Not worth its own thread I don't think, but putting this here as related: The History of the Postmarks of the British Isles from 1840 to 1876, by John G. Hendy. https://www.gbps.org.uk/information...20(1909).pdf

Catalogue on its way, with tracking number.

I'll be interested in the postage used, when it arrives,
I thought $10 US was a reasonable ship price.

A similar book ship from Sydney would be up around $25-$30

Maintaining my 100% record, No loss in the mail for 15+ years.

Alcock and Holland arrived from India (16 days) ($10 us postage)
Beautifully packaged, and nice to handle a tome, That countless other philatelists have.
A very handsome book book, with so much information.
Thanks to Bobby for recommendation

For anyone else that might be interested, Phoenix Auctions have a copy of the book in their current auction, lot 257.

A bargain at the reserve.
