 Posted: Fri Apr 18, 2008 8:04 pm Post subject: B.E.A. SG 1, 2, & 3 Catalogue Prices |
 |
|
Help Please - For reasons I am not quite sure of, I have started recording the catalogue value of these three stamps from 1890 onwards, as quoted in Gibbons, Scott and Whitfield King.
I am recording the Mint and Used single and set prices for each year. If anyone has any old catalogues please can they either post the figures here or send me a private message. Posting here will of course let people know which years have been supplied already. Please quote the catalogue and year as well as the figures.
I would be particularly interested in the first ten years of Whitfield Kings prices given their involvement with the issue, buying up most of the stocks after a couple of months of issue, and being responsible for all the examples with Mombasa postmarks dated after about Oct 1890.
Please dig out your old cats and let me know.
Thanking you all in anticipation.

Murray thanks - just what was wanted. Of the 118 possible Cat entries all three from you are new to me and I now have 24 years of SG results.
One interesting point to arise from your data. The last time SG2 (1 Anna on 2d) was cat at £6.00 mint was 1897 until your figure for 1942.
Anyone else with any old catalogues please can you let me have similar info to Murray's post. I would be especially interested in any 1891-1901 Whitfield King prices.
Thanking you in anticipation.
