The latest in the Scott Catalogue series, with well-photographed examples in very accurate tones and colors of almost every stamp design of the USA, including the Confederate States, US Possessions, the UN, and FDCs, etc. A frightful cover price, considering that it is pretty much a straight-forward reprint with a few additions, but there is no better reference work, and unless you can track down a lightly-used discount copy, or a clearance item from yet another failed bookstore, this is the best price you can get.There are numerous annexes and definitions sheets for references and fact-checking, classifying and indexing, but these are little changed from prior years.Stamps are as late as June 2012 - impressive for a print date of November 2012. Now that stamps are thrown on the market for the most part only in mini-sheets and booklets, an annual purchase of Scott's perhaps isn't really all that vital, as most of the recent issues can be looked up on the internet - except for the dedicated collector, of course. Or if your 2012 copy is as torn, folded, mutilated and spindled as ia mine.
and need a source for as much information as possible on the subject, this is the one to get. It has, in one book all the information you are likely find in one book.Some people don't like the pricing in it but there is honestly no way to really know the pricing on anything but it can only offer you a bit of a guideline to work from.
The Scott Specialized Catalogue of US Stamps & Covers is pure gold. No better resource exists for US stamps, and covers not only the stamp, but also special cancellations & colors that increase a pre-1900 used stamps value. A must have guide for US collectors.
The only comprehensive catalog of US stamps. A great buy, and an essential reference for serious collectors. All the details for identifying US and US-related stamps are contained in this book, which is well-written and well-illustrated with the features that distinguish one stamp from another.
Very pleased with the catalogue and especially the price. I will be using it to check stamp values for one of my neighbors who has been collecting First Day Covers for a very long time.
I've have much older Scott catalogs, all in black and white, I was VERY glad to have this one in color. Great book, easy to use, filled with lots of helpful information.
The "bible of stamp collecting. This book was in excellent condition.
Great!
