After several years of gathering and summarizing all Cricket Stamps that
have been issued
worldwide, Mel has been able to create the most complete CD catalogue on the
market today.
There are over 800 stamps, labels and other issues, including some 300
bona-fide postage
stamps issued by Post Offices around the world. All of these have been
brought together on
this one CD so that you can have the benefit of a handy FULL COLOUR
Catalogue to help
you with your Cricket Stamp Collection. This CD covers 107 years from 1900
to December 2007
NEW ISSUES ARE UP-LOADED AS THEY APPEAR
Mel has been retired for almost 3 years which gives him time to keep this CD
completely up to date.
Please order yours today! Shipping from U.K. will be within 72 hours of

personally checked by Mel before it is sent to you.

ASSOCIATED STAMPS are those which are
issued by Bona-fide Postal Authorities around the world, but whose CRICKET theme is not
readily apparent - serious enthusiasts have researched the subject and found interesting
"Associations" with the game, which are usually explained in the text.
{NOTE: Because so many issued stamps
can be "Associated" with CRICKET, indirectly, or in some cases, obtusely, these
items listed below give details ONLY as a reference, of issues previously discovered or
researched by "ENTHUSIASTS". It is up to each individual collector to decide how
far to go in the definition of "Associated" stamps - otherwise you may run the
risk of lining the pockets of unscrupulous dealers or agents who may find a way of
"unloading" material onto a market which collects "everything". It is
your choice!}
