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 and variation in weight, 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.

Stamps, People, and Philately: (Ranten, Nielsen, Jensen, 1969; Frimærker Folk og Filateli) A very nicely produced book that is little known outside of Denmark. Discusses Danish stamps and philately; is virtually an encyclopedia of Danish philately covering a tremendous range of subjects. I especially note the information about Danish forgeries. (This book appears to have been a model for the Icelandic "100 Years" book.) Very readable format, though completely in Danish. Hardbound, color illustrated, 247 pages. Includes ESSAY of Scott #463 4-block that alone sells for $60! A must-have book for every serious collector of Denmark. (Also #13114.)

Denmark Revenues catalogs: Group of two photocopies of earlier Danish revenues catalog listings. "Stempel Mærker 1974" listing and pricing the basic documentary revenue stamps; originally 6 pages copied onto 3 pages. "Stempelmarkenkatalog der Nordischen Staaten, I Danmark, II Danish West Indies" published in 1951 in Helsinki, listing and pricing mostly just the documentary and playing card revenues with German and English text; originally 12 pages copied onto 6 pages. Obviously both quite dated, but still interesting and useful perspective.
