Channel Islands Catalogue Recommendations Please

I am looking for a not too specialized not too simplified British Channel Islands reference catalogue.

Does anybody knows which is the best for this purpose?

Any help and advice would be appreciated.

Hello friend:

For British Stamps I recommend Stanley Gibbons, you can obtain simplified catalogue too.

Regards!

I'd recommend the Stanley Gibbons catalogue, "Collect Channel Islands and Isle of Man Stamps". It's published annually and shows all the stamp designs in colour.

NigelC,

Thanks ! Does it reffer to watermark and perforation changes or is it a simplified one?

Hi Seahorse,

Yes, it includes watermark and perf differences. I can't think of many perf changes but I can see that the Alderney Flora and Fauna definitive perf varieties are included.

There are also quite a number of missing/incorrect colour errors and thick/thin paper varieties listed as well as FDCs, presentation packs, booklets and booklet panes.

NigelC,

Many thanks. It was just the information I needed.

Cheers.....
