Synopsis
One of our best selling and oldest titles, this catalogue provides collectors with a complete listing of stamps of the Commonwealth and British Empire from 1840-1952. This is the 109th edition of our hugely popular "Commonwealth and British Empire Stamps" catalogue and features extensive price revision and a significant increase in the use of colour. We have added numerous new illustrations, including those that were taken out many years ago to conserve space. On top of this, we are currently undertaking the task of converting as many of the old black and white illustrations into full colour. Inverted/Reversed watermark collectors will be delighted as we have been able to add over 60 new varieties of inverted and reversed watermarks. There are also notable revisions for New Guinea, Ceylon, Gibraltar, Aden, Australia, Bechuanalands, Cameroon, Fiji, Hong Kong, Iraq, Malaya, New Zealand, Niger Protectorate, North Borneo, Labuan, Sudan and Togo.
