Postage Stamp Chat Board & Stamp Bulletin Board Forum
 

Hi All,
I have a small stamp inventory program on my computer. It is call StampCAT. Anyway I have most all the issues from Congo-Brazzaville, Congo-Kinshasa, Burundi, and Kiribati entered into the program. I have the catalog numbers for Scott all entered. However I also have catalog numbers enter into the program for Congo-Brazzaville from the Yvert & Tellier catalog. Likewise for Congo-Kinshasa and Burundi, numbers from COB. And I working to enter the numbers from Stanley Gibbons for Kiribati. I have found out over the years that the Scott Catalogs are not the final word in stamp collecting. So I use the foreign catalogs too, despite the language barrier as I had Latin, Classical Greek, and German in school. Anyway my question is what to do with all this information. Someone somewhere should be able to use it.

I asked someone on the board for the pages from Stanley Gibbons for Kiribati, but I haven't heard anything from him. Maybe he is busy. I need someone to look up the Stanley Gibbons numbers 163-178, 171a, and 175a for Kiribati and give me some description of the stamp issues so I can synchronize them with Scott. I know this all sounds crazy and it is a lot of work, but it helps me and it has been an interesting learning experience for me.
Thanks in advance,
Dean
