Thank you Dan; The photo is of me in 1957. In addition to the slides grandpa left me boxes of unsorted stamps. If you need anything please let me know.

..I was 10 in 1957 Frank! Slides..I took most of my photos to slides. Mistake!
I stared a stamp collection when I was very young. I still have that collection. Maybe I have a "hidden gem".?
Thanks!

Dan, my grandfather was the editor of the Journal American and he directed all the staff to save all the stamps. Do you have any idea how many international stamps I have?

Indeed Frank! I had one when I was a small kid. Loved it!
Do kids even play with trains anymore?
