If you were anything like me as a kid, pandas, you probably didn’t pay very close attention in history class. Memorizing dates and names seemed like such a bore, and my teachers could not manage to get the importance of the subject through my thick skull. But now that I’m an adult, I am fascinated by learning more about the world’s past, so I’m doing everything I can to catch up on those lessons I snoozed through.

We’ve all heard of or have seen the rare stamps that fetch thousands or millions at auction. So, when we come across a few that look old, peculiar, or unique we immediately think, “Is this one worth something?” As I peered into an envelope holding a large collection of domestic and international stamps at an estate sale I thought the same thing. By their look I knew they were old, but I would prefer to find out in the privacy of my den. I was excited and a little taken aback when the price came back as ten dollars, which included other things I was buying. “Did they just make a mistake?” “Did they even look?” I asked my daughter who accompanied me on this dig. I hadn’t really looked at the stamps before I’d bought them; the mystery is half the fun. However, I had inspected a piece of folded newspaper in the envelope and found written on the outside in dip-pen “Irish.” The newspaper itself had had a partial date of 1930 and one of the stamps had a cancellation date of 1915. I was hooked. My parents once tried to start me stamp collecting, but my short 11-year-old attention span couldn’t sustain the interest in the maintenance of an album and a sandwich bag of starter stamps. I find that many years later not much has changed, the quantity, age, and uniqueness was staggering my brain. I was amazed at what one manila envelope could hold. The envelope, when I spilled it out on the table contained over 500 stamps from all over the world and most were pre-1925. However, before I started counting my money I needed a reality check In researching stamps and their value I found website after website with tips designed to burst the bubble of anyone who was holding a collection of stamps. All of the sites gave advice to the effect – “Don’t Get excited…” “…probably worth nothing.” “…usually not even worth face value.” The overall impression was that while you may have some that could be worth a small fortune, there are still a multitude of steps you need to go through to verify their value. First, There’s the age. Basically, any stamp from 1930 on is not likely to hold anything more than face value. This is because it was around the 1930’s that stamp collecting become popular and the US government and possibly other governments began printing stamps in higher quantities to feed this passion. If they are older, there is yet another list of variables on which value is based: gum/no gum, franked/un-franked (canceled), centered/un-centered, thin, faded, hinged/unhinged. After reading through all of these I was becoming unhinged! Then there’s the Scott manual, the bible of stamp values, which is a useful tool for understanding the categories and variables that give stamps their value. But even with the knowledge in Scott you still have very little chance of walking away with a tidy sum. The slightest difference from your stamp to the one in the catalog, and I mean microscopic difference, can render your stamp worthless. Additionally, you may need a certificate of quality drawn up by a qualified expert sanctioned by one of the Philatelic institutions so you can verify your stamps are the real (valuable) deal. Exhausted? After all my digging, researching and hoping I just became tired and resolved to the fact that I probably hadn’t found the lost treasure of the Sierra Madre. Heck! I hadn’t even found the stamp commemorating it. But, what I did find was an appreciation for the hobby of collecting stamps. For all the reasons I dig through the past, stamps contain a lot of the same qualities. They are tiny time capsules, in effect “time” stamps of a period in a country’s history. They note changes in country name, leadership, and currency. The process by which they are created, printed, cancelled, and collected is interesting. While I probably should go out and buy an album to sort these, it will be hard to separate them from the unique little folded papers and other odd methods (see below) used by the original owner to do the same. I am still going through these and trying to learn about what I’ve found. In the end I got what I paid for. It won’t secure my daughter’s future Ivy League college bills, but then again, by the time she’s ready for college, they just might. I bought someone's appreciation for collecting and in return it has spawned and renewed my interest as well.

PDF Book ~ Instant Digital Download - Teach Yourself How To Speak HUNGARIAN by the Natural Method with Phonetic Pronunciation By The COUNT de SOISSONS Revised by Mrs. ILONA DE GYORY GINEVER 112 pages The original edition of this book was first published in 1910 ****====================================================**** My Personal 100% Guarantee To You If you Buy this Book and after reading it, You feel that You did not get Your Money's worth from it, Message me and I will cancel your purchase and Refund Your Money. And You Can Keep The Book as My Personal Gift To You. ****====================================================**** PREFACE The publication of Hungarian Self-Taught marks the inclusion of a new group of languages in the "Self-Taught Series," Hungarian being akin to the languages of the Finns, Lapps, and certain tribes in Russia and Siberia, whilst standing quite apart from the Latin, German, Scandinavian and other groups. The main purpose of this manual is to facilitate the speedy acquisition of a working and practical knowledge of Hungarian, as far as possible without the usual long and tedious operation of mastering the Grammar, which many persons find it impracticable or distasteful to undertake, to whom, nevertheless, some acquaintance with the spoken tongue is necessary, or at least advantageous, for the purposes of commerce or of travel and pleasure. The book chiefly consists, therefore, of a large number of comprehensive Vocabularies, and collections of idiomatic Conversational Phrases and Sentences, such as are required for every-day use, carefully selected and classified according to subject. The words in each vocabulary are placed in alphabetical order, and there are cross-references between the vocabularies and the corresponding groups of sentences. The matter is arranged in three columns, viz., first the English words or sentences, then the Hungarian translation, and third, the phonetic pronunciation of the Hungarian words. In the conversations the aim has been to give the colloquial equivalent in Hungarian, rather than the literal translation of the English. The pronunciation given in the third column is in accordance with Marlborough's system of phonetics. This system is the outcome of long experience, and is of so simple a nature that it enables anyone who knows English, however strange to the Hungarian language, to read off the words at a glance, and easily make himself understood amongst Hungarians, with the minimum of trouble in mastering the system. The first section of the book, dealing with the Alphabet and pronunciation, provides the scheme of phonetics adopted in this volume, and in the introductory paragraphs thereto the principles upon which the scheme is based are explained, and particular attention is drawn to the phonetic signs employed to represent the few sounds which are more or less unfamiliar to the English ear. For the benefit of students and others who desire to become more closely acquainted with Hungarian, a very full outline of the Grammar is added, followed by a section on Etymology, and thus the way is opened to the thorough study and mastery of the language. To commercial men, tourists, travellers, students, and all who desire to enter into communication with the Hungarians, this work will prove a useful and valuable handbook of the language. Students will, moreover, find that the book forms an easy introduction to a language which has a quaint beauty of its own, and possesses a remarkable literature, rich especially in heroic poetry.
