Introduction to the Empty Basket Series



You know how you just seem to accumulate a bunch of stamps from various occasions and they just sit around and do nothing but take up space. I have a basket that I dump them all into, the ex-postals, the ones that I carved because I just liked the clipart, the ones I planned on using for something but never did and frankly, I just need to get rid of them and use the space for new useless stamps.

And you know how some people who letterbox think that the stamp and logbook should represent the area where they are hidden? They won't hunt for a silly little stamp unless it is historic or they brag that a tourist could find all of the highpoints of their town just by following their letterboxes?  I am usually that person but I have reached the breaking point with the large amount of stamps that I have accumulated through the years.

I need to empty my basket so I am going to plant a series of stamps totally irrelevant to the area that they are in and those who are a bit particular are forewarned!
