;) | GREAT BRITAIN used with "A01" obliterator (184) at Kingston, JAMAICA (1858-1860). Price £60 You can now order and pay for your own DIGITAL copy by pdf (no refunds, but TWO free further updates can be had as and when requested). 184 covers, a study mostly in b/w, which makes its own statement due the lack of excitement attached to the many 6d packet rate covers to the UK.
