Greenland: Booklets: Private

Greenland semi-official and private booklets are quite scarce; most have been made in very small or extremely small quantities. Almost all of these booklets contain stamps that have been engraved by Slania and they are avidly sought after by Slania collectors as well as Greenland collectors.

All booklets are Never Hinged and Very Fine in fresh and attractive condition.

If you have variations not shown here, I would like to know about them. If you seek variations, please let me know.

The numbering is printed on the top front of the booklet cover. Privately issued by stamp dealer, apparently in cooperation with the Greenland post office. Some of these booklets exist with panes made up of horizontal or vertical pairs/strips (even a few 4-blocks and a few 2x pairs instead of 4-strips) and may be mounted upright and/or inverted, i.e. mounted by right or left margins with the margins to the center of the booklet. The order of the panes may vary. I have even discovered a previously unlisted variety using a face-different stamp in the booklet. If you seek specific mounting positions, please inquire. Though some of the mountings are surely scarcer than others, so far we do not know enough to differentiate them in terms of price. I am always interested in buying these booklets.

Set #3-12

VF: The complete set of Greenland booklets #3-12. (Booklets #1-2 contained Danish stamps and are available separately.) The DAKA Cinderella 1999 catalog gives a value for the set at DKK 2600 (approx $390). [201869]
