ADVICE TO COLLECTORS.
The Difficulty Of Securing Early issues
Of United States Stamps.

The Difficulty Of Securing Early Issues
Of United States Stamps.
There is a growing difficulty In Sc
curing fine copies OF the early issues Of
United states stamps. says St Nicho-
las. The makers OF these issues we're
not required by the government to be
careful in relation to the perfcrating Of
them. The paper was Of a brittle
quality, very easily broken or injured
by careless handling. The postmasters
who Cancelled these stamps cared for
nothing except to thoroughly obliter-
ate them, so that they used unneces-
sary quantities Of ink for this pur-
pose. All these things combined to
make It difficult to find used copies Of
the early issues Of our country In fine
condition. There were few collectors,
and therefore not many OF these stamps
we're saved in unused condition. The
consequence Of this state Of things is
and will be an increasing difficulty In
securing these stamps In such condi-
ton as is acceptable to collectors who
are at all particular as to the looks Of
their albums. These many collectors
take to fill the spaces In their albums
until they can secure stamps Of finer
quality. This seems, on the whole, to
be mistake. for the possession Of a
