Welcome to April Graves-Minton's Stamps For Sale!
Listed below are actual stamps in the photographs that are from my personal collection for sale or RARE AND REAL MUSEUM Preview to the public. Please note that I am selling some items from my private collection! Prices are subject to change until bidding begins and I may choose to end the bidding and delist the item without warning if my reserve price is not met!
Scroll down to the China stamp much further below and read about my stamps like this helped me establish the extremely high prices of other stamps. I may decide to sell many in my collection as a buy now purchase, but for now, I am merely emphasizing how many stamps have been sold that are not authentic at all. I am also giving visitors the opportunity to view stamps from my collection that they may have purchased from online or reputable sources that are fake compared to my collection.
The real stamps like mine are not sold out there that I can find. If they are, they are usually fake or private sales of old collections like mine. I thought that stamps were just plain paper stock cut-outs, however, what I found on research is that the majority of my stamps are actually woven paper and look exactly like woven cloth!! Wow! I have never even heard or seen stamps like these although the philatelic community are probably very familiar with them and know instantly whether mine are the real deal! Please use the contact form to email me the history of this process as your historical knowledge about them is interesting to me. Thank you!
Also, I understand that you may think that my reserve bid prices are extremely high, but many of these items shown on my sales pages are museum quality. Therefore, I think that if you cannot buy them at the prices listed, then you may at least look at them on my websites or museum when it opens in the future!
If you wish to purchase stamp stock photos on canvas, please refer to the home page for terms and pricing guidelines for April Graves-Minton's Photographic Art Studio.
I do not guarantee authenticity of these stamps listed but rely on your expertise determining their value. However, I must stress here that I acquired these stamps from a Stamp Traveler Album that I bought at a flea market many years ago! The old rare stamps I found in the back of the binder in old cellophane stamp envelopes! They are authentic because the man cancelled these stamps as he traveled the world, and it is easy to see the difference between these real stamps and those you may have seen or bought on another platform. If you will care to notice, many of my stamps have almost perfect selvage and are very clean.
Most of my collection of stamps found on any page on this website come from either this travel album or from my own original purchases. If you have any questions about their authenticity, you can research yourself and examine those offered elsewhere verses my offerings here or contact a professional service to authenticate. I do not list every stamp with their tag or ID mark because I have found that some appraisers have authenticated fake stamps. Real collectors, like me, do not really care about what number or series of stamp. I just like the stamp if it is original.
I have looked at the most famous seller site and have seen similar stamps to mine for one dollar or less, but they do not look authentic to me. Most do not show the back of the stamp at all. You be the judge. All stamps are sold as-is condition and you must make your request via my contact form located at the bottom of this or other pages on this site. Please send your request for item number and title and your bid for that item using English only.
For most of my collection stamps that are Rare and Real, you must schedule a meeting at my choice of bank with law enforcement in attendance to exchange my bank-secured item stamp for your bid amount for that item!! Any surrogate or in-country representative of yours will be thoroughly vetted before any exchange occurs. This security service may be included in the price after the sale!
If from a non-U.S. country, it may take a little longer to process your payment with my bank verifying your identity and authentic transferred currency. If you request secured anonymous transportation for your purchase, I can arrange to send your item to you using my known secret transportation services.
Any purchase must cover all shipping and handling charges, so the final price may reflect what it costs me to securely package and ship your item. Send your name, address, phone number, email, bid amount per item, and any other request. I will inform you using your email if the item is active, pending, or sold.
All purchases are by bank check, money order, or wire transfer and must clear my bank within ten to fourteen business days before I send your item via USPS (United States Postal Service). If you wish to remain an anonymous buyer, you may use an in-country purchaser to facilitate payment and transfer of your item. You must inform me of the name, address, etc. of the transfer individual or company before I accept any payment from them in your stead or relinquish my item to them. I do not ever share my client information. Privacy is of utmost importance to me. You must request certified mail if you prefer for items under the insured postal price, and all shipping and handling are included in the final price.
You may verify authenticity using your own antiques appraiser to view the item before purchasing. This is my private collection and is not affiliated in any way with my company or websites! All sales are final! Buy at your own risk!
I may have several pages of stamps with links to each page, but everything is put on my website in random order. I do not have time to deep research these at the moment and am merely making them available for sale or museum previews to the public. Also, I wonder if I can even rely on any appraiser out there to actually know the difference between my real stamps and the fake ones I see online. You see, the internet search engine cannot find any of these real stamps for sale or recently sold as I did research as much as I could determining their worth. What I did find shocked me as I compared them to my real stamps and found that all other stamps shown online for sale or most even on display are Fake!!! I am sure that there are collectors or owners of real stamps out there, but honestly, I did not find any during my research of my very real priceless stamps! You just take a good look at my quality stamps and decide for yourself! When corresponding, please include the item number, title, and amount of bid or request along with your personal info for immediate consideration for buy now by email to Info.
Photographs of my stamps may be purchased as canvas art for $500.00 U.S. Dollars or more each. Prices below reflect the fact that many of these stamps are out of circulation and unavailable for purchase unless dealing with a huge auction house or platform. This is my auction platform and website selling my rare and real personal collection of stamps and/or photographs of them if you choose.
Please be patient as it may take a little time to process your email but someone, actual person via email or phone, will get back to you as soon as possible. No AI is used for this platform! Scroll down to view various stamps from my collection. Thank you for visiting and come back soon for updates!
Notice: All prices are subject to change without notice and immediate accepted Buy Now offers to me will terminate any bidding procedures after I receive buyer's funds! I will give notice of pending buy now or the end of any items for sale on my websites. Bidding may last one month or may last up to a year!
When I receive bids, I will post the current bid for that week beside each item number so that buyers may re-bid if they so choose. Some bid procedures may take up to a year to complete the process as I want to be sure that word gets around allowing as many actual bidders as possible the opportunity to win the bid! I will post pending end to bid beside each current bid to let everyone know that the bidding process is almost complete or over. Happy bidding!

This stamp is the first on my stamps page because it is very famous. It is not pictured in my 1972 Traveler Stamp Album, but others like it are. I have searched for information about this stamp and have found that it is only fake ones that are being sold on eBay or on websites that sell stock photos of the stamp. The search engine ChatGPT did not have any other information on where to find it worldwide! Of course, I took a web-shot of the eBay stamp and, you guessed it, it is fake! No backside is shown, and it is fuzzy, to say the least.
For many true collectors out there, I just want to say that I am NOT an appraiser; however, I know this stamp is the real deal because of its history with me! I have had it in my possession for many years and to tell the truth am very reluctant to give it up. The woven paper these stamps were printed on is your clue to their high value and investment quality. I know that somewhere out there is someone who loves it just as much as I do and would jump at the chance to own a rare and real one. Please consult with your appraiser and have them take a closer look. If you have any questions, please use my contact form for requests and I will do my best to get back to you as soon as possible. Thank you for visiting!

I have below listed other countries various stamps that I may offer soon for sale or have as museum previews. All are very rare and real original issued stamps. Descriptions are as accurate as I can make them and some have crappy envelope stuck to the surface as they were in the envelope together for some time, evidently. My personal research of these stamps may be limited but it is still very easy to see that these are all real stamps verses the fake ones you may have bought or see online. Reserve Bid Procedure Starting Prices are what I value my stamps from my private collection. My evidence and analysis of our collectibles like stamps, coins, and other valuable items is that the thieves have stolen and possibly crapped or just made stock fake items of all kinds of valuable things and are selling them for pennies on the dollar as the real deal! I hate you and I hope you all go to hell you thieves!
