WNS & UPU IB Circulars cannot be trusted by
Victor Manta
I tried to identify the status of some stamps offered on the Web, by using
the UPU Circulars related to illegal stamps and the WNS database. The
results were disappointing. My conclusions:
- The existing UPU Circulars, that either don't describe the stamps that
they denounce or describe them...

Tinkering with Art on Postal Stamps by
Victor Manta
One day in 1871 a model failed to appear, so the young James A. McNeill
Whistler turned to his mother and suggested that he do her portrait instead.
At first he had her stand, but that proved too tiring to her, and so the
famous seated pose was adopted.
The work of art traveled America in a...

GB Penny Red by
Sir F.A. Rien[_2_]
Has anyone knowledge of where I may obtain a scan of GB's Penny Red,
Die II, Plate 51, Positions KB and KC in State 2?
I have the Imprimatur Scan and a block from State 3.
Yes it's a tall order, but surely somewhere someone holds a pair or
block.
Thanks!

In a new article I publish an interview with the new leader of the WADP, and
then I present the results of a survey of illegal stamp issues, originated

Catalogue spezilized of Israel, BALE by
Droger Jean-Paul
Hello!
Does anyone use this catalogue I bought one year ago by VERA (2010
edition)!
I have a little problem to know wath currency is used with "values"
that are given!
Some times, for higher valued stamps, it is clearly printed: $ ** or
tab ** $ and I think it uses the US $!
