Recent additions to our online shop.

I'll be posting brief notes about additional items for sale added to our website roughly once a week, as I know that not everybody has time to look everywhere.

The most recent additions have been:

GB: Folded Booklets - back in time to the machine-vended 50p £1 etc booklets.  Not many of any of these, and some have already been snapped up.


Independent Africa postal history - these aren't mainstream but some people are starting to look at post-independent French and British Africa.  Some of these stamps aren't listed in principal catalogues simply because some stamps have never been seen. Some here from Ghana, Benin, Senegal and Malagasy Republic, with more to come.

Benin surcharges 1994.
 

GB Security Machin 2nd class coils used - although these have been generally available mint their availability used has in many cases been confined to direct mail shots within the UK.  Thus they are only seen by overseas collectors in kiloware, and that is not as plentiful as it was (nor as cheap!).  Here are a few of the 2009, 2012 & 2015 versions.


GB 2nd class Datamatrix barcode - now available mint and used on the first day.

GB odds and ends Machin and other - including a used pair of 26p rosine Type II.  Also the Milennium Fire & Light set with altered (and unaltered) date of issue in the sheet margin.

  1. Unbelievable but true the Sir Paul McCartney issue is over £40! maybe a time for a rethink on commemorative issues, with the rising costs of stamps
