Well well wahcow. You probably know this already but Madrid has LOADS of old stamps and coins on the Plaza Mayor on... when(?) .. Sunday mornings (?? someone correct me, please) and El Rastro in/around the Lavapies neighborhood on Sunday mornings is where you'll like lots of junk.. errr.. I mean.. ANTIQUES. heehe.. wink "Beauty IS in the eye of the beholder", eh? El Rastro is more FLEA market than Antique shops but hopefully you'll find more antiques than fleas. hehehe.. laugh

Best of luck! Saludos, MadridMan

Our very modest boardmember, Barry, also has an antique shop on Calle Huertas. I don´t know if he sells stamps there, but it sure looked nice from the outside.

Barry, were your ears ringing on Friday night? PIM and I checked out your store from the outside with Jo while we were out to dinner! It´s been awhile since I last saw you!! wink
