i picked this stamp collection up yesterday. i know NOTHING about stamp collecting, but these were kind of pretty. there are some pretty old american stamps amongst them too. lots of 1, 2 and 3 cent stamps from about 1900 onwards. there's also many, many stamps from many different countries commemorating various olympics. there's also some fairly early airmail and special delivery stamps. any value to any of these?

Always some value with stamps, I know a little about them , but nit enough to help you out. Unless there is the Special Delivery" stamps with a Harley-Davidson and Delivery Man on them. There are several colors and demonination of these and two issue date, but can draw a premium price.
thank you ar8jason and kerry10456! sounds like a lot of bother to take them out of the book. i like the colors and some wonderful graphics. lots of the stamps are from places like mongolia, chad, ivory coast, etc...
