Did I read somewhere that there are pages that can never be finished? Did it have to do with Dead Countries....or something about newer books with different pages of information...?
Much appreciated, Jennifer

Jennifer, one of the virtues of the Scott "Blue" International 1840-1940 is that it can be completed. I know of at least a half-a-dozen collectors who have accomplished this. I say go for it!

"....That would be fun!...."
It is fun, no "would be"about it.
Also every time a page of older stamps
from a popular country is completed,
there is a wave of emotional
satisfaction that rolls in. I say older
because most classic stamps appear to
be smaller (= more to a page) and
harder to find whereas many modern nations
spit stamps out like toilet paper. All a
person needs is a fat purse the addresses
of some national stamp retail agencies.
So sit back, enjoy the fun of stamping
and minimise the angst of completion.
Completion, one page at a time, will come in time.

Really enjoying playing with my inherited Junior book. I've been reading past posts on the subject.

Silence in the face of adversity is the father of complicity and collusion, the first cousins of conspiracy..
