Hello from Hot, Rainy, Muggy South Florida,
Read your post. It is interesting and so true.
Sorry to say, I only share my stamps finds, albums, etc. with my daughter.
Unfortunately I do not have anyone to share my collections with.
I occasionally scan some engraved hunting and fishing stamps in high resolution and post images on a fishing board.
This week one of the employees I supervise was at the site with her dog. I couldn't remember where I had seen that dog. Then she said it is an akita - a Japanese breed.
I e-mailed her the images below and I think that made her happy.
When you think about it we are all sharing our stamps with many friends here on Stamporama.
Cougar, some time back I remember watching a lovely movie about an Akita - the main actor was Richard Geare- but unfortunately I'm not sure of the name of the movie, but Hachi rings a bell.

I share my albums, books and ephemera with thousands of folk......all via my laptop !!
That Hachi movie is an excellent film, assuming you watch it in a dust-free setting. I made the mistake of watching it during allergy season with a cat in my lap. There may also have been a sandstorm, and I was eating jalapenos. The plot is easy to follow, even if you are blinded with tears from all of the outside influences!
Shared with family, friends & associates.
Stored stamp albums in carry on luggage when traveling.
PS- The dog movie about Akita is very touching. I wonder if that 2009 dog is still alive today ?
"Hachi" is "Eight" in Japanese. Perhaps number eight in a litter ?
Most Collectors shared their stamp albums to friends or family. As for myself, I shared them with my family & friends. Sometimes, I bring my stamp albums & share them with my co-workers & oversea business associates. I store my stamp albums in Carry On Bag when traveling. Here are 2 question for Stamp Collectors:
Who do you share your stamp albums with?........(friends, family, associates, etc)
What do you use to store your stamp collection when traveling?......(luggage, carry on bag, suitcase, etc)
