| All the stamps are stored in a bank, unfortunately - sigh! Most of my material was bought from Arthur Ryan's Private Treaty list and these I have scanned for this site. Additional scans are courtesy of Elstree Stamps, Mike Holt, K & C Philatelics, Robert Murray Stamp Shop, RPSL, Mint GB Stamps, The R M Phillips Collection, Mark Bloxham Stamps, Andrew Vaughan and Jonz Stamping Ground. These scans are listed here My personal comments on
stamp collecting (philately) This site was awarded Stamp2.com Gold medal in June 2003 Information: see Books The R M Phillips Collection donated to the British Postal Museum in 1965 and covering GB material (1837-1901) is now available on-line, now you can see where all the good GB stuff went! Excellent resource, in fact quite brilliant. I used to visit the British Postal Museum when I was a kid over 35 years ago to see his collection and now I have it on-line. That is pretty cool and it means that you can now have a great cyber collection as the images are free to view and download for personal or educational use. (Digitising of the 2,300 pages of the R M Phillips collection began on 4th Nov 2005 and is now complete). See the full list of the 45 Volumes from the R M Phillips collection here and enjoy.
