Literature: Scandinavia: Country Catalogs  
These gently used books and catalogs are a great way to build your philatelic knowledge and library. All items are used and in at least "good" condition unless otherwise mentioned. I am constantly purchasing philatelic libraries, thus if there is anything you are seeking, please let me know. I guarantee your satisfaction.

Due to the low prices, variations in weight, and different mailing methods, distances, and destinations, shipping cost is additional for items in the Specials Literature listings unless otherwise mentioned. When ordering please include a note in the shopping cart comments section indicating if you prefer faster/costlier or slower/cheaper delivery so that I may more quickly quote the shipping costs and options for you.

Each item is usually one of a kind; orders will be filled in order of receipt. Payment by MasterCard or Visa suggested, but I will hold items for 10 days pending receipt of check if you prefer.

Illustrations of books in the Specials section may show representative images and not the exact item. If you hover your mouse pointer over a picture, you should see a small message box stating if the image is representative or of the exact item.

DK 1985 Denmark, Greenland, Faroe, DWI, Iceland Catalog: (Forlaget Saga, 1985) An attempt to compete with the AFA Catalogs, this publisher created a very interesting and useful specialized catalog that still offers much useful priced listings and information.

AFA DENMARK SPECIALIZED CATALOGS Each new edition of this specialized catalog contains special articles that are not repeated in future editions, thus the older editions continue to be extremely important references.

AFA Denmark Specialized Catalog 1966: An early edition of this famous "bible" of Danish philately. Includes Slesvig, Faroe, Greenland, DWI. 232 pages. This edition includes a special ICELAND section. This edition is seldom seen; I do not have a record of ever-before being able to offer an example! Excellent used condition; the pages are like-new (but aged due to the inexpensive paper that was used), except for a couple pages at the back which have extremely slight water damage, and the binding / spine is "perfect".

Finland is served by two very useful specialized catalogs: Norma and LAPE. Both are very useful and both have different strengths. Both were revitalized by new publishers around 2000 and editions since that time are much larger than earlier editions. They use different numbering systems (true of every catalog). The serious Finnish specialist will want both catalogs. The Facit Catalog is also very widely used (probably the most widely used outside of Finland).
732008

Greenland Wowern GF 1 Pakke-Porto Stamps 1905-1938 -- 1980 Edition -- NEW OLD STOCK: (Wowern, 1979; 5th Edition) There were three more editions after this one, with the final edition in 1988. (As of 2023, there are still NO announced plans of which I am aware for a new edition, from the owner of the rights. If somebody wants to take on this making a new edition, I suspect the owner will be receptive to a proposal, as he did for the Wowern GF10 Faroe catalog) However, those other editions are scarce to rare (with the 1988 edition selling at a very high price if it can be found). This edition is an excellent alternative for those interested in information on the different printings and the plate varieties. While the organization is different in this edition vs the final 1988 edition, the catalog numbering is the SAME. This edition does discuss the postal use of the stamps, parcel cards, etc., but this edition does NOT list the village or Avane postmarks. 32 pages, saddle-stapled card cover, with the TEXT ENTIRELY (and only) IN ENGLISH. This is from a discovery of a very few copies of NEW OLD STOCK, in perfect condition.

The Facit "Sverige" Catalog is published every two or three years. It is a simplified color catalog with only Swedish text, but it always includes important special sections that change from issue to issue: Reply Stamps, Christmas Seals, Local Post Stamps, etc.

The Facit Specialized Scandinavian Catalog (Swedish section) is the primary Swedish specialized catalog and used by all specialists.

The SFF Catalog ceased publication in the 1980s; up to that point it was the primary specialized catalog for Sweden and included (back then) more Swedish information than Facit. When it ceased publication, some of the information was rolled into the Facit Catalog, however, the special article and some other information that appeared in SFF are still quite useful.

SFF Sweden Specialized Catalog 1974: (Specialized Catalogue 1974) Primary Swedish specialized catalog of its day. This edition includes ENGLISH TEXT in most sections! Special articles include 1855-1875 mail between Sweden and Norway, Denmark (illustrated, English); Pricing of blocks; pricing of postmarks on early issues; Gustaf V in Round Frame proofs and plate numbers; DESCRIBING (something that the Facit does not do!) and pricing of the plate varieties of the Bandmarken era (1920-1930s coils) (in English, extremely valuable); postal stationery; military stamps; locals; and much more. Used copy; the pages are okay, but the front cover has a heavy crease. This contains information that one will not easily find other than in an old SFF catalog like this one.
