Présentation de l'éditeur

States, revised and brought up to date, has been much needed by collectors; and this book is placed before you to supply that want. It has not been our aim to list all the minor varieties and shades possible for the specialist to include in his collection, but to give a list of all the principal varieties such as the average collector would desire. Notes have been inserted throughout, calling attention to the less important differences which can be followed more deeply by those who desire to do so. Undoubtedly the circular stamps of California are the most difficult to classify and list correctly. It will be noted that all values are listed on several varieties of paper. This may not be correct, but it is known that several values do exist on all of the varieties of paper mentioned, and it is probable that all exist. The stamps of the otherS tates have not been so difficult to classify, and in most cases we have had possession of the stamps before listing, as well as copies of the laws authorizing their issue. Many States have used tags to show that the Inspection Tax had been paid upon Feed Stuff andF ertilizer, but for lack of space, as well as definite information in regard to some issues, we have omitted them from this list, trusting that we can include them in some future work. Thanks are due several of our members for submitting specimens for examination and assisting materially in compiling this list. Special credit should be given Mr. E. R. Vanderhoof for his work on theN ew York State Revenues. Through the kindness of theS cotts Stamp Coin Co. of 12 7M adison A ve., New York City, we are able to illustrate the comptrollers surcharges that are found on the California revenues, as they have kindly loaned us the cuts used in the A danaw Revenue Catalogue, published in 1893, J. DELANO BARTLETT, July 20, 1910. Secretary.
