BACK PAGE – STAMP BOOKLETS

This month we list Booklets on Page 4.  It is only a portion of what we have in stock.  If you would like to receive our whole list, please ask.  It includes French Polynesia , New Caledonia , more New Zealand , and also Marshall Island and some Australia .

NEXT WARBLER

Normally a Warbler published in November is the last for the calendar year.  This year however, we had such a quiet time on the new issue front in the first half of the year and various philatelic bureaus are still trying to produce their normal number of issues.So there will be a December Warbler which we will try to mail by the 15th December.  It will contain 3 Norfolk Issues, Christmas Island plus those we don’t know about yet!

 

PRE-ORDERING VERSUS STANDING ORDERS

Collectors with special interests often read about issues coming up which they would want, in various publications and the temptation is to send us an email or a letter ordering those items without considering that their standing order would provide this item automatically.  As none of our staff knows everybody’s standing order, there is a distinct possibility of duplication, so please be patient when you hear about these goodies and wait until you read the next warbler and check your next standing order.
