Just as I return to stamp collector hobby we have this PLAGUE from China by negligence or deliberate evil. The entire world is suffering with social distancing and restricting gatherings which hurt collectors from meeting each other in sales shows, conventions and clubs. I officially retire in October and hopefully things will open up so I can tap the brains of more experienced collectors than myself. I'm pretty knowledgeable about U.S.A. stamps but my german heritage is basically amateur. 2021 hopefully everywhere in world is close to normal so stamp collectors can interact in person more easily.
re: Covid-19 hurts Stamp shows and clubs and my German collection
welcome to the warm and fuzzies of our virtual club. There are some really experienced German collectors here, who will likely be able to help; and some more amatuers, like me, who will try.
