Below is what the creators have accomplished to bring this CD to all Cricket Stamp Collectors....

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

Mel has been retired for almost 3 years which has given him time to make this CD
completely up to date.

Please order yours today! Shipping from U.K. will be within 72 hours of receipt of your payment.

Your complete satisfaction or money back within 14 days. Each CD is personally checked by
Mel before it is sent to you.
