[Dx-qsl] best way to save postage stamps

Tue May 11 13:38:36 EDT 2004

Sorry for the off topic.
I don't REALLY collect stamps but I'm saving all the return Air Mail envelopes with
foreign stamps as maybe my grandchildren will get the bug.
I use a letter opener to slit the top of the envelope.
Is this the best way, does the envelope have any value or just the stamp.
If a envelope like this one from Iceland just has a machine stamped postage, should it be
saved also?
I've got a couple thousand old envelopes with stamps still on them.
Is this the best way to save them?
