Sorry...
We heard from you, and you want more studies of stamps and less travel info. A good idea; it will begin with this Report! There is room for all of this stuff, as you will see. Let us know what you have found unter der Lupe.


Shift!
Here’s Michel 266 with a printing problem. The Druckerei let one sheet slip thru with a bad case of mis-registration--the blue plate has shifted to the right to lose focus. The 1588 High Gate still stands, high and dry, since the 1905 removal of the fortifications.

Edward B. Krause
27 May 1928 - 22 September 1996
It is with deep sadness that we report the death of a very dearfriend, Eddie Krause. As you will read in John Whiteside’s article, Eddie was always ready to offer help to anyone who asked, and his expertise in Prussian covers has aided all of us, because he shared his knowledge. Words can’t express our gratitude to such a philatelist.
