Frame them. (There are lots of people who do this – I have a framed set of Muppet stamps) Put them in a Superman stamp album (It does exist). And buy Liberty bell stamps for everyone else. And, by the way, if you want other superman stamp stuff (postcards, envelopes with pictures of superman on them with superman stamps, superman stamps from other countries) – drop me a line, I can tell you how to get them.

There was an exhibit here in Boston a few years ago about Japanese postcards. Postcards started off as sort of a primitive email and then people started collecting them. So Japanese artists started doing clever things with the art and you could eventually subscribe to postcard magazines and it was a big thing. I absolutely loved these little postcards, wished I had a collection, and I think their size had a lot to do with it.

The little bear in the bottom right corner, for sure, and I’m pretty sure I remember the skunk also, which would mean I had the others since they came in a set.

And I was a hoarder too…but that’s because I was (am) an only child and I hoard everything.
