Folded Typewriter Postcards (Bell, 2008) Subtitled "Effective Economical Commercial Communications -- Types, Usages, Rarity, Development, Growth and Decline", this book is a fascinating study of a special type of post cards that were designed to be typed (message AND address) on one side, then the address portion folded and glued to show on the other side. Used primarily in Europe, they were used in the Scandinavian countries; author reports Scandinavian usages as "Scarce" to "Rare". Well written, very interesting, and packed full of useful info on this subject and broader postal history. 115 pages perfect bound, entirely in English and in FULL COLOR. Only 200 printed!

The Return Post of the Danish Postal Service (and Catalog of Official Seals) (Kurt Hansen and John R. Sabin, 2007) This important reference is the English translation and expansion of a series of Danish-language articles written by Hansen. I had proposed to Sabin that these articles be published in English; Sabin has done a terrific job of bringing this valuable info to a wider audience. The information in this small handbook was virtually unavailable in Danish and non-existent in English. The catalog of the Official Seals (dead letter office / returned letter stamps) is extremely valuable and goes well beyond anything previously available. Completely in ENGLISH and well-illustrated in FULL COLOR throughout. ONLY 60 COPIES PRINTED.

Danish Postal Rates and Postal History 1875-2003 (Bundgaard, 2011; Danske Forsendelser 1875-2003) A combination of a postal rate and postal history book, this is an invaluable reference for any collector of Danish covers. There are good rate books for common rates, for early air rates, and the rates for which stamps were issued. However, this book delves deeper into the rates, including unusual uses. Especially useful are AIR RATES FROM 1950s-1980s which have otherwise been almost impossible to find in the literature. In Danish, but fairly easy to use. Very sturdy softbound, 216 pages.

Stamp Mount Cutter This is the mount cutter that we prefer to use in the office and with our personal collections. Made sturdy enough to cut heavy paper, yet highly precise with a sensitive touch. 6.75-inch cutting length with spring-loaded cutting arm to make smooth, even cuts effortlessly. Clear plastic hold-down at the cutting edge is narrow enough to work with very small mounts and wide enough to hold firmly -- it can be removed for larger items. Crisp, clean cuts with confidence. The handy slide-out (removable if you wish) storage drawer is terrific for keeping various small mount pieces. We have been using this for a couple of years, but I wish it had existed decades ago! Lower cost than other mount cutters of this size -- and I think it is better!
