A detailed analysis of, accompanied by indexes to, the people and things depicted on all 1,355 postage stamps issued by the US Government from 1847 through 1980. ... This book, which will be both interesting reading and an invaluable reference tool for serious stamp collectors, supplements such standard reference works as Minkus New American Stamp Catalog and Scott's Specialized Catalogue of United States Stamps, serving incidentally as a personal name and subject index to the latter. Recommended for larger general reference collections in all types of libraries. -- amazon.com
