"British Empire War Tax Stamps & Their Usages"
Self-running eBook CD-ROM (for Windows-based PC´s and Mac computers
using "OS X") containing several hundred scans of the award winning
exhibit (silver & vermeil at TEXPEX and Grand-Award at
Mid-Cities Stamp Club; https://www.mid-citiesstampclub.com).
All exhibit pages (more than 160) that have been shown (at one
point or another) are included on this self-running CD-ROM.
This exhibit covers all British Empire "WAR TAX" stamps (those
designated with "MR" numbers in Scott´s Stamp catalogues), as well
as some of the revenue war tax stamps issued by Canada.
The various WarTax stamps from British Empire entities were
primarily issued around World War I (although North Borneo issued
them in World War II and Bahrain in 1970´s) to help pay for their
War efforts.
The stamps are generally easy to find mint (many collectors bought
them); however, finding them used on covers or postcards can be
quite a challenge, especially to find them "properly" used (ie: not
"philatelically" used).
This exhibit shows a wide range of various War Tax covers and cards
(several hundred of them). The countries and colonies covered
are:
-Antigua
-Bahamas
-Bahrain
-Barbados
-Bermuda
-British Guiana
-British Honduras
-Canada
-Cayman Islands
-Ceylon
-Dominica
-Falkland Islands
-Fiji
-Gibraltar
-Gilbert & Ellice Islands
-Gold Coast
-Grenada
-Jamaica
-Malta
-Montserrat
-New Zealand
-North Borneo
-St. Helena
-St. Kitts/Nevis
-St. Lucia
-St. Vincent
-Trinidad & Tobago
-Turks & Caicos Islands
-Virgin Islands
There are also pages showing the various War Tax stamps themselves,
along with information about the number of printings and the
respective war tax acts (where known); these pages can also be used
as Album Pages!
Many years of research have gone into this exhibit, and it can now
be yours for a low price.
Thanks in advance; if you have any interest at all in the War Tax
stamps, you´ll find a lot of interesting material to view here (and
you can view it at your leisure, unlike at stamps shows where the
lighting isn´t good and you get a backache from standing or
kneeling to view an exhibit)!
The CD works with Microsoft Windows and Apple´s OS-X operating
systems. Please contact me if you have any questions.
