Lawrence Block Quote
Regummed. A regummed stamp is one which has lost its original gum somewhere along the way, only to have it replaced with new gum. When the equivalent is performed on, say, a Rembrandt oil painting, we call it restoration; when such restoration is performed on a postage stamp, we’re more apt to regard it as a crime against nature, and a clear-cut example of philatelic fraud.
