Scott illustration numbers have been used in all but a few Instances as less likely to be changed than the individual stamp numbers, so that even the beginner can readily determine from the catalog which stamp carries the illustration and how many there are of any particular issue. Countries are arranged in alphabetical order, in preference to that by possession, for easier reference, as only the advanced historian can readily recall in many cases which country belongs to which in this changing world. Illustration numbers for colonies have been omitted where the illustration is essentially the same as for the mother country or the illustration varies only due to over- print, surcharge or country title. Churches and similar institutions that were formerly Catholic have been designated with an asterisk. Some few listed in former editions, particularly of the Balkan area, have been omitted as being too remote in interest for the average collector. The list under Biographical should undoubtedly be much larger, particylarly for the South and Central American Countries, but the available encyclopedias give but meager details at best, and rarely any mention of the individuals, religious affiliations or his devotion thereto. Crosses and Crucifix designs have been listed in so far as they seem to appear with a religious connotation, rather than merely because they are part of an emblem, coat of arms, etc. The collector is, of course, free to add or delete, as the list is intended as a suggestive aid to those interested in items of Catholic significance. Space does not permit the naming of, or the rendering of adequate thanks to collectors, both clerical and lay, organizations and publications, for the many previous suggestions and historical references to designs that otherwise would have been overlooked. May they find satisfaction for their efforts in the spread of the hobby and the increased religious interest of other collectors to whom the list has been of benefit. la.
