Stamp review 100 Greatest American Stamps
Stamp review, by John and Nancy Wilson, Ocala, FL of the, "100 Greatest American Stamps." The "100 Greatest American Stamps," written by Donald Sundman and Janet Klug, is a 144 page hard cover richly illustrated book showing what many people believe are the 100 most interesting American stamps. It covers a good cross-section of stamps from the 1918 inverted Jenny and the unique 1868 1 cent Z grill to the 1993 29 cent Elvis Presley stamp. Market values are given for the stamps from 1920 to present in both new and used condition. This chart allows the reader to review the historic change in the stamp's value. Following the top 100 are four pages of honorable mention stamps which include a 1st Issue Postage Currency Note. Additional historical information about the stamps and other artifacts associated with the stamps is given. Coins and paper money associated with the stamps are also shown and described. The coffee- table-size book appeals to both the dedicated stamps collector as well as people just casually familiar with stamps. The authors give tips on grading and educated buying in the current marketplace. The book retails for $29.95 online at www.whitmanbook.com and bookstores and hobby shops nationwide. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- See AOL's top rated recipes and easy ways to stay in shape for winter. |
