Below are the recent purchases and discoveries our fans told us about on Facebook along with the reasoning behind the buys and finds:

Katie Schlilaty: "Two Frida Kahlo sheets!"
Jack Holloway: "I purchased another Penny Black with my initials (JH) on the bottom. I have a small collection of Penny Blacks, Two Penny Blues, and other early GB with my initials on the bottom."
