Question 5
Which statement is NOT the way you should store stamps?
| Store stamps upright in rows. | |
| Store your stamps lying down flat with the smaller stamps on top of the larger stamps. | |
| Store your stamps in a warm place in direct sunshine. | |

If you store stamps in direct sunlight the rubber can degrade and become "hard" and won´t pick up ink properly.
