This set contains all 6 essential volumes covering the entire globe (countries A through Z) of The Scott Standard Catalogue of Postage Stamps.
The catalogs, in publication since 1868, are updated annually by our expert team of philatelists. Our team scours the globe hunting down all new issues and obtaining stamps from prior periods, across all the countries of the world where stamps are issued.
We then catalog each stamp, (scanning a high-resolution image of it using state-of-the-art scanning technology), assign in at Scott Number and then our valuing analysts research its value. The resulting value is included alongside the listing.

We continue the proud tradition of publishing our printed, full-size, full-color catalogs on premium stock for your enjoyment. We've separated each volume into two books (i.e. Volume 1 A & Volume 1 B, Volume 2 A & Volume 2 B, etc.) to make each book lighter and easier to browse through and transport. No internet connection required.
Each year volumes 1-6 are typically released one per month from April through September. If no print editions are listed below, it simply means we've sold out of one or more individual volumes and cannot fulfill the set. Print Editions have one print run and once they sell out they're gone. Please check back again next year.
