  • To the AIRPOST JOURNAL VOLUMES 61
    Index to The Airpost Journal Vol 61-79 1990-2008 Index to THE AIRPOST JOURNAL VOLUMES 61 - 79 Page Section 1 Introduction 2 Airpost Journal Index 59 Author Index INTRODUCTION I have been a member of the American Air Mail Society for many years and during that time I have not done anything useful, except the payment of annual dues. One of the rules I have always adopted is if you are a member of a Society you should do something to further the cause of that body. My opportunity came when I read the President's Message in the December 2008 Air Mail Journal that he wanted somebody to up date the Index of the Air Post Journal so I volunteered little knowing of the task that I was undertaking. I am not a professional indexer but have had a little experience in indexing magazines in the UK. The task was to index the magazines from 1990 to 2008 (228 magazines) roughly in line with the index published in 1992. As previously stated the index continues from the previous edition except that I have included items from Letters to the Editor. I feel that there is much information contained in these letters which is of value to aerophilatelists. To quote the previous index "The APJ Index is meant to be a document helpful, but not comprehensive" and I have tried to continue in this vein. That said I hope that the Index will prove to be of some use. Needless to say any errors, omissions etc are entirely down to me.

    The Czechoslovak SPECIALIST COMPLETE TWENTIETH CENTURY SUBJECT INDEX: 1939 - 1999 Compiled by Anne G. Vondra Edited by Ludvik Z. Svoboda Published by The Society for Czechoslovak Philately, Inc. 4766 S. Helena Way Aurora, Colorado 80015 USA First Published 2003 COMPLETE TWENTIETH CENTURY SUBJECT INDEX INTRODUCTION The Society for Czechoslovak Philately was founded in March 1939 and the first issue of THE CZECHOSLOVAK SPECIALIST was published in May 1939. From that first issue until January 1990, it was printed as a monthly periodical. From January 1991 on, it became a bi-monthly publication with more than double the number of pages per issue. Wolfgang Fritzsche first compiled a SPECIALIST Index in 1964. In 1974, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Stollnitz put together the first Subject Index and combined it with a Priced Catalog of Postal Stationery. Anne Vondra thereafter indexed the period from 1974 to 1980. The two Indexes were combined into a Subject Index published in June 1980 as vol. 44, whole number 419 of THE CZECHOSLOVAK SPECIALIST. This Index was further expanded to a Cumulative Index encompassing the period from 1939 to 1992. But in the year 2000, Anne Vondra compiled a complete 60-year Subject Index embodying every issue of THE SPECIALIST published during its uninterrupted period of existence up to the end of the 20th century. The new Subject Index contains numerous abbreviations. Listed in alphabetical order is a glossary of these abbreviations: Ann. — anniversary Assn. — Association h. — halér (heller) Illus. — illustrated Int. — international k. — koruna (crown) k…. — Czech koruna (crown) k…s. — Czechoslovak koruna (crown) m/s.

  • Postal History & Philately
    POSTAL HISTORY – AN INTRODUCTION PREAMBLE Postal History is not a Postage Stamp on a Cover (Envelope). It is a COVER with or without a Postage Stamp that will illustrate the use of the Postage Stamp or similar markings indicating payment. A Postal History attitude towards Postage Stamps will be: – • Why was it issued • What was it used for? The material that a Postal Historian collects will be chosen because it supports and illustrates the answers to those two questions. As far as the issues of New Zealand are concerned, the Handbooks on the Postage Stamps of NZ, issued by The Royal Philatelic Society of New Zealand, and in particular Volumes III and VII is the Postal History collectors “bible” Also overseas publications, that include Robson Lowe’s Encyclopedia of British Empire Postage Stamps, Raymond Sales, numerous Tomes “La Poste Maritime Françoise History Catalogue” etc. There are of course the very valuable publications issued by the Postal History Society of New Zealand, and their counterparts in Great Britain, Australia and the USA. More recent publications include those printed by The Royal Philatelic Society, London and the Stuart Rossiter Trust, not forgetting the publications privately published by Colin Tabeart. Whilst Stamp Collectors have many Stamp Catalogues showing all the stamps 1 issued including the Dealers selling price, however no such catalogues on Postal History exist. Some guides are available, but probably the best guide to value can be gleaned from Auction realizations, although this can be misleading, especially if there is only one person bidding. The true Postal Historian, must have access to a good and varied Reference Library, and have the time to carry out the necessary research to maximize the information that can be discovered about the item being investigated.
