Ever since Hartx6, Pitties, and I planned this Series, I have been dying to ask what is the largest series, all in a row, from box to box??? Is there a way to search for that?

thanks!

Cape Cod has an older 50 state series as well. We were able to get most of those plus The Connecticut series. The CT series is more spread out(individual trails) ;Cape Cod 4 or 5 per trail.

Someone else was planning a 50 box state series but I don't remember where it was, who was planning it, or if it was ever completed.

I am currently in the middle of planning/executing the "Hello From The United States!" series. I have been fortunate enough to find willing carvers from 45 of the 50 states so far, and also was able to add a bonus "Hello From New Zealand!" stamp. :) I've received almost 30 of them so far (with more on the way), and plan to get them planted in June for Rocky Mountain Plant A Box Month.

Not sure when exactly it will be *completely* completed, as I have states that I can't find carvers in (Arkansas, Mississippi, North and South Dakota, Hawaii). Eventually I hope to finish it! :) And if I can find carvers who live in DC or any of the Territories, I'd love to add their stamps to it, too. :)

douggerware?

It's a mid-Atlantic thang....

Back in the day in our neck of the woods, Silent Doug used to plant in the Milan Classic containers that you could get at the dollar store.... so they got the nickname "douggerware."
The little black/green decon containers came to be called "posseware" (for the Crayola Posse) in much the same way.
