One of the benefits of APS membership is the access you have to their Philatelic Library and reference collections.

Here is a link to part of the APS Berlin (Germany) reference collection as an example: http://www.stamps.org/Tours/Berlin/index.htm

OK Swabbie, I need more info.

I've been a member of APS for about 18 months now and I've been all over their website - or so I thought. But I've never seen 'Tours" for any country. How/where do you find this on their website (i.e. without the direct link)?

Thanks,
KirkS

Kirk - I don't think they have a link to the entire collection. They make different areas available on the website from time to time.

The main reference collection is used in their expertizing program. PhilB is more experienced in that part of the APS than I am. You might shoot him an email.

Hey Greg, thanks for the plug...i have been in the reference library in person briefly a few times but I had to choose between reading about stamps or looking at circuit books in the sales division..7 or 8 hours goes quickly at APS Hq. I learned something new from your link as well ..lets take a look at Guatemala !!
