This is "The International Postage Stamp Album, Junior Edition, Fully Illustrated" Scott Stamp & Coin Co., copyright 1935, with ads in the back for 1937 edition stamp catalogues. The oldest U.S. stamp in the catalog is 1873 (see comment in "About Our Stamps") and, obviously, none are newer than 1935. This catalog is offered for sale with the stamps in it. The album is hard cover (the red in the photo is the original spine, not tape), measures 9" x 11.5" x 2" thick, weighs about 5 lbs, and has hundreds of pages (I'm not going to count them and they're unnumbered). There are hundreds of stamps inside, and they are each single--that is, there are no duplicates.
     Many stamps are used, but a surprising number are unused, and all are mounted with stamp hinges.
     The light-colored circle in the middle of the cover is a sticker advertising Kane, PA, that I stuck over the depiction of a world globe in the mid-1950's. Sorry about that! :-(

With the exception of one stamp, I have never removed any stamps from the catalog. Although not full by any means, I would estimate that there are approximately 700 stamps in the album (see rough count by country, below) including the U.S. and many other countries in existence at that time. Also, except for the one stamp I removed, I've never tried to determine the market value of any of the stamps in the album--until Fall 2003 when I checked some of the U.S. stamp values in a current catalog. (The stamp I removed is offered under the Special Stamp link on the Main Page.)

This partial page from the U.S. section, highlights above the Post_It's left corner, a stamp that I've identified as Scotts #423—1912 $1.00 violet-brown—in very fine condition (hinged) and, according to Mystic Stamp Co.'s 2003 Vol. 4 catalog, is worth at least $100.00. The stamp to the left of it may be valuable, too, but has had "R E Co" punched through it, and may be Scotts #421 or #422.

Price: $555.00 FREE S&H NOTE: A cursory price check on 10/21/03, finds two potentially valuable stamps in the U.S. section--one that may be worth $100.00 (see above), and the other may be worth $150.00 (I didn't mark it, so I can't readily find it again). A number of others may be valued from a few dollars to $20-$30. If these prices are close to accurate, these few stamps alone may be worth the price I am asking for this album containing about 700 stamps.
