1. Stamps are printed in vast numbers
2. They are used and, in most cases, eventually destroyed
3. They are difficult to forge (convincingly)
4. Most are virtually worthless
5. A few a almost priceless
6. Many are beautiful
7. They have an inherent research interest - printing varieties,
flaws, rarities, historical interest etc.
8. They are (usually) considered most valuable unused and even
more valuable in an unbroken sheet.

BTW: I realy love wafer masks ... they are just a bit hard to find.
So if one of y'all (sp?) got some laying around ...
