Frederick Highland's 'StampWhys' series made its first appearance in Linn's Stamp News in 1999. Since then the monthly offering has grown to a collection of over seventy five articles.
The series is both playful and educational --not that they are mutually exclusive! Philatelic StampWhys quizzes are designed to illustrate some aspect of the stamp collecting hobby. Topical StampWhys, on the other hand, challenge the reader to identify an odd or unusual and often humorous stamp image.
The Mystery Box web site will eventually be home to all of them, and now includes two sets (twelve quizzes). See how you fare with this set of quizzes.
Topical StampWhys from China and Czechoslovakia [Go]
Philatelic Stampwhys from Egypt, Haiti, "The General Government", and Guatemala

Murder in the Maldives has been transformed from its original classical short story format into a "You-Solve-It" where, should you wish, you have the opportunity to pose the solution to the mystery. Take the challenge, or simply jump to the hints and solution as time and desire pull you - you choose! |
| Night Falls on Damascus, Frederick Highland's newest mystery novel, holds up a mirror to the continuing puzzle of the Middle East as it weaves a rich and engrossing tale of murder, revenge, and the corruption of power. Discover Nicolai Faroun's Damascus through five fascinating articles by Frederick Highland. |
