I'm thinking that it should be pretty easy for you to tell if Amos is selling the straight 1954 edition


A very pleasant surprise!

In all countries that you list, the enhanced pages for the country included in the 1957 supplement are there!

Estonia:3 DS pages, No Minkus numbers
Fiume: 3 DS pages, No Minkus numbers
K,U, &T: 3 DS pages, No Minkus numbers (Goes up to 1955)
Maldive islands: 1 DS page, No Minkus numbers (Goes up to 1956)
French India: 3 DS pages, No Minkus numbers (up to 1954)

Conclusion: The Part I 1840-1952 "1954" Minkus Supreme edition sold by Amos now is, at the very least, enhanced with country pages included with the 1957 supplement. No Minkus numbers in the spaces.

This is an important finding - thanks very much Eric!

I can't recall at the moment, did the 1959 edition include Minkus numbers? Maybe Amos added expanded pages from the 1959 edition to their reprinted 1954 edition.

Jim - I just tried sending you an e-mail and discovered that I'm still considered a new member and can't do so. Could you send me an e-mail with your personal e-mail address that I could use. Thanks.

I recall that a Minkus Supreme owner, that also had supplements, stated that in 1958, the Minkus numbers were on Supplement pages.
