Drying Books

Stamp drying books

Drying books are very useful when you are soaking stamps off paper backing. They are a must if you are soaking stamps in bulk.

Original Desert Magic Drying Book

This drying book by Showgard is a must for flat out soaking of stamps off paper. The “Desert Magic” Drying System utilises a special release paper with heavy blotting pages. The release paper will not permit stamps, even those with problem gums like PVA to adhere to the drying surface.

The absence of plastic interleaves shortens the time traditionally needed to dry stamps.

The book contains 7 blotters with 6 release pages.

Size: 8½ x 5¾”

Desert Magic II Drying Book

Like the original but 11″ high. This is our jumbo version made especially for collectors requesting a higher capacity drying book.

It offers the same special release paper and blotter pages as the Original. This larger format will easily accommodate blocks or souvenir sheets.

Size: 8½ x 11″
