Which Catalog For Switzerland Lists & Prices Pro Juventute & Other Booklets?

Which catalog for Switzerland lists & prices Pro Juventute & other booklets?

I have a recent regular Michel for Switzerland, and a 1999 regular Zumstein for Switzerland and Liechtenstein, and I'm not seeing the detail I might expect to see.

Do you have to go to either the Michel or Zumstein Switzerland Specialized to find more detailed listings and prices?

As for a Zumstein specialized, I'm a little bit confused: is there both a 1-volume Swiss specialized (last issued in 2000?), and a 2-volume Swiss specialized (last issued in 2009?).

Does anyone have access to any of these catalogs?

Thanks in advance for any help!

I have the 2000 Zumstein specialized - it comes in two volumes. I am not aware of a 2009 specialized Zumstein.

I checked the Zumstein website and they still list the 2000 special catalog as available. There is a 2009 catalog for stationery however.
The 2016 catalog ( not the Spezialkatalog ) is now out. It is in color and lists all of the booklets ( heftchen ) with prices. Also the individual setenant stamps out of these booklets.
I see a price of 35.00 Swiss francs. Go to http://briefmarken.ch for their website.

Peter: Thank you very much for both of those replies! Very helpful!

May I drill down on a couple of questions?

Do you know if it's a new feature that the regular Zumstein lists and prices the booklets? I ask because I'm not sure if it doesn't appear in my old 1999 edition, or if it's here and I just can't find it. (Usually, with some work, I can read German catalogs, but I can read French fairly well (was once very proficient, decades ago).)

Do you -- or perhaps someone else -- know whether or not there would be an even more detailed listing of the booklets (possibly cover variations, or tagged vs. untagged) in the Specialized?

I ask because I've picked up quite a selection of Swiss booklets (many Pro J, plus some others) and am trying to understand what I have.

Thanks again, for your help, and to any subsequent contributors as well!

Well, let me tell you what I know.
In the 2012 catalog ( the latest regular cat I have ) the booklets are on a couple of pages by themselves. Pages 276 and 277. They are called "Markenheftchen - Pro Juventute - Carnets".
Now, if I read the website correctly, the new 2016 catalog has a chapter on tagging on Swiss stamps.
The 2000 spezialkatalog has tagging info but all spread out throughout the books.
Also, the Spezial lists all the booklets thru 1999 and pictures them in black and white. No varietie or tagging info.
By the way, a couple of years ago I had a question and send the folks at Zumstein an E-mail in English. They did at that time respond in English, so you might try that?
If you have another question, feel free to ask!

Philarium, in my 2012 catalog the booklets are indexed together with Rollenmarken-Automaten-Marken, Kehrdrucke, zusammenhangende etc. Maybe this helps you find them in your older catalog, if it lists those!

Peter

Found them!

It threw me off that the booklets, including Pro J, were in a section preceding the section with the actual Pro J stamps!

Thank you very much!
Danke schön!
Merci beaucoup!
Grazie mille!

OK Dave, you are welcome. But you forgot "Dank je wel", a thank you in my native language - Dutch! Just joshing!

Peter

Lol -- I was just trying to cover the official languages of Switzerland!

Btw, I've just sent you an email through the system here.
