Yes, René, I have Scott 2005 "I have just spent two useless hours" looking for these three stamps.
When I volunteered to help an old friend catalogue her Japan I broke my self-promise never to volunteer to anything.
Thanks again.

Well, I have a set of 2013 Scott Catalogues, and I could not find these stamps either. The frustrating part about it is that I recognize these stamps. I know I have copies of these back in California with my modern, on-paper material. Perhaps Philatarium or seigaku or butterfly who all know more about stamps of Japan than I do can provide further info. Sorry I was unable to help more.... |

Thank you very much to one and all.
Over the past 20 odd years I have been giving stamps to my lady friend who had been collecting them - in her own way - with her grandson whom she was babysitting. However, time passed and the boy grew up to realise it is no longer Kooool to hang around gran. I am now helping her make sense of her 40 or so binders - (she has a whole binder of Magyar but not a single stamp of Hungary). Fortunately I kept my DVDs with Scott 2005 and I gave her an old laptop, copies of Scott 2005 and Steiner pages. She is enjoying herself once again which is good to know because she really missed her grandson's company. My next lesson will be to convince her to start from scratch using hinges instead of gluestick.
To the gentleman who welcomed me back I send my thanks. It was kind of you to remember me. I no longer collect; I have no more stamps having given all my collections away except for my last collection, India Feudatory States, which I sold about a year ago. Having said that, I hope you will not mind if occasionally you still see a post from me seeking assistance. For this, I thank you all in advance. Salvete, amici!
