Wow, there are so many clippings from envelopes with postage stamps.
Hi Serga. Yes, nice bunch of stamps.
Nice assortment of stamps 😊
Perhaps 1000 stamps 🎉
Duly noted :-)
Germany (whatever is in the 2 Michel specialized catalogs) is one of my favorite areas to collect.. always such great designs
Hi. I have the standard, but I notice some colour variations at least that are not in my catalogue. I am trying to get a cheaper and older set of those Michel Special. In later years, are there variations too? For example, I noticed quite some colour differences in the World of Letter definities, the self adhesives. I bought them on paper, but I just soaked them with water.
Goede video Chris, ik moet ook echt eens wat meer op de stempels gaan letten. Dat doe ik wel als ik alleen de zegel bekijk, maar zoals jij het nu doet met stukken van de envelop erbij maakt het wel direct een stuk interessanter. Goeie muziek onder de slideshows en weer prachtige zegels. ik ben meer van de klassieke zegels, maar als ik die zo zie zitten er echt serieus gave zegels tussen.
Hi Camiel. Duitsland heeft vaak echt mooie stempels. Zelf nu ze Brioefzentrums hebben en niet meteen de plaats van afstempeling erop zetten, hebben ze mooie stempels. Kunnen landen als Nederland en Canada nog wat van leren. Waren leuke dingetjes bij inderdaad.
Really enjoyed ur video, pretty new to the Hobby, but it gives me a lot of Pleasure.
Dein Deutsch ist sehr gut 👍🏻 i
Grüße vom Nachbarland:)
Hallo Dan, my wife is German, so we speak German and Dutch. And in my previous work I had to speak English. I loved speaking all languages. I sometimes get confused though, that I want to speak English but my 'German' brain is more active :-) What are you (planning on) to collect? And yes, it is a really nice hobby. Danke für die Grüße, auch bestens zu dir!
@@chrislovesstamps Hey Chris, Dann hast du einen guten Fang mit Deiner Frau gemacht:)
Ich habe mit BRD Marken angefangen, dann Plattenfehler gesucht. Eigentlich gefällt mir jede Briefmarke aus jedem Land.
Aktuell baue ich eine Sammlung von Rhodesischen (Rhodesia) Marken auf, da mich die Geschichte des Landes interessiert.
Und Lateinamerika interessiert mich sehr, hatte das Glück ein großes Lot mit tollen Marken zu ersteigern.
Dein Video zum Thema Einsamkeit eines Sammler kann ich sehr gut nachvollziehen, hier ist es auch sehr schwer jemanden zum finden wenn man Anfänger ist… aber naja yt hilft ja :)
Danke für deine Antwort, werde dich mal per Email kontaktieren
Grüße
Dennis
@@trapperdan2887hahah. Ja, sehr gute Fang. Sie ist mit Abstand die bessere Helbe von uns 😂 Rhodesien ist interessant, habe ich auch überlegt zu sammeln. Aber es gibt so viel zu sammeln. Und gerne, schick mir ein E-mail!
I have 2 quart bags full of modern German stamps to soak but going to check for special cancels and such before soaking.I don't have many of the barcode stamps yet so will have to go hunting . I have found most adhesive stamps around the world will soak except for US which are a pain .
Hi John. Yep, US stamps are a pain, from the few I tried. What I noticed with the World of Letter definitives (I have hundreds now) is that there is colour differences. I treated all stamps equally, so I wonder if there are really colour differences. I should highlight that in a future episode. I only have a standard Michel German catalogue, maybe the Special catalogue mentions it, I don't know. If you are interested in some stamps, let me know, I literally have hundreds of some of the barcoded ones.
I bought some German kiloware and batch of late 80's-90's DDR kiloware and have separated a lot of slogan cancels as well as several festival and holiday cancels
Slogan cancels. That is interesting. Wonder if there would be any propaganda ones from the DDR.
Hi Chris -very interesting indeed! It seems water (after some time) does the trick with self adhesives. I have avoided self adhesives because I was told you needed a chemical to remove the backing paper. After seeing your video I will give self adhesives a go!! Thank-you for your video !!
Hi Jeff. It all depends on the country and the way they 'set up' their self-adhesives. Canada and Germany is not a problem getting from the paper using regular (luke-warm) water. I heard USA and GB is a problem, if you do not want to use chemicals. Netherlands I am not sure. It can be that Australia (that is where you are, right?) is easy or not at all. Have you tried Australian (or maybe from other countries) self-adhesives? Let me know how it goes, I am curious. On my channel I had the easiest of self-adhesives I think (Canada and Germany). I have a few USA stamps and they did not come from the paper. Thanks for commenting!
@@chrislovesstamps yes I am from Australia - I have tried soaking Australian Adhesive but I think I did not leave in the water long enough - I will give it another go - Jeff :)
Hi Chris - I think I found the solution to seperate self adhesive stamps from paper - Luke warm water did not do it at all -so I tried almost boiling water and the stamp seperate almost right away !! I have tried this with a few self adhesives and success with each one.
The trick is not to leave the stamp in the almost boiling water for long at at all.
Hi Jeff. That goes for Australian stamps, right? Are they known to be hard to get off paper?
@@chrislovesstamps yes - just for Australian self adhesives - they are really hard to get off paper but the almost boiling water dies the trick (I soak in like warm first for about 5 minutes then the almost boiling water )
Great video, Chris, with a lot of variation. Thanks! Wow! You could also soak off the German self adhesives with water! I really become aware that sometimes one will be able to get self adhesive stamps off paper using water and that one doesn't have to immediately use other chemicals. Sorry if I missed, but how warm was the water you used? Did the gum also soak off the self adhesive stamps? ... I liked most of the stamps. I really see, that apart from classic stamps, I also like new stamps. They are frequently really beautiful. You are very strict against CTOs. 🙂 ... About the number of stamps - I have too little experience, but I make a wild guess of about 1300. 🥳
Hi Charnie. I used fairly warm water, not boiling, but a bit warmer than luke warm. No issue getting them off with just water. German modern stamps are not too bad, something about them I like, although they have that barcode thing. But I guess we need to accept it with some countries. Your guess of 1300 is noted. :-)
🙂Thanks for your reply and answers, Chris. 🙂@@chrislovesstamps
I’m surprised to see that you actually handle the stamps??? Your fingers are loaded with oils etc, which will cause damage to the stamps. I was always taught to use tweezers. I do enjoy your videos though, I haven’t been collecting for very long.
Great video Chris, some nice cancels and I do like the lighthouse stamps.
Good thing all those Penny Blacks in everyone's collection have never, ever been touched by human hands in 180+ years.
Thanks Jerry! Yep, the Lighthouse series is really nice.
Hi David. Maybe I should have. But I washed my hands, yes, there'll always be some stuff on your hands, and they are soaked in water. I have used tweezers a lot before, and I still do when soaking them off paper, but sometimes you do need your hands.
@@chrislovesstamps Chris thank you for your reply. Appreciated. I do enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work. Im fairly new to stamps. Still trying to make my mind up as to what to collect, although Germany is certainly one country.
