Default Scott v Gibbons

A real price list (US) would be Brookman, for the UK ???


The Stoneham catalogue, recently republished, purports to show market
prices and lists the dealers that have contributed info and knowledge.

Stoneham retails at £16 compared with £24 for SG's Concise, and has
actual new scans of all the stamps, including all the Machins so that
colours can be seen. The numbering is different, of course, and the
organisation of the catalogue takes some getting used to, but it is a
good cat. One dealer I know has sold 3 boxes at fairs, that's about 60
copies.
