Interesting reading, as the early contributors (a veritable
Who's Who) worked out the kinks of this important arm of U.S.
philately. - Volume 1 Highlights: Much Coverage of Bureau
pre-cancels and plate varieties, as well as extensive coverage
of the issues of 1929 and 1930, including the Zeppelins; Volume
2 Highlights: A new emphasis on plate numbers and plate
number checklists, as well as a continued interest in Bureau
pre-cancels and plate varieties and extensive coverage of the
issues of 1930 and 1931. A new die, the Type II of the 2¢ of
the 1922 Series (Scott's 599A and 634A) was announced, although
it was noted "it will probably take a keen eye to locate
a new type on these stamps". Of note: an advertisement
for the rare one cent foreign entry on the two cent of 1908,
(now listed as a variety of Scott 344) was offered by C. W.
Bedford, chairman of the plate varieties committee, in a plate
strip of 20 for $9.50. The shift is well-diagrammed by Bedford
and makes a convincing argument. The existence of this
"foreign entry" is now in dispute. Volume 3
Highlights: The distinction between "shifted
transfer" and "double transfer" is clearly
defined. Continued emphasis on plate varieties and Bureau
pre-cancels. |
