A silver-red Boeing 707 from New York landed at London airport. A crowd of press reporters, newsreel-cameramen and others milled around, filled with excitement. Mr 'Finber Kenny climbed out with the 'One-Cent' British Guiana stamp. This 'one-cent' stamp had been insured at £200,000 (Rs 46,00,(00) and was specially brought by a 'bodyguard' for display at the Stanley Gibbons Catalogue Centenary Exhibition in London, Next morning that priceless piece of paper was the topic of the day. All the papers carried headlines on it and the BBC did a special programme with a close-up of the stamp. What was so remarkable about a scrap of old black-and-magenta paper? The story of this stamp is very interesting. In earlier days the stamps of British Guiana were printed by a British printer, Waterlow &' .Sons. In 1856, the stock of stamps was exhausted but a fresh supply had failed to arrive. So the postmaster hurriedly had 4-cent stamps printed locally using the existing design, the seal of. the colony­ a ship and the motto 'Damus Petimusque Vicis sim' (We give and we seek in turn).

Gold Medal {Hors Concours) 1892. Jy fp/, Ui^ TRANSLATED, ADAPTED AND ANNOTATED FOR THE AMERICAN COLLECTOR BY HENRI PENE DU BOIS, Esa ^^n- NEW YORK GEORGE D. HURST, Publisher PREFACE. This work is the result of thirty years of studies and researches. The science of it was at first for me only an amusement; it became gradually the subject of labors of all sorts, unrelated to my profession, but full of ever renewed pleasures. The collection of stamps is no longer a mania which one need defend. It requires intelligence for classification, skill and care in the ar- rangement of albums, and procures a great quantity of geographical, historical, ethnographic, linguistic, com- mercial and industrial information. I have reunited in this series of chapters the phases of knowledge through which one passes in collecting stamps. Dr. Legrand. INTRODUCTION. Origin of Timbrology. " Timbrophilism, " love of stamp collecting, is not an- cient in the history of humanity, but it is more extensive than other varieties of love of collections.

  • Michigan Supplement
    Michigan Supplement Created for free use in the public domain American Philatelic Society ©2015 www.stamps.org Michigan Supplement Page – 1 Michigan Supplement The state of Michigan is located in northern portion of midwest United States. It is the only state that consists of two peninsulas. The Upper Peninsula — often referred to as “the U.P.” — is separated from the lower, main peninsula, by the Straits of Mackinac. Michigan is bordered by four and the five Great Lakes, plus Lake Saint Clair, giving it the longest freshwater coastline in the world. The state also has more than 64,000 inland lakes and ponds. The state was first settled by the Native Americans. It became a part of New France when it was settled by the French in the 17th century. It came under British rule in 1763, but was ceded to the United States in 1783. The area became a part of the Northwest Territory and later a part of the Indiana Territory with the Territory of Michigan being created in 1805. Michigan became a state on January 26, 1837 — the 26th state to join the Union. The Upper Peninsula, with its natural resources, has become a tourist attraction. The headquarters for three of United States’ major automobile manufacturers are located in Detroit, on the Lower Peninsula. Scott 3079 • 1996 Prehistoric Animals Mastodon The magnificent, giant mastodon lived all over Michigan up to about 10,000 years ago.

INTRODUCTION. Ти E collecting of Postage Stamps is a fashion not confined to this country, or to a single class ; for collections are frequently to be seen in the drawing-room of the luxurious, the study of the enlightened, and the locker of the schoolboy. The fashion has been ridiculed, as all fashions w ill be ; but if postage stamps are properly studied, collected, and arranged, there is no reason why they may not be quite as instructive and entertaining as the collection of birds, butterflies, shells, books, engravings, coins, or other objects. The use and charm of collecting any kind of object is to educate the mind and the eye to careful observation, accurate comparison, and just reasoning on the differences and likenesses which they present ; and to interest the collector in the design or art shown in their creation or manufacture, and the history of the country which produces or uses the objects collected.
