PB Stamps Penny Black Rubber Stamps Search Page

There are 3 ways to find a stamp and/or view stamps

on the next page you'll see 'input boxes'

Input data and click on SEARCH

(See sample KEYWORDS below)

I'll give a brief synopsis on each type of input:

By Stamp Name: Input all or any part of the stamp name (Example): by the tail - you'll get two stamps; 2373K Trail by the Tail & 2371F By the Tail. If you input CAT you get all stamps with cat in the name (Examples: 3634F Delicate ; 3442F Acrocat ; 2990K Catching the Stars ; 3496H Cat & Jack and more.........

By Keyword: This is extremely handy. Type in as many words as you want. The more words the fewer stamps you will see or maybe even no stamps will appear. For example; type snail painting hedgehog - you'll see just one stamp. Type in snail hedgehog and you'll see 7 stamps. Type just snail and you'll see 17 stamps. Want to see if there is a stamp with a girl playing soccer? Type in girl soccer and you see the only stamp Penny Black ever made with a girl playing soccer. Type just soccer and see what you get.

You can type the words in any order, ie: both girl soccer and soccer girl produce the same result. All inputs are NOT case sensitive - so you can type cat surfing or Cat SURFING and get the same results.

You can type in a year (ie: 2011) and see all of the stamps produced that year

You can type a stamp part number (Example: 1412D) and you'll get just one stamp to view. You can type in a partial number ( ie: 412) and you'll get all stamps with 412 in the part number (Example: 1412D - 2412E - 3412D & 412C

For fun type in Merry Christmas - you'll be amazed at how many stamps you'll see - and they are ALL Penny Black !!!

Go hog wild here -- there are hundreds of keywords (witches - peace - carrot - and on and on....)

Clicking ON SALE ITEMS will show all stamps that I have on sale at the moment.

About the output information: Listed will be the:

Stamp Number

Stamp Name

Stamp Size (size of the wood block) and the year the stamp appeared in a catalog.

My normal selling price

The quantity I currently have in stock - Should be fairly accurate. Don't worry if it is ZERO, I can order it for you - takes 8-10 days to get to me - and I might have it even if it says I don't. I get stamps in from Penny Black a couple of times a week! I update this data last thing every day.

The quantity I have on order with Penny Black - "Coming In"

And the STATUS (Please read this so you will know what this means)

Current with Decal - This means that Penny Black still makes this stamp and it will have the colored decal on the wood block

Stamped Image - This means that this stamp has been RETIRED by Penny Black but it is still available (only through me) and it WILL NOT have the colored decal on the wood block. Instead, it will have a black ink stamped image on the wood block

? - This means that I have never sold this stamp and therefore I am not certain if it will or will not have the decal.

If a stamp is currently ON SALE the sale price will be shown in RED

HINTS:

You don't have to click on the "Search" button, you can just hit your ENTER key on the keyboard after typing your search word(s)

For best results (most hits) don't input plurals if they are formed by adding 's' - use cat - not cats --

For plurals not formed by adding 's' try both the singular and the plural (not at the same time). ie: Lily and Lilies

When searching for Butterflies - just type BUTTER - that will get both butterflies and butterfly -- likewise use DRAGON for dragonflies. Get the idea?

Pictures shown may not be actual size. Moving your mouse over a picture will expand it to full size if it is actually larger. Because of different monitors the pictures you see still may not be accurately sized. Please note the actual size listed in the description. This works most of the time - not always ???

If you just type CHRISTMAS in the keywords box you will get over 400 stamps to view (same for FLOWERS). You can enter (for example) CHRISTMAS TREES to greatly reduce the number of stamps selected.

When searching by KEYWORDS; Basically speaking clicking a page number at the bottom of the pictures page will ALWAYS bring up the same list of pictures no matter when you click it. In other words; page #6 of CHRISTMAS will always be the same. So if you have to stop and fix dinner, close the program and come back later, just type in CHRISTMAS again then when the pictures appear go to the bottom of the page and click page #6 and you'll be where you left off. This will be true when I get done categorizing all of the stamps - almost true now!

You can only do one kind of search at a time

Newer stamps are shown on the HIGHER page numbers - with a few stragglers uh-ohs here & there.

All of the data has finally been entered. I hope you find this useful !!. Our next challenge is to get the pictures to behave. Putting your mouse cursor on a picture will enlarge it to a more life-like size/image. We have lots to do but remember, the actual size is listed in the description info (if we know it).

Let me know if you find errors...or have suggestions/comments. Thanks !
