Gustamps helping stamp collectors understand philatelic terms

Gustamps explaining stamp terms.... today Gustamps describe strips.

Strips of stamps, say Gustamps, could be as little as three stamps joined in a row. Gustamps point out strips could be four stamps, five stamps, or as many as a dozen or more joined stamps. Gustamps add that with older scarcer stamps a large strip can greatly enhance the value of the stamps. For example, say Gustamps, a strip of four 1840 1d black stamps are much scarcer than four single 1d black stamps separated.
