Don't you just wish they still released them in plastic?? Now you gotta make sure they're not all grubby yerself and be extra super careful. *rollseyes*

And of course this full set (only one shown here, but there's one for each major Australian city in the set)...

I got heeeeeeeeeeaaaappps more, but these are a few I've catalogued in recent days and have at my fingertips. All mint condition. I have a bunch of older envelopes too but I don't think from memory that they're FDORE's. I think they're just random envelopes and I couldn't bring myself to steam them off because the envelopes were like 100 years old or something. Hahaha. Not quite, but about 60 or 70 years I think. Where ARE those envelopes come to think of it... must be around here somewhere... I'll get to them....

K that's my first share. I got a lot more I'd like to share.
I'm scanning and uploading my entire collection online, which you can view at the link in my signature... I'm almost finished the first of many albums... many, many, MANY albums. Once they're all uploaded I'll begin classifying and identifying and valuing them which is something I've never done before in the 20+ years I've been collecting. That's why I've joined here... to begin gathering information on the value of these things and filling in missing sets and the like. All these years it's been just randomly collecting with no clear goals or motivation. Wow I just realised the last set is 28 years old, and I consider it a "recent" addition. That's funny.
