Guide For Sorting South Africa Definitives (Rsa 1st Series)

Recently I received a large accumulation of South-African stamps. Many of these definitives that all look the same but still are different somehow. For the first series from the Union, the one with Van Riebeeck's ship I found this wonderful page created by a member of this forum: http://www.stampcollectingblog.com/...926-1954.php
But now I want to concentrate on the first series of the Republic, issued in 1961 and further. Playing with my UV lamp I noticed there are fluorescent and nonfluorescent ones, and there are obvious changes in lettering but I find myself lacking a good overview. Scott does not help and frankly, neither does the SACC.
Does anyone know a site that makes it "easy" just as Keijo's site does?

Jan-Simon, Michel has a pretty decent, illustrated overview of this series (6 pages in total). See sample below:



Oh, and thanks for liking my blog :)

Thank you, I will check Michel and hopefully this will get me further.

Hi Jan-Simon

If you wish I can e-mail you the South Africa tables that are used in my friend's store. The illustration numbers and catalog numbers, unfortunately, are Scott. If it will help any send me your e-mail address with a subject of "Jan-Simon (SCF)-South Africa" and I will send it out. Note that the tables are in MS WORD.

I have just sent you an e-mail. Thank you for your offer.
