Default Stamp review 100 Greatest American Stamps



Stamp review, by John and Nancy Wilson, Ocala, FL of the, "100
Greatest American Stamps."



The "100 Greatest American Stamps," written by Donald Sundman and
Janet Klug, is a 144 page hard cover richly illustrated book showing
what many people believe are the 100 most interesting American
stamps. It covers a good cross-section of stamps from the 1918
inverted Jenny and the unique 1868 1 cent Z grill to the 1993 29 cent
Elvis Presley stamp. Market values are given for the stamps from 1920
to present in both new and used condition. This chart allows the
reader to review the historic change in the stamp's value. Following
the top 100 are four pages of honorable mention stamps which include a
1st Issue Postage Currency Note.



Additional historical information about the stamps and other
artifacts associated with the stamps is given. Coins and paper money
associated with the stamps are also shown and described. The coffee-
table-size book appeals to both the dedicated stamps collector as well
as people just casually familiar with stamps. The authors give tips
on grading and educated buying in the current marketplace. The book
retails for $29.95 online at www.whitmanbook.com and bookstores and
hobby shops nationwide.
