Just cut or tear off the corner of the envelope with the stamp and get it to us. Or, if that's too much work, just get the
whole envelope to us and we will do the rest. Call Vivian Rifbjerg, at 650-366-6457, or E-mail her at vkgrandma@earthlink.net for information. Tubfrim was established in Nesbyen in 1928. Postmaster Ditlef Frantzen took the initiative to collect and sell used stamps.
