 | The book I need is Rogers Postal Booklet Catalogue, edited by Jacques H.
Rogers, published in 1947 in USA by Booklet Stamp Company.
described as "the
bible for each serious booklet-collector" by Walter de Rooy. January 2005
- managed to get a copy of Rogers from
the excellent Leonard H. Hartmann bookshop.
I'll be adding details from Rogers once I have finished the WBC updates.
