Gibbons 2011 "Stamps Of The World" 6 volumes *HALF* Retail!

Stanley Gibbons 2011 "Stamps Of The World" 6 massive volumes in full COLOUR! First time ever in SIX volumes.

Stanley Gibbons Stamps of the World Vol 1-6 2011 - THE most useful set in your library!

Published by Stanley Gibbons Ltd. Around 6400 pages now in Full Colour, listing EVERY stamp from EVERY country ever issued.

Complete set of volumes 1-6 covering countries A-Z. Since it was first published in 1934, Stanley Gibbons simplified 'Stamps Of The World' catalogue has become accepted as a standard work of reference around the world.

With its easy-to-use, simplified listings, mint and used prices for almost every one of its 500,000+ stamps, colour illustrations and helpful introductory notes, this is the perfect catalogue for the thematic or all world collector - and general dealer.

The 2011 edition continues the long tradition of expansion and improvement, which has been the key to the catalogues ongoing success. The cover has been completely re-designed for this edition. All miniature sheets are now included.


SIX massive books - each the size of Sydney phone books! At just $40 per book! All in a SG storage box, and shipped well packed within an outer carton, so they arrive in perfect shape to you.

Local retail is $A500 plus shipping. My price is HALF that - $A250 a set Or UNDER 4c a page.

Show this offer to your stamp club Secretary. Most have a set of these on hand, and most are a decade out of date.

These are now in colour, on Brite-White paper stock, not the yellowed old paper and mono of just a few years back. So you will not need to update for 10 years, so for $25 a year to be able to look up with GLOBAL stamp listings, is a pretty cheap deal really.

And even in 10 years, history shows us a set of these will readily sell for $100-150 or more a set, even second-hand!

There are around 6400 huge pages and way over HALF MILLION stamps all priced here. There are 160,000 stamp illustrations.

The BEST.

All miniature sheets are now included, and over 11,000 new stamps have been added to the six Volumes.

Thousands of stamps have been extensively repriced including, British Commonwealth countries, Germany and German States and colonies, Japan, North and South Korea and post-independence Africa.

Over 11,660 stamps and miniature sheets and 3,465 illustrations have been added to the listings in this complete set of six catalogues.

I have a VERY limited number of sets 6 on hand that I can sell at this discount price.

So the faster you order - the BETTER!

These come in a customs size storage BOX from SG. As I use mine every day I bought these inexpensive KEJI black holders that as you can see, fit them perfectly. 2 in each. Officeworks in Australia stock these for a few dollars etc.

2 fit into each box exactly. Look classy, are solid, and do not bow and warp like card ones, and are easy to access.

Well Stan, these full colour books in 6 volumes, on Brite-White paper stock, is a far cry from your 32 year old 2 or 3 volume set, on dreary, yellowed, low grade paper Stan. 8)

And needless to say, there have literally been 500,000 price rises too. :mrgreen:

One set sitting here, double boxed for shipping protection, ready to mail NOW. :)

All payment details are on - http://www.glenstephens.com/payment.html

Call it "SG 2011 SOW Stock 518DX" and please order via:

http://www.glenstephens.com/order.html - can mail it Monday. :)
