The windfall of someone giving you an old collec-tion, "which uncle had when he was a boy," doesn'thappen very often. All these things are additional ways of adding to yourcollection but by far your greatest source of supply forstamps is the stamp dealer. This being the case it wouldbe intelligent to know how to buy stamps. Stamps are sold by dealers in mixtures, packets, sets,and in single specimens. The individual cost of thestamps you acquire increases exactly in respect to theorder in which we have listed them: from the lowest-costto the highest-priced single specimens. "Ho! Ho!" you say. "I'll buy all my stamps in mixturesand save money!" |
