Sorry about that. It will be corrected in the next release.

Please let me know if you find others. There is no spell-check in the application I used to create the bookmarks and Table of Contents.

Give a man a Rolls Royce for free and he complains that the hood has a scratch.

This is an amazing resource. I subscribe to Linn's and have always enjoyed reading his articles and learning more bit by bit on expertizing and what to look for in general w/r to identifying stamps, as well as possible flaws. Thank you, Mr. Hotchner for the articles and Mike for pulling them together.

I had to read this quote twice. I suppose that means I need to look in the mirror. Or get my glasses fixed. Yeah, I am SURE it's a glasses problem.

Great resource, especially since its penned by John Hotchner. He mentored me when I started writing (a lifetime ago). What a gentleman he is, packed with philatelic knowledge and more importantly, blessed with the ability to share it in a meaningful and enjoyable way. This .pdf got saved onto my hard drive at first sight...thanks to all those who made this possible !

This is one worth keeping, especially for those of us who did not see the first round of publication. I have downloaded it and started reading it immediately. John Hotchner is an engaging writer whom I have long enjoyed and this is but one more evidence of that. Kudos to all concerned.
