Now fixed to 1976. There are quite a lot of existing scans which are not the best (small and/or blurry), these having been sourced from the web. Replacing these with better scans will be done over time, but is not a current priority.The Pom wrote:I've fixed this up to the end of 1948 so far.
All dead images have been replaced with new scans, rather than attempting to recover old scans which were often rather variable in quality. Also, a number of existing scans have been improved with new scans where they were small and/or blurry.

180,000 page views, and near 4500 posts - very popular thread.

Is this what is needed, for example?Global Administrator wrote: ↑05 Aug 2020 09:36
Any member who is able to assist with scans from their own collection is most welcome to add better images of older issues.
We lost quote a few images of quite common stamps in the great Photobucket disaster, and help adding those back will be welcome! This kind of thing -

Thanks GregAllanswood wrote: ↑08 Aug 2020 01:18If you type International into the search box for just this thread, it should give a list that you can work through. But only up to 2016 for now.

From 1913 to 1981 (SG1 to SG836) the catalogue is complete. Many of the images are not to our liking (too small or poor quality) but every stamp is depicted. The Pom deserves thanks for the hours he has put into this task.
From the start of 1982 many images previously hosted on servers organised by iomoon are missing. As an example – page 20 has 22 missing images while I have successfully replaced 28. Not all pages are that bad but there are 45 pages still to be finalised.
Work on replacing those items has been proceeding for some months (long before the PB fiasco) but there is still a need to source many replacement images. Any member who feels they are able to help with this task should contact Glen.
With self-adhesive issues from 2009 to 2016 there are many posts where there are no images at all. Someone needs to assist with those – see my post today on Australia postage stamp images wanted - can YOU assist? http://www.stampboards.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=27114 .
Finally, while the heading for this thread refers to 1913-2017 it is only completed to the end of 2016. The wording used in the thread comes from GSM (Gibbons Stamp Monthly) and to date they have only listed a few issues from January 2017. Images of gummed stamps are obtained from the wnsstamps.post website and nothing has appeared yet for 2017 Australian issues.
I have informed Glen that I will not be continuing to update the AVC so a volunteer is needed. Please contact Glen.
