The Stamp Collector.
By HARDY and BACON.
This well-known and most interesting handbook was published in 1898 by Mr. George Redway in his Collector Series. On the failure of this publisher lately, we purchased the balance of the edition—about 1,200 copies—and are now able to offer the work at a great reduction on its original price.
The chief contents are as follows:
The Issue of Postage Stamps. Collecting—Its Origin and Development.—Stamps made for Collectors.—Art in Postage Stamps.—Stamps with Stories.—History in Postage Stamps.—Local Stamps.—The Stamp Market. —Post Cards.—Famous Collections.—List of Philatelic Societies.
