50 states postal stamp donations now welcome

Hi all
As anticipated it is very difficult to get stamps from each state - I have piles of lists For people I have contacted in different states some have turned out great and others can't do it - no big deal :-)
I'm reaching out to everyone on this board first to see if anyone would like to donate a stamp for a state not in the below list but here's the catch

The reason for this postal is to have a stamp from each state coming from each state , therefore my first option would be ;

  • Someone from that state donates a stamp (joining the postal is optional)

  • someone who donates a stamp has lived in that state previously ( joining the postal is optional )
For those who have previously lived in the state I would like for the stamp to physically come from that state So you would have to agree to mail it to someone in the state and then have them mail it to me

  • carve a stamp for a state and mail it to someone you know in that state and have them mail it to me

I know the whole mailing the stamp to someone in the state is a far out idea so I realize this won't be for everyone but there are some people who may be willing to do this -

I do have emails out to several people from several states And am waiting to hear back from several of them , so for now the following list is a list of states that are TAKEN and I do not need stamps from those states

I appreciate everyone taking the time to read this email and considering this I know the 50 states postal's are very difficult to do and it takes a village to make it work :-)

New Hampshire
Vermont
Wisconsin
Florida
Colorado
Ohio
Michigan
Maryland
Pennsylvania
Nevada
Hawaii
Connecticut
Massachusetts
Kentucky
New York
West Virginia
Alaska
Oregon
Arizona
California
Maine
Louisiana
North Carolina

I'm taking donations for all of the other States

A stamp 3x3 or less of your choice as long as it represents the state in some way

Also does anyone know how I can edit a post? I've gotten a few more states And would just like to add them to my original post so I don't keep cluttering up the boards

After 5 minutes you can no longer edit a post.
