Postmarks
« on: August 23, 2009, 08:51 AM »
Hi!!!!
I collect postmarks and was wondering if anyone has any to add to my
collection. My collection is huge and I would eventually like to get
a world record for them.
If you have any to spare please let me know the city state or country
they are from and I will let you know if I need them.
THANKS!!!! :) :) :)

postmarks can be as fun as stamps, especially if one comes across a creative one. however i hardly come across any snail-mails these days unless you count 'junk-in-the-mail' types. :)

I'm in Bryan, TX.  I can also send something from a post office on the university campus here.  I believe they used to postmark as Aggieland.  I don't know if they still do that, but I seem to recall getting something marked as Aggieland recently.
