I collect used (inc. real and CTO-used) worldwide stamps from the era of 1840-2000 (and for some countries up to year 2010). The below datatable contains a simplified summary of my stamp collection containing over 57,000 different worldwide items. On the right side you will see a list of latest additions / changes to my collection.
As a generalization, the collection is roughly 10% complete (meaning it still needs “humble” 550,000 different additions to make it complete up to date). But if all goes well I have 50 years of time to complete my goal 
Please note that this table is a work-in-progress (= it may contain inaccurate data, have missing countries/areas especially with local issues etc)… In total the table below lists about 1,000 entities that have (or still) issued postage stamps.

What an amazing collection. Which Katanga and Uganda stamps do you have.The reason I ask is that i am currently in Uganda and have come across several Uganda stamps and a few Katanga stamps
regards
Thanks Frederick,
You make me blush… Compared to w/w collections having 300-400,00 different stamps I feel my collection is peanuts. But I’m having lots of fun accumulating it with pocket money budget
As for Uganda, the 28 stamps I have are mainly from the first (1962 Independence) or third (flowers) definitives issue; the latter being CTO-cancelled mostly. And few truly used butterfly defins (from the 1980’s)… So I’ve got plenty of spaces to fill.
As for Katanga, the only used stamp I have is 10c green “traditional arts” issued in 1961… I’ve seen quite a lot of mint Katanga several times, but used copies (with real or CTO cancel) seem to be very hard to come by.

Nagwa
Hi Nagwa,
As said on my public stamp exchange page, I offer unsorted worldwide. I don’t do specific countries or want lists in this exchange as I like to keep things simple, open and fun for everyone willing to exchange… In return I try to sent a wealthy mixture of countries around the world.

hi keijo
i really like your idea of exchanging and collecting stamps.
i just wanted to ask if it is ok to send stamps from india and oman?
sophia
Hello Sophia,
and thank You… India, Oman etc. stamps from Asia and Middle-East are highly welcomed

Hi Keijo,
I commend you on the task that you have undertaken but may I offer up some of my thoughts on this:
I too started collecting worldwide when I was a little boy (I am now 50 yrs old). You get to a point where, after collecting for many years, you find that it is much more satisfying to have a small but complete collection rather than a huge collection that really does not tell a story. A case of quantity with no quality. Besides this is a mission that is bound to never be fulfilled since it requires very deep pockets to accomplish. My advice (for what it’s worth) would be to cut down on the scope and go for a smaller scale. In time you will experience the joy of seeing your complete collection. I specialise in only 2 countries and I am proud to say that of one of them, I have ALMOST every stamp issued (except 2) and the other country is about 97% complete. They look beautiful mounted in albums.
Please do not take this the wrong way. I wish you well in your quest. Regards
Hi Wilf,
and thanks for sharing some words of experience. I’ve collected stamps “only” 27 years but I think (/hope) that I’ve still got a lot to learn
Anyway… Personally I think that worldwide collecting and specializing (single country collecting, thematics or postal history) are not exclusive to each other. That’s what the collectors of the “golden era” did, and that’s what I do as well. And I’m enjoying it very much.
Completion is a goal, but I’m not taking it too seriously as most (specialized) collectors never manage in completing their more focused collections neither. Having fun while collecting is the most important aspect for me, everything else comes second place.

Hello, my name is Phil..i am a life member APS and member since 1998 of The International Society of Guatemala collectors..i collect worldwide to 1969 in Scott International albums..i have accumulated tubs of stamps many of which 1970-to present are too new for me and i would gladly swap..i could certainly help with a couple of hundred different Guatemala…i constantly go through my stockbooks,boxes etc and still “buy” from myself..i would not mind swapping stamps with another collector..i consider myself an “intermediate” collector..Thank you !!
Keijo, your bookcase of stockbooks looks too organized for me..and the lists of which stamps you have !! i must enjoy looking upstairs and downstairs when i want a particular book or box of stamps !!! phil
Hi Phil,
please see my public stamp exchange offerfor guidelines I’m interested in exchanging.
However, I need to highlight that of the guidelines in my public exchange offer is “no wantlists” – and I fear that Your need/want for pre-1970’s stamps qualifies as such. What I offer in this exchange is unsorted worldwide – both new and old. So you may end up having something that doesn’t match your needs at all.
best,
-keijo-
Thanks Phil.
Actually the lines look even even these days as I’ve started placing “country labels” on the spines of stock books.
As for my “lists”… Let’s just say they are a labor of love that I’ve built upon years. I know they (may) hold minor inaccuracies/ erratas, but I will fix them someday when I have the time
Just see that Your collection is growing well – and that plenty of time need to be used in managing this blog pages. Between all I see that #1 postally used are really hard to find, between all I have one sample from Russia #1 (scan I can send You) and when is talking in Serbia, Yugoslavia and all ex-Yugoslavia countries, there I also have some interesting postally used cover.
best regards
Milco
Hi Mico,
I agree it’s growing quite well
Personally I’m not really worried about the “difficult items” (or #1’s) – they either come or not at some point. And as I’m quite young for a stamp collector, I have lots of time on my side.
