Higgins & Gage World Postal Stationery Catalogue

Bermuda Postal Stationery is listed in Section 2 of 1966 Edition 1 of Higgins & Gage World Postal Stationery Catalogue – a worldwide  encyclopedic catalogue of postal stationery. Despite most volumes not having been updated for over twenty years, the catalogue and the H & G numbering system are still widely used  although the values given in the catalogue naturally out of date.

The catalogue was published between 1964 and 1986 and comprises nineteen alphabetical volumes with supplements. The earlier volumes were edited by Edward Fladung who worked with Alexander D. Gage in the production of the catalogue. Later editions were edited by Melvin Feiner.

Neil says: “You buy this as a PDF and it will enable you to quote or check Higgins and Gage reference numbers.”
