The philatelic world has lost a giant, we mourn the death of Bob Dumaine. Bob loved everything about stamps and stamp collecting.
His influence, creativity, and knowledge will be sorely missed. I especially remember his activity in 1992 to create standards
for Stamp Auction houses. We were just getting started writing auction software in 1990 and would create StampAuctionNetwork in 1994,
so that was all vivid in my memory. Read the full obituary (here).

Graham Beck, from the Youtube video channel, "Exploring Stamps"
does an amazing job introducing the next generation to Philately. His latest video looks at the United States "Cattle in the Storm" to ask the question... "Is this the most Beatiful U.S. Stamp"?
Let's show Graham some love and visit his site and take a listen.
In the video he mentions Canada's "Bluenose" as a contender for the most Beautiful stamp of all -- so in my video we will look at both stamps.
