The titles that I am offering below are for the most part single subject articles from philatelic periodicals published many years ago. Some are the original pages removed from the publication, but the vast majority are photocopies.
The photocopies are quite good in regards to the text and line drawings. However, as some halftone illustrations in older publications weren’t very good to begin with, photocopies may be of poor quality.
The articles are listed by Item Number, Title and/or Description, Author, Year Published, Number of Pages, Price.
Please order by Item Number and Title. Add $1.50 per order (not per item) for shipping on orders under $10. Add $2.50 for insured shipping on orders over $10. International orders please ask for shipping cost before sending payment.
