GREAT BRITAIN used GRENADA postal history (1858-1860). Price £36
You can now order and pay for your own DIGITAL copy by pdf (no refunds). Can arrive in your desktop, tablet, laptop in seconds with no hold up at customs for import duty. This file most suitable to take to auctions, stamp fairs, philatelic gatherings, or just to show other interested collectors, and essential to the newcomer thinking of making a display. 92 covers, a study mostly in b/w, which makes its own statement due the lack of excitement attached to the many GB 6d packet rate covers to the UK (often enormously overestimated by auction houses, dealers alike). A one frame would easily embrace the 6d single, 1/- double, 2/- quadruple rates to UK, offers two very rare REGISTERED covers to the UK, and most unusually has GB stamps affixed at Grenada's Carriacou island taken up the Grenadines chain for posting with St. Vincent Kingston "A10". . Provenance added when known. 27 pages (A4 size) Price £36 payable by PayPal or WISE transfer.
