Mint Sheets by Don

Aussie Officials by Graham Gilbert
I have a few of these (Perfin OS) and unfortunately Scott does not provide any information. Is there somewhere on the Internet that this information can be located? I'm not worried so much about value - simply how many issues there were so I can make pages properly with space for all. TIA

Peru Query by Rodney
I am about to lightly soak some early Peru of gunk and part hinges. With regards to the embossed "grille" issues, do the members think pressing will likely damage them? anybody have experience with these? I guess same goes for the early Portuguese embossed busts while I am at it. Thanks.
