It was actually gifted to me by a friend (hi Linda) because it had an article in it related to T206 back stamps. I was thrilled to get it and read the article. It even pictured several card images that I have featured in my Great T206 Back Stamp Project including one of my very own cards.
I was a little surprised my project wasn't mentioned in the article at all, but that's not a big deal. I was just happy that back stamps were getting recognition. The article focused on a few specific stamps like the F Scott Fitzgerald stamps, Jefferson Burdick, Date stamps, and quite a bit of focus on the Howe McCormick collection of Ed McCullum. That collection is amazing and I've very happy it was featured in the article.
Then as I read more articles in the magazine, I started reading about the 1912 T207 set and noticed something. The article was written by our friend Anson Whaley. Nice article Anson. Gave me more appreciation for the set that I didn't really have before.
So if you get a chance to pick up the issue, here is an image of it for reference. I would recommend it.
Enjoy the hobby all...it's a great one.
