New uncut press sheet coming

I have heard from several sources that there will be a new uncut press sheet released this year from the philatelic service. I have had it confirmed from the philatelic service that it will be for the Children's Games mini sheets, and details will be released "very soon". As soon as I hear more, I will let you know. The first sheet sold out quickly, and people were selling pieces of the sheet on E-bay for astronomical prices. I don't think many of these sold, and my offer to trade my full sheet for a set of 7-9 with tabs has had no takers (but, is still open if anyone should want to trade). It will be interesting to see what happens with this sheet.

I am looking to purchase Israel tab block album pages. Do you know where I can find them. Thanks

Minkus has a Tab block album. I use Potomac Supplies for most of my supply needs. http://www.mdstamp.com/index.php?main_page=advanced_search_result&search_in_description=1&zenid=e8224d00a399af7b16b60dc7506ee7b3&keyword=israel+tab+block

Hi Adam,

I got my order form in the mail yesterday and sent it off via fax (one per subscriber). It is the Children's Games issue as you stated. The photo on the form makes it look like the three original sheet designs are printed in a repeated array of several (4 or 5?) by 3 designs deep. It looks like a handsome item, but we'll have to see. At any rate, the spinoffs should be hitting eBay shortly, if not already. I sincerely hope folks do not fall for this scam. First day covers of imperfs, indeed.

Best regards from Mountain View,
