60 Cent Bird Stamp

For a while I was very into collecting stamps. Dad would bring stamps home from work and we would soak them in water so they could be removed from the envelopes. I had a green album.
The one stamp I coveted the most was the 60 cent bird stamp - it was a rare find. Andrew McClure was the only person who had this stamp. For it I was willing to trade almost my wholecollection and almost did.http://www.bird-stamps.org/images/stamps/details/austra/0738038.jpg The bird is Australian King Parrot - aka Alisterus scapularis.
