RICH

When I was a kid, I collected stamps before I collected BB cards. And, this 1856 British
Guiana stamp was well known to all us stamp collectors back then. I still have my 1950
Scott's Stamp Catalogue and in it, this stamp was valued at $50,000. And, 50K was an
awful lot of money back then.

This stamp is the "T206 Honus Wagner" of the worldwide stamp collecting hobby, back
then, and still now. Of course, now it is worth in the millions of $$.

But, I would rather have the 24-cent Inverted Jenny US Air Mail stamp.
