GIBBONS STAMP MONTHLY
Inside the July issue

Features the latest research into the origins of one of Britain’s most mysterious philatelic rarities – the so-called ‘Treasury Roulettes’. Discover how Ray Simpson’s analysis of known examples has given a clear picture as to how, where and when the roulettes were produced and distributed – leading to the conclusion that they had nothing to do with the Treasury at all!

Also an in-depth look at the general purpose revenue stamps of New Zealand as David Smitham reviews some of the more interesting aspects of these fascinating fiscals.

Collecting the postal stationery of the world can be a challenging and rewarding area of study. If you have ever considered taking your collection down this path then GSM has just what you are looking for. Inside, members of the Postal Stationery Society, which marks it 21th anniversary this year, share a few of their favourite topics with readers. Articles in this special collection include: British Foreign Rate postcards, Belgian ‘Sunday Label’ cards and an introduction to the postal stationery of Mauritius. Discover ‘what’s on the cards’ in the July issue.

From postcards we move to the diverse world of postmarks as David Horry returns with his popular series focusing on King George VI examples. This month, he travels to Southern Rhodesia, which offers a rich collecting vein of rare KGVI postmarks. Elsewhere, Harry Lane offers more remarkable postmarks, this time of the British variety, as he reveals new information on a few of the ‘skeletons’ in his collection. Find out what he has unearthed in the July issue of Gibbons Stamp Monthly, available to download now.
