We are a family-run business based in York, England.

We began 40 years ago, with a store and mail-order business.....
and now our internet business is also growing fast.
But you still get my personal attention and experience,
whether on-line or by mail. Enjoy exploring the store.............. John Barefoot.

° Stamps and postal history of Europe,
° Stamps and postal history of S.E.Asia,
° Collections of many countries, especially Europe,
° Revenues of all countries (except USA),
° Revenue catalogues of many countries,
° Philatelic literature from other publishers.

Check the categories on the left and click....

Try the search box.
It's a quick way to match your special interest with any stock that's outside the menu headings.

Try a country, a philatelic category like "revenue", or even a place name.

The SEARCH tool will pick up your exact wording, OR those exact letters contained in a longer word.
For instance :
- if you enter "REVENUE", it will find "REVENUE" plus the plural REVENUES; however "REVENUES" will not find the singular "REVENUE";
- if you enter "WARSAW" it will find WARSAW but not WARSCHAU, whereas "WAR" will find both (though it will also find anything else connected with "war" too).

The SEARCH tool is very useful if your collecting field is very precise.
BUT, remember to use the MENU headings too (at the left) for the main listings of basic countries.

Easy purchase on-line.
Simply click on "order" for the items you want to buy, this will put them in the shopping trolley.

Basic postage for delivery to any country in the world is free. If you need a delivery upgrade (insured mail for stamp orders, airmail for book orders), buy this at the time of your order - go to "[DELIVERY UPGRADES]" before you complete your credit card details.

Then follow "proceed to checkout", give your name and address details for delivery, and then card details for payment.

The items are reserved immediately, and will be mailed quickly (usually same day or next day).
