- I pull a stamp from Brazil displaying the Carioca Aqueduct. This leads me into a discussion about the world's second country to issue a postage stamp, Brazil and the 1843 Bull's Eyes.

I re-started collecting after finding my childhood stamps and was so embarrassed for not knowing that Brazil was the 2nd place to use postal stamps!! thank you so much
Another great video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Congratulations.
I am Brazilian, and I am very happy to see you helping Brazilian philately. Again my congratulations
Thank you, glad to help the hobby :)
Olá Ricardo! Você coleciona selos? Têm interesse em trocar alguns???
99% on CZcams lacks substance and depth, yet receives lots of views. This on the other hand is quality work with real interesting history / geography lessons from which I learn alot. This channel deserves a big shoutout to crank up subscribers and number of views. Well done on your work so far Graham!!
Super appreciative of your comment Kolbjørn, its pleasing to hear that you are learning and enjoying the channel as much as I am enjoying making the videos. Thank you!!
As always excellent video and Philatelic history. Those bullseye stamps are simple, yet beautiful.
Absolutely, I love the style and simplicity of them. Thanks for watching :)
Looking forward to your next video.
You should have been a history teacher or professor! In fact, I wish you had been my history teacher, then I would have had a better grade! Another great philatelic history lesson and video. I give it a ten 👍🏻.
Awesome I will gladly accept your ten. haha thanks for watching as always Gary. :)
Nice classic stamps with good margins. Well done.
another fine video. i was not aware of that aqueduct... thank you for sharing
I hope to one day visit Rio, the first thing on my 'to-see' list will be the aqueduct. :) thanks for watching!
Each episode is fantastic. I learn so much history and more. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Teresa :D Glad you are learning along with me. Thanks for watching!
In Portuguese: Excelentes vídeo e explanação. A produção é verdadeiramente profissional.
Parabéns e muito obrigado por mostrar ao mundo as belezas da filatelia brasileira.
Que bom que você gostou. Muito Obrigado. :)

Another "Bull's Eye" for Exploring Stamps. Every time I watch an episode, it motivates me to do some more work on my stamp collection.
Reading comments like these motivate me to do more work on MY stamp collection :) Thanks Chai
Great episode, I didn't know Brazil produced the second postage stamp, I'm sure I don't have any stamps from Brazil, I must rectify this straight away. Thank you for another fascinating video....
Oh definitely rectify this asap! :) Glad that you enjoyed the video Karen, thanks for watching!
Hello Karen, would you be interested in stamps from Brazil? I have several and, if you want, we can exchange some !!!
I was blown away by this video. SO much I didn't know. Thank you for enlightening me
Bravo! Splendid video as always. Thanks for what you do...😊
Thank you :)
As usual a great video! Thank you.
Thanks Eugenio!!
I enjoyed the video very much again
Excellent, glad you enjoyed it Henny
Awesome! As a Brazilian I can say information is 100% accurate my preferred BR stamp is Pele issue 1969 in celebration os his goal # 1000
The '69 Pele stamp is a beautiful one and a must-have for the Brazilian collector! I got to keep an eye out for it :) Glad you liked the video and thanks for watching.

I'm a philatelist from India and I love your videos !!!! Keep up the good work mate !! 🤩
I always wait for the right time to watch "Exploring stamps" videos. Sometimes that means I have to wait two days before I can watch without being disturbed, it is always worth the wait though.
Ah yes... Undisturbed with a cup of coffee, that's the right way to watch "Exploring Stamps" :D Thanks for your awesome comments and for always watching!
Beautiful episode!!!
Thanks Alex! :)
Congrats! Another great video, even more if it's about my beloved Country!
This channel deserves more subscribers.
:)
Awesome video! I always learn so much from you. I am goimg to look out for some of these Brazilian stamps. Take care! Keith
In Portuguese, the word for stamp is "selo" which is the same word for seal. This might be a result from what you mentioned on 5:22, how the Bull's Eye (Olho de Boi) was used as seal! Congrats for the video! Watching from São Paulo, Brazil
Awesome videos great job Graham kudos
Thank you George, and thanks for watching :)
Fascinating 🧐! I love the Brazilian bullseye 🎯 stamps! I always thought Brazil was kinda primitive. Since they were the second country to issue postage stamps I’m wrong as can be. Thank You Graham you are absolutely priceless!
Great Video and great competence!
Really good episode, so interesting.
:D Glad you like it Sarah, keep an eye out for some Brazilian stamps!
Great episode! I have some of these. Thanks for the info. Makes me want to hunt down some more!
Excellent! I'm the same, I enjoyed learning about Brazil's postal history and will be keeping an eye out for more Brazilian stamps. Thanks for watching :D
I think we should start a campaign to call the US 1 "the Benny Brown!"
I like it! I'm in, time to find myself a 'Benny Brown' :)
Great channel!
Thank you, glad you enjoy it :)
Thanks' a anther great information on stamp's
Great video!
I knew Brazil was the second country to issue a postage stamp for use in the entire country but I didn’t know all about the history behind their first stamps! So interesting!!
Nice video and awesome stamps I think I have seen the 1850 stamp set.
Graham, very interesting, as usual!. I don't have these stamps, but now, I had to buy my 30th album, as I got stamps from a friend tht had a lot of stamps from 1957-1960 and more...not counting what I had in France and Los Angeles. Anyway, thanks for the video. David
Whoa your 30th album! Impressive!! Well done David and keep it going, glad you liked the video :)
And this only in Israel. Back when I started in Paris, in 1972 (age 8) to age 16, I had 25 albums and from1980 to 1992 that I lived in the U.S.A. I had 20 albums...but I had to cut it short because my mother died in 1992...I burried her in Israel, and since then, I live here. But I look for stamps and whatever I find that is good, or that is given to me, I take. Until our next Youtuibe conversation, David
I've already written a comment about the very expensive Pack Strip which features different denominations together (se-tenant) as one stamp (sort of ). I was re-watching your video and noticed at exactly 8:44 you have a photo to explain how this happened. The 30, 60 and 90 were produced as one sheet, 18 of each, that was meant to be separated by the postmaster. The three panes had a line between them where the cut was to be made. Obviously some postmaster didn't separate them and cut out a 30 and 60 together to make a 90 instead of just using a 90. Thus was born a very rare combination of se-tenant stamps!
I live in Spokane Washington, another location for the the Worlds fair/Expo. The interesting thing about our worlds fair is it’s still the worlds smallest worlds fair. We also had a visit from President For, and over $150 million dollars was pumped into the economy because of it.
Very good and interesting episode. Just for the heck of it I looked up the value of the three stamps in Scott's (2015). The 30r is $550, the 60r is $300 and the 90r is $1400 - these are used prices. They are expensive but are affordable if the buyer saved up for a while. I'm not sure if I have this right, but it looks like a pair of #1 and #2 together is worth $950 000 - WOW! So it was obviously quite uncommon to use a 30r and a 60r instead of a 90r. Great show - thanks!!!
A bit more info - The $950 000 referred to in my comment was, I think, for the "Pack strip" where a 30r and a 60r were together on the same sheet ( se-tenant ) and not just on the same envelope. Check out the link provided, wouldn't it be nice to find that in your box of stamps? siegelauctions.com/2008/957/957pdf/Islander_Brazil.pdf
That's just crazy! Before researching these stamps, I had no idea that Brazil's firsts were so desired and rare. Pretty cool! Glad you enjoyed it :)
@@ExploringStamps I just bought a large "P lot" on E-Bay in order to get a selection of U.S Philippines that I need. I got a bonus in that there was a very good selection of older Peru stamps - an area I always wanted to start collecting. Peru has some very interesting stamps, you might want to consider that country for a future program. It's a fairly straight forward country for the beginning collector since there are not a lot of perforation and watermark differences to worry about. The US is actually one of the hardest countries to collect, the varieties of the early stamps can drive you crazy. I've taken over an hour for some stamps and end up still not sure if I have it right. I hope you don't mind the long e-mails but your program makes me want to do that!!!
Interesting! I know very little about Peru and its stamp/postal history, so I look forward to stumbling upon the topic in the future. It makes me realize that there are soo many topics and countries that I am yet to 'explore'.... I could really do this full time! I do Not mind the long comments, keep em coming! Thanks Joseph!!
Always good Videos! Nice song 0:05
Thank you, yes the song pretty catchy :)
I lived in Brasil as a kid, that's where I got started in Philately, even though I am American from Ohio....and at the time in the 70s....rampant hyperinflation, with letters covered in colorful stamps....youngest brother was born down there in Sao Paolo....hence his name is Paul....LOOOL! Coincidence....I think not...But I still have quite the stash of Brasilian stamps....it's my second country, had a Bullseye, but sold it off along with a lot others due to "2 legged deer" issues....she wanted ice, and kept selling off collections due that very real reason...ROFL!!!!
Another super awesome video. Keep up the awesome videos! Is making stamp videos your full time job?
Thank you Ken, no it isn't a full time job, I just do this as a hobby.
@@ExploringStamps Oh, Thank you so much. I love your videos.
Another awesome video. I am trying to figure out what sort of moron could have given this a thumbs down.
Thanks Dennis! who knows?! maybe it was just an accident and they meant to hit the thumbs up button instead .... or not ;)
Excellent video, and some new information, even for a long-time Brazilian philatelist as I. One comment (around 1:30 in the video): the Brazilian currency in 1939 was "Réis". The Brazilian Real was enacted only in 1994.
The old Brazilian Real was in use until 1942, plural known as Reis.
@@ExploringStamps Exactly !
I love the introduction with "Ho ho ho" 😂
:D The song has been stuck in my head since making this video.
Excelente Vídeo Aula. Reproduzido em meu Blog AULAS COM FILATELIA, sendo devidamente citada a fonte.
speaking of epic names, would you do an episode about the Principality of Moldavia Aurochs' Head issue? (considered the first Romanian stamp).
Another very interesting stamp, I did read a little about it and would love to learn more for an episode.
@@ExploringStamps I could help, possibly if I knew how to contact you.

@@ExploringStamps done, please check your email :)
The best of the best of the best of the best of the best of the best
Thank you thank you thank you thank you :D
Very well done. Just one thing the currency in that time was Réis and not Real. But that doesn't affect the good work. Thank you for sharing. Cheers
It was so nice to see yout video! I actually work at the philately administration at the Brazilian Post, as an historian, and I am really happy to see your content! One curiosity: we recently issued a mini sheet that the "arcos da Lapa" appears, it is about the 100 year of a Brazilian rythm that was born at Rio de Janeiro: "Choro". You can see the mini sheet here: blog.correios.com.br/filatelia/?p=43283
Hi Mayra! Can we connect? I have a journalist friend writing an article about early Brazilian astronomy stamps for a magazine. She has some questions that she would love to speak with someone about and perhaps point her in the right direction. Could you please send me an email: explorestamps@gmail.com ? - Graham
good night friend, a doubt you can clarify that to certify stamp business, I choose PSE because it seems that she went broke because I already sent several emails, I can not talk on the phone, finally I believe I have a philatelic find. ( locomotive baldwin 3 cents whitout grill, a seam of stamps from Brazil with print on both sides and others from England can you help me ? I live in Brasil
Your presentation in this video is very good, congratulations. I believe the 90 reis stamp "bulls eye" shown is a fake copy.
Where are not stamps?
Did you throw them?
The pens conquering the Cinderellas!
Ah those got placed in an album (in the cinderella video) :)
Exploring Stamps oh! I forget that episode! 😊
Great video, very interesting but unfortunately the 90 reis stamp shown here is a forgery (looks like those made by Georg Zechmeyer)
Ah yes! I received a few emails from viewers in regard to the 90. It seems that over the 3 seasons I have stumbled upon a few forgeries, so I hope to do a video about them and use them to educate myself and my viewers on avoiding them and perhaps getting them expertised. Glad you like the video and thanks for watching 😃
Amazing content as normal,Brazil is one of those country's that some people know....but not EVERY one knows about there history
