The aim of this website is to be an on-line resource for collecting GB stamps.
The website is still in development - you can see its progress by coming back every now and then.

Things still to do (May 2009):

  • Data Entry - Never ending task, but now have over 5100 items and 17,000 issues now (May 2009).
  • Content - Database data is a bit dry, need some opinion and background text - markup test
  • Images - Using my own images as far as possible although contributors are welcome. (see 1973)
  • Search - Search engine enhanced with more keywords and flexible entry (April 2007)
  • Links - Provide more information and links for sets and stamps (Wikipedia etc) - see page for 1990
  • Update Wikipedia list of GB Postage Stamps at Collect GB Stamps Wikipedia GB Postage Stamps (ongoing)
  • Album Pages - Initial trials to generate printable album pages (April 2007) - see British Ships, Royal Mail and Crimean War PDFs. Also see an example of how a year might look - 1982. Still a long way to go on this. (April 2007)
