How the Site is Arranged I do not use catalog numbers. There are too many different catalogs in use through the world for any numbering system to be nearly universal. I describe the stamp in English, using the non English proper nouns. The find the stamp you want, pick out the most likely proper noun that would describe the stamp. Go to <a href="search_for_information.htm">Search this site</a> and type in the proper noun to see if you get any hits. Try two or three different words, one a time,  if the first try doesn't work. I have made hundreds of categories to be browsed. I can make many more. What other categories would you like? <a href="Contact_Information.htm">Contact</a> me. Sometimes, you can specifically <a href="Search_for_covers.htm">Search</a> for a cover with the sites' search engine. Sometimes, the search engine delivers too many results, many off topic. I can usually help. If you are looking for something and not easily finding it, <a href="Contact_Information.htm">contact</a> me and I'll prepare a search for you.
