to our site contents page.These are attractively-produced, high quality presentation,
properly bound books in slipcases, produced each year since 1984.
They are profusely illustrated, with background information about
the stamp issues and their design and designers. They are normally
sold by Royal Mail wrapped in film and with the stamps in a
package at the front of the book, with the buyer being expected to
insert the stamps into their appropriate spaces throughout the
book.
Everything listed here is in stock at time of updating this list,
unless it is listed in grey, in which
case we were temporarily out of stock at that time.
Quality; These are supplied in very fine condition, which would be
defined as follows; {1} the film wrapper will have been opened or
removed, {2} the stamps will all be present, and may or may not
have been inserted into their mounts, {3} there may be some very
minor dents or marks on the outer slipcase from normal careful
handling, but nothing that would be initially obvious, {4} there
will be no writing in any part of the book (some of the early
books actually had a space at the front intended for filling in
the owner's name - if this has been filled in we would think of
the book as damaged and sell it cheaper).
If any customer specifically wants a year book still sealed in its
film wrapper, please ask when ordering; we may be able to supply
(sometimes at the same price, sometimes a little higher). If a
book is supplied sealed, no return can be made due to the quality
of the content. 1988 is an exception.
| These prices are now very
tempting ! See our main competitors in the trade -
they're generally at least 10% to 50% dearer ! |
|||||||
| We now price the majority of
UK decimal mint items - right across our stock - at
simply the face value of the stamps plus ten pence. All
the prices here in bold are priced in that way. So 1991
for example has stamps with a face value of £10.59
(counting any "1st" and "2nd" etc. at current postal
rates), so we just charge £10.69. "Good value" is an
understatement ! |
