Yes I do have a stockbook of Germany around the place SOMEWHERE
As their neat little stamp den experiences no such issues, and such answers from me seem incomprehensible. 8)
So based on some incredulity in another thread where I showed just ONE photo of my patented® filing system, here is some more background.
I live in a very large 3 storey home, overlooking the Harbour with 180 degree water views.
From top to bottom it is a metre or two deep in stamp boxes, and cartons and paperwork and junk.
On stairwells, in hallways, and covering every surface of the kitchen dining rooms, lounge rooms and bedrooms, even top of the washing machine.
A few random photos I took below will convey the message a little more clearly!
The massive garage is also stacked high with shelves and cartons, but I was too lazy to go down the 40 stairs to take pix of that.
So look carefully at these photos and when I say your little black stock-card or Hagner sheet or letter is misplaced - trust me - it IS.
So c'mon .. I can't be alone - who also here has a slightly less than Library Of Congress standard, neat, patented storage system like I do?

More "urgent" orders at my fingertips. "Almost to the top of my pile"
