Kyle’s Stamps has been transferring lots of stamps into his Mystic albums and has unfortunately damaged a few. He was looking into a better way to unhinge stamps from albums other than pulling them off the pages by the hinge.
Some people use “stamp lift fluid” on the stamps after removing the pages from the album. That does seem to work, but, he had an epiphany that he might be able to slip his exacto knife under the stamps and just slice the hinge.
It has worked well for him so far. He’s only done a small amount of research into unhinging stamps from albums so there could very well be a better method out there for sure, but this is so easy that he wanted to share.
He was having to pull way harder than expected to get stamps out of this particular album. He had to squeeze the tongs so hard to get a good enough grip of the hinge that he felt he might bend his tongs. It all just felt wrong and so this is what he came up with for now.
