BY DE. Y IN E E , EDITOR OF OPPEN’ S POSTAGE STAMP ALBUM. LONDON: WILLIAM STEVENS, 421, STRAND. f PREFACE. T tîE Editor of “O p p e n ’s P o s t a g e -S t a m p A l b u m ,” in submitting th is Catalogue for public approval, begs to remark that it does not profess to comprehend all the numerous varieties of perforation, watermark, &i\, col lected by many philatelists. All primary issues and marked variations in colour, &e., will however be found duly noted, and the list made up to date of publication. No fewer than six additional pages have been added to the later edit ons. Little mention is made of fictitious stamps, and none of forgeries ; so many of the former, and, we regret to say, of the latter also, are rife that a partial notice would be incomplete, and a full one would exceed our bounds. The contributions of Pemberton, Stourton, Atlee, Earće, A c ., on forgeries in separate works, or in the pages of the ‘-Philatelist” and other magazines, should be well studied. Essays have been expunged from the later editions for want of room, except that of New Brunswick, which was really prepared for issue, and those of Zürich, which were the first proj>osed foreign postal issue.
