Has anyone developed an index for the Smithsonian A Stamp for Every Country Album? The pages are organized by geographic region: North America; South America; Europe; Africa; Asia; Australia & Oceana; Antarctica; and Other Entities. Although paginated, it is very difficult to quickly go to a country you are looking for without plowing through the various regions. For example, Europe is divided into Western, Northern, Central, Eastern and Southern Europe. An alphabetical index of all countries/entities listed in the album would make it much easier to use. I believe someone in one of the forums mentioned that he was working on this. Has anything come of this effort? I like the single specimen approach to worldwide collecting and this album is nicely done apart from the lack of an index.

Yes, there is an index available, but I can't seem to find a link to it. I do, however, have a PDF copy and, when you reach 50 posts and are able to send me a message with your email address, I would be happy to send you a copy.

I have tried to find [Google] this "album" but just get sent to dead links. I tried emailing coastwatcher but got a message that coastwatcher did not accept emails. Can anyone post a link that works to this Smithsonian album?

The pdf does seem to have vanished from the Smithsonian website, but it can be found on the APS site:

Coastwatcher - in case you're continuing to read this thread, your settings show you not wishing to accept email messages. That's why I wasn't able to reach you for one of my giveaways.

Hello Coastwatcher,

Now that I have reached 50 postings, I would like to take up your offer for the index to the Smithsonian album. However, I was unable to send you an email to make my request. I believe you can find my email on my listing.

I'm going to have to check on the email situation because I've received emails from members in the past and, as far as I know, I haven't changed anything in my settings. As a matter of fact, I can't even find where the email settings are at.
