Publishing this Boston 2026 World Expo post for future reference. I will be making a donation, especially my hundreds of the same NZ bird stamps! I appreciate the fact that the organizers are offering the stamps not only to the perennial 'youth' but also 'beginners' of any age. Also...glassines.
Update: I put together a package of 3,825 New Zealand and 1,710 US doubles. The former from a bargain pack of a half-dozen bird and other NZ stamps picked up for $2.50 at the most recent stamp show in Kingston. The U.S. were from a packed stock book of US at a previous show purchased for $12. Found a few I needed for my collection, several postmark improvements on some already in the collection, and the rest now going to new homes. That's 5,535 stamps heading to Boston soon!
Update: I saved a dollar on postage by making the weight up to 500 grams. Even so, I had another 600 U.S. and a few New Zealand stamps that wouldn't fit, so those stamps went in a separate mailing, along with some surplus glassines!
