RECENT SPORTS STAMPS NOT LISTED IN "SCOTT"
- Jim Hughes - This is a supplement to the article in the July, 1963, issue of SPI's "Journal of Sports Philately" covering the 1962 non-"Scott" sports stamps. No doubt some of these, particularly the issues of Paraguay, may still slip into "Scott". We are including them here only for the record that they do exist, leaving it up to the individual collector whether he wants to procure them for his collection. Issues from Red China, Cuba, North Korea, and North Viet Nam cannot be imported into the United States under present regula tions.

PHILATELIC MARKET REPORT - Fred Farr - Tip of the month—Russia C76-076D. In 1938 Russia issued a set of nine values to honor both the 21st anniversary of the Soviet Air Force as well as the achievements of Soviet aviators which were listed by the International Air Federation. On August 18, 1939, five values of that set were overprinted to commemorate Soviet Aviation Day. All five of these overprinted stamps are sports topicals and are so listed in Ira Seebacher's "Handbook of Sports Stamps". This set is extremely elusive and the overprints may have caused you to overlook the sporting significance of the basic stamps. Let's hope not! Dealers who still have a sup ply of these stamps ask a modest $2.50 per set, although dealers In Paris get $4.00 for the same set. New York wholesalers get $3-50, which is a dollar more than current retail prices! I can't help but note that the "Michel" catalogue lists a mint set for $15.00, so that $2.50 retail price in the TJ. S. is a real gift! If you still need this set in your collection, you'd better get your set now while you can still afford it. Finland B31-3. You are correct if you remember that this set was listed here less than one year ago. However, an Increase in the wholesale price makes it Imperative for me to alert you to the ever-increasing nature of this set's price structure. Issued in 1938 to honor the FIS ski championships held at Lahti, this set features both attractive colors and dynamic sports designs. Best of all, the small quantity of 200,000 sets has been long since absorbed by stamp collectors in the 28-year interim since this set was issued. Wholesale stocks are virtually non-existent. Retail dealers In the United States are still asking approximately $3.00 for this set, although the latest quotation by New York wholesalers Is $5-25 per set. The "Michel" catalogue, incidentally, lists this set for approximately fifty per cent more than "Scott". .Anyway, the handwriting is on the wall; so you may buy or not depending on whether you would prefer to pay higher prices next year. Norway B50-2. Here is one country which does not try to milk the stamp collector, as does Ghana, Paraguay, Sharjah, and all the other philatelic garbage pails! All Norwegian stamps are solid values and this set is no exception. In 1952 Norway was the host nation for the Winter Olympic Games, held at Oslo. As is true of all Norwegian stamps issued to honor worthy events, the face value of this set was very modest, being less than 20(2. Quantities issued were also modest, being exactly 466,364 complete sets. At long last this set is finally beginning to come into its own, with American retailers asking $1.75 (approximately ten times face value) and Parisian dealers asking $1.80. Interestingly enough, New York wholesalers get $1.90 for this set, so you can be sure that the retail price in the United States must soon Jump upward by approximately $1.00 or so. I do not foresee any skyrocketing in the price of this set, but I do foresee a steady annual in crease . Turkey 1160-62. Soccer, called "football" in other nations, is the great sport throughout the world, with the exception of the United States. It should be obvious, therefore, that stamp collectors throughout the world should seek those stamps depicting soccer. Here is a set made to order for all soccer lovers as well as for all sports phi latelists. Issued in 1955 to honor the International Military Soccer Championships, held at Istanbul in August of 1955- Some 100,000 sets were issued, which was the standard for all Turkish commemorative sets during the mid-1950s. Retail dealers in the United States, Great Britain, and France all ask approximately $1.75 for this set. New York wholesalers, however, get $2.50 for this same set—allowing the retailer a fifty per cent mark-up; this means that the retail price in the United States must inevitably Jump upward by some $2.00 when these retailers need to replenish their supplies. Fool the dealer; buy your set now before you have to pay the much higher future price! Yes, this set is still freely available for $1.75, but I wouldn't bank on paying that same price in another year or so. Lebanon C200-06. Have you ever noticed Uhat the number of airmail stamps issued by Lebanon is approximately equal to the number of ordinary stamps she has issued? There is PHILATELIC MARKET REPORT (Cont'd) a reason for this; over half of all the Lebanese people live and work In other nations, hence the Lebanese at home use a vast amount of airmail stamps to communicate with their relatives abroad. This is good from the viewpoint of the stamp collector because it means that most Lebanese stamps will be used to defray postal charges, leaving only a minimum quantity of mint sets in existence.
That long introduction brings me down to this very desirable set. Issued In 1955, these stamps depict two skiers skiing down a slope among the fabled cedars of Lebanon. Remember, these were not commemorative stamps, but airmail definitives, hence there were some 50°,°00 sets with a face value of about 85(2. As you would guess, almost all of these stamps were used to pay airmail postal charges and few were left for collectors. American retailers ask $5-00 for this set today although dealers in Paris get $9.50 for the same set. New York wholesalers have Just raised their price to $6.00 so you can darn well bet that the current retail price won't be around much longer! The "Michel" catalogue lists this set for $22.50 so you can see that this set does not go unappreciated in Europe. Happy hunting I Finland BllO-13. Here is another country whose stamps represent solid value; this set is no exception. Every collector of Europe, Scandinavia, sports philately, and Olym- piana will need this set, which was issued in 1951 and 1952 to commemorate the XVth Olym piad, held at Helsinki in 1952. As the host nation, no one had a greater right to issue such a set of stamps. With a total of 2,000,000 sets issued, this set is not going to skyrocket overnight, but it will continue to show a steady increase. To Judge from the price asked for this item, .American dealers must have almost the entire world's floating supply; .American retailers ask a modest 60^ for this set although dealers in London get 85J2 and dealers in Paris get $1.40 per set. In the United States wholesale supplies of this set are drying up and most wholesalers can no longer supply this item. American wholesalers who still have a supply of this set get 60^, which is exactly equal to current retail prices. How long do you think this condition can continue? Thought provoking, isn't it?
Greece 677-37. You have a good memory if you remember that this set was tipped here in the December, 1964, and March, 1965, issues of "JSP". This set is still as volatile as a volcano and hasn't settled down yet I You all know it—Greece's long and beautiful set honoring the history of the Olympic Games, issued back in I960. With a face value of $1.20 and only 225,000 sets issued, this set has done some real traveling in the past two years. In early 1964 this set was freely available for $2.25 retail; a year ago this same set sold for $3.00 or so. Today no dealer really knows what to ask, although some dealers ask (and get) $7-50 retail. The wholesale history Is equally interesting. Two years ago this set cost $1.80 wholesale; a year ago it suddenly Jumped to $3.25 wholesale and then really started climbing. Today .American wholesalers ask prices up to $7.50 for this set. My point is that this set is one of the most desirable items of Olympiana issued during the past decade and it is often available on the American market at prices which are below the current wholesale offerings! If you still need this set, I can't begin to emphasize that you should buy it immediately at virtually any price below ten dollars; you can be assured of a steady increase in price as the years go by.
Finland g51. We will close this co lumn with a cheap stamp which is a bargain at cur- rent retail price s. In 1946 Finland is sued a single commemorative stamp to honor the 3rd Sports Festival, held at Helsinki. The design depicted two victorious athletes, a man and a woman; for some unknown reason, they a re nude. .Anyway, a total of 3,000,000 was issued; this may account for the current retail price of only 30j2, which is almost Identical to the new-issue pri ce of twenty years ago. Dealers in London are also asking 10j2, although Parisian dealers get 20(2 for this same stamp. American wholesalers ask 10(2, which is identical to the current retail price If you like to buy your stamps at wholesale prices, then this item is* for you!

EDITORIAL COMMENT M '• " •" -I I a-a-l My editorial in the April issue of "JSP" launched a three-part search for evidence that the rank and file members of our organization really have more than a passing inter est in our program. There I mentioned the responsibilities of voting in our infrequent elections and of my intention to collect evidence and pass Judgment on our membership with respect to this first criterion.
This month my editorial will deal with the second criterion, that of support of our "Questions and Answers" column. Here the questions range from the very simple, which re quire only a single bit of fairly easily obtained material for an answer, through those of medium difficulty, which require either a large mass of easily located data or a small amount of hard-to-find information, to the really tough questions, which challenge our real experts. In short, there is a chance for a contribution by every member from our be ginners to our veterans.
What is the result, then? In actuality only four members out of a potential of well over 350 are showing any real cooperation in submitting either questions or answers. Is it any wonder that I have doubts? I accept the fact that some very experienced, and thus knowledgeable, members are already making their contribution through their continuous as sociation with our inner group of volunteer workers. But I also know that there are many others who have that same knowledge, who cannot claim any extensive contribution of their time and energy to SPI and its program, and who yet decline to help with our cooperative column.
Are you one who has, but only receives and never gives?

I2S GREENE ROAD SPRING PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE 9 I am pleased to announce that John La Porta (SPI 79) has consented to relieve Bill Stoms of some of his extensive responsibilities with SPI. Effective immediately John is taking over the assignment of the sales department. Bill will continue to handle our auc tions. Anyone wishing to submit or to receive circuit books should contact John at 1413 South 58th Court, Cicero, Illinois 60650. He is now in possession of the sales books and the records and is ready to do business. Although the sales department responsibilities represent only a small portion of his contributions to SPI's program, it is certainly appropriate to thank Bill for his efforts in building this service. I am sure that John will continue the fine work. It is also appropriate to remind our members of the splendid opportunity our sales service offers. Your duplicates may be Just what someone else needs and a third member may have Just what you need. Why not get together? Demand usually exceeds supply!

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS New questions: 58. What were the official standings in the 2nd Women's World Basketball Champion ships in 1957 (Brazil 852)? 59. Who won the 5th Balkan Soccer Cup in 1935 (Bulgaria 267-72)? Is it true that on ly four nations participated in this tournament? 60. When was the "A. Girardet Stadium" in Medellin, Colombia (Colombia C249), built? What is its seating capacity? 61. What is the data on the achievements of the assassinated sportsmen on German Dem ocratic Republic B98-102 and B106-10? 62. Who won the 7th Round-Colombia Cycle Tour of 1957 (Colombia C297-98)? Was this a national or international event? Answers: 24. Helen Turner (SPI 17) reports that there are two ways one can obtain Japanese stamps directly from Japan; both are excellent sources and can be depended upon for prompt and courteous service. If one prefers a more personal service, he should write to our club member Frank L. .Allard Jr. (SPI 364). Letters are answered promptly. If Frank hasn't what one wants, he makes every effort to locate it. If one prefers buying from a government source, he should write to the Japan Stamp Publicity Association, c/o Ministry of Posts and Telecommunications, P. 0. Box 5, Azabu, Tokyo, Japan. This organization publishes a business guide to which one can subscribe and will also send one price lists periodically. 30. Carl-Olof Enhagen. (SPI 39) reports that the inscription on Hungary 884 (and its watermark twin, 958) reads "The five year plan guarantees greater sports facilities". 36. Helen Turner ventures some information and a bit of personal opinion on several Greek tourist propaganda items. She points out that in Greek mythology Olympia was never a town but a place dedicated to the worship of the gods and thus was a meeting place for affairs of state, religion, and the arts and sciences. With the inception of the Olympic Games (considered a part of the religion of Greece) Olympia took on the status of a city- state and became the meeting place of all the Hellenic states. Thus Greece 697 definitely Is material related to the Olympic Games. On the other hand, Helen finds no relationship between Greece 693, 701, and 706 and the Olympic Games.
