Facit Scandinavia is printed in Swedish AND English...... I have enough French and Spanish to read text though I don’t speak either very well . I can handle most of the German text in Michel, and there is always a dictionary when stuck .
Since the US is heading to be a bilingual country, when will there be a Spanish version of Scott ?😄😄😄

You could also use Colnect for cross catalogues reference. The only thing that’s not so great is that Colnect have missing stamps as it’s dependent on the contributors. But it’s nice if you need different number of different catalogs.

But it’s nice if you need different number of different catalogs. It was that aspect of Colnect that made me become a contributor several years ago. To have in one place a"slide rule" to know what Michel number equals which Scott number is so handy if you want to shop on the internet from dealers outside your home country. Slowly but surely over the next few years the gaps of missing items and data will be filled. |

djcmh, I know right! It’s certainly very convenient to have all the catalogs number of the same stamps at the same place! You could be a North America collectors and could still buy that one missing stamps in Europe! I noticed that you’re also a contributor of the month  . That’s something inspired to contributing to the Colnect catalog itself.
