You know, one of the really cool things about receiving an AMSAT award in the mail is the certificate inside. However, what is even cooler is the envelope. Yes, the envelope. My wife has purchased stamps for years and years. I use those stamps on the envelopes I mail. None of those little white labels from the post office. Some stamps are from the 70's, 80's and 90's. She is still purchasing so when the older ones are gone which should be in about 5 years or more, I will be starting on newer ones from the 2000's.

Today's mailing included 32 cent stamps featuring the roaring 20's which came out in 1995, 1996, 1997 time frame.

Is it time for you to apply for an AMSAT award or to add to your stamp collection :-)
