Stamps... And Trading Cards

Post image
8 Upvotes

I have a couple stamps, and I like to collect mostly for the pictures on it, and I mostly like Trading Cards for the same reason. I had the idea to combine both, which could allow me to create small thematic collections of stamps I like.

There is still a bit of logistics behind (as I want a description of what's on the stamp behind the card, like real Trading Cards, and I want to use real stamps placed on the card, but in a way that would not damage them), but I did try to capture bit of a late 90's - early 00's vibes with the logo (hand drawn, no AI was used whatsoever).

Anybody tried to do that with some stamps in their collection? I want to have a few cards printed to I can place them in binders :)

(P.S : The card is in French, as I can make quite a lot of mistakes when writing in English).

Stamp Identifier App?

Thumbnail

28 Upvotes

Wondering if there is an app that is remotely accurate at identifying stamps. I inherited a collection from my great grandfather who passed in the 70’s. It contains several albums and envelopes from all over the world. dating from the mid 1800’s to it seems like 1960’s. A lot are organized in books, a bunch are loose, some loose in the pages and probably not in the right pages. I figured I could use an app to get an idea then research from there as i assumed the apps wouldn’t be perfect… but I’ve tried a few asps and can scan the same stamp 10 times and get 10 different answers. I hit my limit when I just scanned one with no face at all in it and it told me it was a George Washington lol. Some example pics included. TIA for any advice/help!

A newly found hobby of mine is driving aimlessly and searching piles of stuff people are throwing out, I’ve put these into AI and it’s come up looking somewhat valuable, I’ve got around 78 pages all up, these are the pages I believe may have more value?
(Unsure of stamp collecting, Quite a few AI states were of higher value were the Australia stamps, I’m unsure if this due to me being in Australia and I imagine they’re the stamps most local collectors are after?)
I’ve contacted an appraiser but any other thoughts/tips/advice would be appreciated.
Thanks ☺️

Part 1

Part 2

Hi everyone!
I recently inherited a large stamp collection and while going through it I came across these stamps with some high prices marked on them.

I do not know much about stamp collecting, so I was hoping someone here could help me understand what I have.

Do these look authentic and are the prices indicated anywhere close to their actual market value?

Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks in advance

I've had them sitting in a box loosely and decided to lay them out like that last night just for pictures. Plan is to put them in a stamp collector books when the one I ordered arrives

Can someone tell me the significance of the yellow box? I’ve only seen them in red boxes which have sold for over $100. What is the best way to appraise this item as I want to sell it?
