I am not sure where to post this topic, but I am wondering about the usefulness of the Postal Service eGuide to US Stamps. In particular, does anyone know if the stamp images therein are high resolution with a zoom capability?

I would also like to know. It likely belongs in the Philatelic Book, Reference, Supply and Software section.

Looking at the sample pages on the Barnes and Noble website, many of the images are rather poor. But you can look for yourself: https://nook.barnesandnoble.com/pro...780986335532

Thanks ekbustad. My wife is into Kindle, so I went ahead and bought the eGuide through Amazon, just to check it out. It's okay, but I don't think that it's preferable to the print version, at least for me. I was definitely disappointed in the eGuide images--the typical stamp image on ebay has better resolution than the images in the Stamp eGuide. Its capability to zoom in on stamp images is slick, but the resolution is too low for that to matter, really.
