A very long shot, but does anyone know the location of this sign in Barcelona?

The business is still trading, but at different premises, and I have no recollection of where I took this photo in 2014...

Expectation:.."Bruh Imma get drunk and chill"

Actuality:...

"Shit. No way this stamp was cancelled in a historical 15th century Italian fortress turned commune in 1930 which currently as of right now has a population of 171 people. That's like insane."

Edit: That's why the mark is so clear they had like one person working XD

One of (the four) #stamp albums I got from my grandma. She brought ages ago second-hand. It's got some cool penny reds that I need to research (same century as penny blacks, but not really worth anywhere near).

1980s stamp expo first issues. And first day issues of the QEII's mother's 80th birthday.

Also has a complete set of 1981 christmas stamps drawn by school kids... apart from that nothing much.

Dang thought I had all the regular sized machin #stamps from 1967-69 but I realised there is a 1'9 and a different colour 8d... who tf had an idea to just change the colour for no reason lol.

Luckily I have the rarer turquoise 8d stamp tho.... can't be that hard to find the common red one right??

I'm considering getting a secondary turntable to listen to #Vinyl. My “inner sanctum” and nerd cave is in my office upstairs...where the computers, records, board games and #StampCollection are...but sometimes I like to hang out downstairs and listen to music. So far I have a basic receiver connected to both a Wiim mini (for Tidal/Airplay) and a Raspberry Pi with a hat with optical out for listening via #Plexamp.

My aunt who is one of those Crazy Audiophiles™ just got an Audio Technica Sound Burger for listening via bluetooth - but it also has a standard headphone jack. She's the only person I know that has remotely any experience with it, and for what it is she seems impressed. Does anyone else have experience with a Sound Burger or recommend any other inexpensive turntables for me to bring a few records downstairs every now and then? This secondary stereo is in the dining room where there is a kegerator and I like to do jigsaw puzzles. (I like to live life on the edge - I abide by a 750-piece minimum. 🤘🏻)

How interesting is this!!!

It is a postcard stamp from Bavaria in Germany. I kinda just assumed it was so old that it was before perforatated stamps were a thing, but it is actually a stamp printed onto a postcard.

Kinda neat idea! Save the need to buy a stamp and a postcard.

It is from between 1892 and 1906. You can tell it was from a used postcard as it has cool writing on the back. It also shows it was in a stamp book at one point too!

So I now collect stamps :3 and now my sister does too. I got a bag of like 500 for christmas which I've still not sorted through.

I was gonna go to an antiques place today to buy some but it was closed. Luckily I found a charity shop that sold a few pages of an album someone donated.

I brought two pages (stamps on both sides) and Princess Diana ones. About £13 altogether.

I'm tryna build topical collections.
