;) | BRITISH GUIANA TEXT DESCRIPTIONS OF PRE-STAMP AND ADHESIVE COVERS (1,671) 1783-1900. Price £850 Should we feel sorry for the recent buyer at the Spink Simon Greenwood auction who spent £6,000+ on three bogus bisect covers? Having this pdf would have saved him a lot of money! British Guiana, in my opinion, has climbed to the top of the league table in popularity amongst the British Caribbean group, and there are so many reasons why. Perfect for exhibition in so many areas, but I leave that up to you, as you are either interested, or not interested. This is also a very active "work-in-progress" file (meaning that I am constantly adding information). You can now order and pay for your own DIGITAL pdf copy (no refunds, but you are entitled to TWO free updates as and when requested). This pdf has descriptions of 1,671 entires arranged in chronological sequence which includes amazing variety inter-mingled with social history, provenance, dates of shipping disasters etc. Price £850 (no discounts to either trade or collectors as packed with information) payable by PayPal or WISE transfer (ignore Barclays mention at check out as account now closed, and I cannot change, this web shop 22 years old). Once you have this pdf you will be miles ahead of other BRG collectors in knowing both the pitfalls and exactly where to focus your buying. £850 |
