Just joined StampoRama and am asking the USA stamp community about the titled collection. I am trying to find out the list of countries this collection covered I have 59 so far and just want to know if this is a complete collection?
I list the countries I have so far here:
Aitutki, Angola, Antigua, Ascension Isl, Belize, Bermuda, BAT, BIOT, BVI
Burkino Faso, Cayman Isl, CAR, Cook Isl, Dominica, Falkland Isl, Fiji, Gambia
Ghana, Gibraltar, GB, Grenada, Grenada Grenadines, Guyana, Honduras, IOM
Jamaica, Kiribati, Lesotho, Liberia, Maldives, Marshall Isl, Micronesia, Mongolia
Montserrat, Namibia, Nevis, Niger, Niue, Palau, Penryhn, Pitcairn Isl, Samoa
Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Solomon Isl, Sth Georgia, St Helena, St Kitts, St Lucia
St Vincent, Tanzania, Togo, Tokelau, Tristan Da Cunha, Turkmenistan, Turks & Caicos
Tuvalu, Uganda, Vanuatu.
I am always interested in buying FDC of this collection or the PCS collection but I am only looking for selective covers, so I use Ebay as my purchasing platform.

Hi Ikey Pikey,
Yes paid a visit to your suggested web site. Once i know the Country Fleetwoods used I will know what stamps they have used so its not actually the stamps of the covers I am after.
What I need is either someone who has the collection or someone who knows who might have Fleetwoods knowledge about Fleetwoods as a whole.
But thanks for pointing me there.

Hi SheepShanks, thanks for those few posts
Now you see when I do a search in England for Fleetwoods I get nothing like what you have posted, one supposes its because I am in another country!
The Weeda site I am not sure what they are selling because I did not know that Fleetwoods sold stamp sheets, but I do know the Mystic Stamp company does so I think there maybe a bit of confusion there.
The other site you mentioned is exactly what I am looking for and indeed I have seen both on Ebay. The 2nd site in its listing only states it comprised of 55 covers so I know that is not a full set.
The problem with auction sites and more so Ebay is that the people who are selling are not of stamp or FDC knowledge and are just normal folk selling odd items. But if I dont find anyone from this forum with this type of knowledge I will just have to use EBay and keep searching. I have emailed some Associations in USA and hope they may have archives which will give me the info. A stamp museum may have this type information but again for me, its knowing them and finding them.
Thanks again for your help and interest.
