Mark
I'd like to nominate psquareh for his thread 'Exploring the 1867 Issue of The Netherlands'
https://www.stampboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=6753026#p6753026

A very interesting read on a topic that appears well researched and presented.

Good news! On Wednesday my stamp-collector nominee-recipient for my Stamp News subscription

I'd like to nominate Allanswood for this thread:

The Australia Post "Chapman" Collection of Australian Stamps, all the Pages.
https://www.stampboards.com/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=91707

Sure the information is available to all of us elsewhere, but unless one fiddles around the images are next to useless for any study. Allanswood's thread saves us all time and bother.

Hello Everyone,

We have about a week left in August, can we please get a few more nominations?

Thank you Stuart and satsuma for your August nominations!

Thanks AMark for your regular promprings on this thread
— they definitely help to keep it active and relevant

AMark · Post by **AMark** » 16 Sep 2020 09:59

I have not nominated a member for quite some time, but this recent thread deserves to be nominated for the September prize.

I would like to nominate:

KevinHedley and his wonderful tour of Australia along the Princess Highway thread.

A philatelic trip along the Princes Highway

It's a treat to read about places in Australia and see them in this thread, for me and or those that have never been to Australia before. A fantastic thread filled with philatelic reference that is a must read for all.

Ubobo.R.O. · Post by **Ubobo.R.O.** » 16 Sep 2020 10:01

The Puffin would like to second that nomination.

Waffle · Post by **Waffle** » 16 Sep 2020 11:59

If it is permissible, Waffle would like to third that nomination. An excellent road trip. I am looking forward to when he arrives in Traralgon, where we spent our first 8m years in Australia.
