My error is magnified ! You should have heard some of the things I said, when I was learning Thai. Sizes not required Jerry, Steiner will have them, or I measure after they are under Hawid, and add a few mm. But Thanks.

Hi Rodney
As you know I have a Blanco catalog but, alas, no scanner. There are 8 orientations of the GN punch. In Blanco the GN (Gobierno Nacional) listings is 20 pages long. If I draw the orientations, would that suffice?

Hi Rodney
What I will do is list the issues that have the GN punch (along with a picture of the stamp if possible). That should help. Give me a day to put it together. In Blanco the issues are just described and listed with no pictures and of course in Spanish.

Jerry B Hello Jerry, I have pretty much everything 1859-1970 I'd like to see close ups of genuine 1859-1862 both fine and coarse impressions. I'd like to see the Air semi postals and the Special delivery stamps I'd like to see the "Banrigh" genuines.

For students of Venezuela. Hall and Fulcher's treatise is published here..... archive.org/details/londonphila2829191920royaPossibly not for the general collector (as myself) fairly in depth and deals with plating. 35Mb one would need a fairly powerful computer, mine occaisionally hung looking through the huge document. May also be of interest to other country collectors, I noted New Zealand and British Colombia Columbia I think.
