| TAYLOR Susan and WALDRON Julian, STOCKDALE Graham | Anguilla's quest for identity. The philatelic story
This book contains a fascinating insight into the Philatelic History of Anguilla. The events of the 1967 revolution are well known and many former Philatelists have written articles on the stamps and history of the Island however, this is the first attempt to bring its Philatelic history into a single reference point. ... Anguilla’s Postal History is interwoven with the economics, political and Government events of the day and explains why the Anguillians, through years of neglect by controlling authorities, wanted Independence. To see a clear philatelic history of the Island the authors have extensively researched the events, people, covers and stamps to produce a comprehensive review of Anguilla’s Philately.
It is hoped that this captivating book will stimulate interest and further research from other Philatelists. |

| Ali, Jazad | The Stamp Cancelling Machine Slogan Postmarks of Trinidad and Tobago 1923-2023
Jazad Ali (Jazz) has been researching and building a collection of Trinidad and Tobago Postmarks for over 40 years. Jazz is a WIPSG member and a longstanding member of the Philatelic Society of Trinidad and Tobago. In 1997 he and Ronald Wike established a Trinidad & Tobago slogans numbering system, at which time they published 'Machine Cancellations of Trinidad& Tobago'. ... The publication, a longstanding item of pride for the Philatelic Society of Trinidad & Tobago, won several international awards at the time. Ron Wike died in 1999, but Jazz has continued to collect and research, amassing thousands of covers. This book, published this month, is the result of a lifetime's work. It beautifully displays the postmarks, slogans, cancels and cancelling machines over the 1923-2023 period, and gives an informed insight to the social history that influenced each of the slogans over the years. A highly recommended read for all Trinidad and Tobago collectors.

| Ford, Peter (compiler) | Early BWI Covers Perkins Bacon Adhesives – Barbados
The original idea of recording as many covers as came on to the market must go to Michael Hamilton; his listing of philatelic events and covers posted at the time is a goldmine! ... The next plaudit must go to Fitz Roett; from his lair in deepest Alberta, he has over the years amassed a fine collection of items from the island of Barbados. In 2013, he collaborated with that fine philatelist, the late Charles Freeland FRPSL and Peter Longmuir to produce a book entitled ‘BARBADOS –The Britannia Issues’.
The list that follows emanates mainly from these two sources. Other collectors have contributed as well and I list their names in alphabetical order: Graham Booth FRPSL, Jonathan Guy, Joseph Hackmey RDP FRPSL, Christopher Harman RDP Hon FRPSL, Stefan Heijtz FRPSL, Michael Medlicott FRPSL, Michael Rego, Simon Richards FRPSL, Ray Stanton, Richard Stupples and Takashi Yoshida FRPSL; all of these collectors have fine collections of Barbados covers. Acknowledgement must also go to dealers and auction houses who have generously supplied me with high resolution scans of covers in their keep. These have been noted beneath the illustrations. As with all these lists, it is a work in progress and we do not expect that we have listed all covers; others will no doubt exist and we would hope that collectors seeing this list will add to it with items we have failed to record. |

| Rego, Michael | Grenada Social and Postal History
This new Study Paper delves into the intertwining of political and postal history from the early 18th century until the first part of the 20th. ... The history of the military adventures around Grenada and the early shipping services are investigated with timetables of the sailings as well as postal rates of the time. The text is complemented by illustrations of postal material from the late 1700s to the 1930s. Michael’s researches are extensive and very little has escaped his notice. Although not strictly a purely philatelic publication, it relates the story behind what one normally sees in items of postal history, an interesting story nonetheless. ISBN 978-1-907481-50-5

| Taylor, Susan; Barrow, Edward; Mohammed, Nigel & Park, John | The Untold Story of the Lady McLeod
This well researched book delves inside the prized Lady McLeod covers, untangling the family and business history that seeded their existence. ... It gives a detailed account of the Lady McLeod Steamer. The study takes a closer look at the contents of Lady McLeod letters, and raises questions about their markings. It links David Bryce, Alexander Taylor, Edward Bacon, James Graham Taylor and even King George V to the Covers, describing the stamp enthusiasts and forgers of the time. Readers are transported to Glasgow and Trinidad in the 1800s, where merchants using the steamer for communications, ran their businesses. There is also an updated census of the covers. A fascinating read for philatelists and a ‘must’ for any cover owner.

This book catalogues all of these stamps and shows some very uncommon uses. The coverage extends outside the West Indies to Malta in particular and also to Fiji. There are instances where farthing stamps/labels were used as revenues in Australia, South Africa and diverse places, such as Heligoland. There are listed examples of the farthing labels used in the Highland Railways of Scotland. Places where farthing stamps were used are all covered and as a special treat there is an appendix showing some rare uses from the Ronald Rong Collection.

| Fernbank, Peter FRPSL; Blinco, Jeff and John | King Edward VII Imperium Keyplates
Printings, Plate Number Allocations and Key Plate Varieties ... This work provides a study of the Imperium style key plate issues within the 16 colonies that employed this design. The formats of the key plates are determined and a detailed plating study of Key Plate 1 is provided, a rare example of such a study on a surface printing plate, whilst the ‘Spaven’ and ‘Missing Frame’ flaws are examined in depth. Philately has long misunderstood the format of Key Plate 2 and its true size and format is revealed. A study is made of the damage sustained to the marginal areas of the plates, particularly the marginal rules, which can assist in determining the date of printing of certain marginal examples.
Individual colony sections list all printings for each colony and the use of ordinary or chalk-surfaced paper is recorded for all printings. The basis on which the plate number allocated to each printing has been deduced is given. Additional information has been derived from the De La Rue and Crown Agents records, together with that from philatelic literature, and any exceptional events noted. |

| Fernbank, Peter | Bahamas – Stamps and Postal Stationery To 1970
Collectors of Bahamas have long awaited a successor to Harold G. D. Gisburn’s slim handbook of 1950 in which he briefly touched on most aspects of Bahamas philately. ... Since then many of the philatelic disciplines within Bahamas have benefitted from scholarly and detailed publications but stamps and postal stationery have remained substantially neglected. This book, a joint project between the Royal Philatelic Society London and the BWISC, attempts to remedy this situation. Each series of stamps is examined in detail, from its inception and development through to its issue and eventual demise. The various archive items that exist in both private and public domains are examined and listed, including artists’ essays, die and plate proofs, colour trials and Specimens, etc.

What he has discovered may change the way we view the use of the Colonial mails in a period before telephone tapping and hacking became the norm. The Cold War was warming up, just as the sun was slowly setting on the British Empire: and the so-called ‘Registered’ Ovals started their intriguing life as instruments of surveillance!

| Freeland Charles, and Jordan, John | Antigua – The Stamps and Postal History’
Coming so early in the alphabet Antigua has always been one of the most popular of the small Caribbean islands ... It has an interesting mix of early stamps printed by Perkins Bacon and De La Rue including a number of rarities. On the postal history front Antigua is especially well endowed, with the Codrington and Tudway estate correspondences. There is also a rich variety of early postal markings, including some unique marks. The original inspiration for this book was the Antigua Monograph published in successive issues of the British Caribbean Philatelic Journal over a 15 year period between 1973 and 1988. This book collates all this information, updates it and presents it in a most readable form.

| Gleadall, Mary | The Tudway Letters
This book concerns the Tudway family’s correspondence from 1751 to 1858. ... Over 1,400 covers were discovered and this work by Mary Gleadall examines the history of the family, the history of their employees in the West Indies and the correspondence emanating from that relationship. Mary’s dedicated researches into the old families of Antigua and Barbados over an extended period and her persistence in getting deep into the social history and political events that allowed the plantations of this period to flourish is breathtaking. It comprises a serious and thorough record of the contents of the hundreds of letters that reflect the concerns and challenges facing the writers, problems with weather, crop fertility and difficulties in managing the workforce. A very thought-provoking book which goes beyond pure philately and should be valued by all interested in the West Indies.

| Fernbank, Peter | King George V Key Plates of The Imperium Postage And Revenue Design (Second Edition)
Since its publication in 1997 this work has become the standard reference for collectors of the issues of this King George V Universal key plate style ... It was awarded the prestigious Crawford Medal by the Royal Philatelic Society, London, for the most valuable and original contribution to the study and knowledge of philately published in book form during the relevant period. It was further awarded a Large Silver Gilt medal in the Literature section of the British National Stamp Exhibition in 1998. This study encompasses the issues of all of the 17 colonies that employed this design. From a comprehensive examination of the De La Rue and Crown Agents archives it has been possible to produce a listing of every printing made of this key plate style. A wealth of additional information has been added to this basic framework that adds flesh to the bare bones of printing statistics. A fascinating feature of this issue is the large range of different numbered key plates employed during its life and collectors will find here listed all value/plate number combinations that were used for each colony. Of particular interest to the specialist is an in-depth study of the flaws that developed on the various key plates and the damage sustained to the marginal areas of the plates, and this section has been considerably enhanced. In certain cases these can provide significant evidence of printing dates. A further important aspect of this work has been a review of the philatelic practices and procedures employed by De La Rue and the Crown Agents during the King George V period and this information may well be of great relevance to students of other issues within this period. This second edition updates the original work and provides much new information. In addition the vast majority of the original black and white illustrations have now been provided in colour and a considerable number of further illustrations have been included.

Primarily covering the Leeward Islands Federal issue postage stamps and stationery, excluding the Presidential issues ... The Federal Colony was formed in 1871 and shortly after comprised five Presidencies —Antigua, Dominica (until 1940), Montserrat, St. Kitts - Nevis and the Virgin Islands. Anguilla and Barbuda had their own post offices and Barbuda its own stamps in 1922. The history of Thomas De La Rue & Co's developments of their colonial key plate types is inseparable from that of the Federal issues when these types were used throughout the Colony's philatelic life. The proofs, essays and colour trials listed are those items which were, or may have been, subsequently employed in the production of Federal postage stamps and stationery. A brief summary is given of the postal arrangements from 1840 for each of the eight islands. Tables covering all 70 post offices and their postmarks (170 are illustrated) include known dates open and periods of usage. Postage rates for letters, stationery and airmail are recorded with tables and lists summarising the minimum rates from 1840.

It details all Postage Stamp issues within the period, as well as the Postal Markings; the coverage includes Postal Stationery, Postage Dues, and Revenue and Official Stamps. The final chapter examines the' D22' markings ofCiudad Bolivar, the 'TOO LATE' marks, Ship Letters, Military Mail and many other more esoteric aspects of Trinidad philately. There are five Appendices which include a listing of Trinidad Governors and Postmasters-General, details of the printings of all the Postage Stamps as well as a census of the Lady McLeod stamp with many of these illustrated in colour.

It is an extensive and detailed illustrated study of these stamps from their origins through to the repeal of the enacting legislation. "As readers will see, the value of this book lies in its scope, depth and, inevitably, weight. The meat of the book is the record of the detailed stamps from each territory, starting with the local context behind their issue and following with different printings, varieties and flaws on each issued stamp, examination of the surviving proof and essay material and their potential usages. It is difficult to think of any detail however trivial that has been omitled. "
