for the glue to soften and gently remove the stamp once you
have taken off the stamp you can put it in the album
