The weak pound means a substantial increase in the UK cover price. It is still illustrated in black and white throughout. As usual it lists all the postage stamps, miniature sheets, dues, officials, telegraphs, pre-cancels, booklets etc with a useful design index. Prices are also given for FDCs. Postal stationery includes cards, commemorative issues, maxi-cards, etc. There is a section devoted to airmails including stamps, first flights, zeppelins etc. Current postal rates are also given. An integral perforation gauge is provided. Reflecting its main market the catalogue is bi-lingual in French and German and the numbers of both Michel and Yvert catalogues are given for each stamp. A true pocket-sized volume, despite now having 538pp. |
