вышло новое издание каталога Американского Общества китайской филателии
The new expanded 2016 Edition of the CHINA STAMP SOCIETY SPECIALIZED CATALOG OF CHINA TO 1949 is now available to replace the 2011 edition.
It is a 520-page, full color, comprehensive, specialized listing for the Imperial issues of 1878 through the Republic issues of 1949.
Although originally built upon the Ma Catalog, it goes much further with thousands of specialized listings of varieties and previously unlisted stamps.
In addition, historical and explanatory text has been added to tell the “who, what, when, where, and why” information so meaningful to an understanding of the material.
