As part of our continued conversation with our readers, we like to ask Linn's Stamp News Facebook fans to share stories about the philatelic acquisitions they've made recently.  

Here is a  recent purchase a fan told us about on Facebook:

Richard L. Beecher: "[The item pictured at right] arrived via eBay this weekend. I collect unusual usages of U.S. Transportation coils. This quartet of 5 cent Motorcycle stamps were loosely attached to a card supplied by Reader's Digest, to encourage the recipient to participate in a their sweepstakes."

What did you buy last weekend? Tell us in the comment section below!
