A is for Aden and Z is for Zanzabar


A is for Aden and Z is for Zanzibar... Now what is between? For the world wide classical era philatelist and stamp collector, a country specific philatelic survey is offered by the blog author, Jim Jackson, with two albums: Big Blue, aka Scott International Part 1 (checklists available), and Deep Blue, aka William Steiner's Stamp Album Web PDF pages. In addition, "Bud" offers commentary and a look at his completely filled Big Blue. Interested? So into the Blues...

The Part IA1 checklist for Aden-Ethiopia is available here

The checklist that was scrolled down the left side of the blog is now complete for Part IA1 Aden -Ethiopia. It includes not only all the A-E countries found in Big Blue now, but those political entities/stamps that were dropped in the '69 edition.

Here is the checklist.

If printed out, keep in mind the list is 223 one sided pages with one column. I've seen two column formats that work quite well. A three column format does squeeze the notes, but is do-able.

The checklist of course is also included with each countries blog. Remember, caveats and cautions about the checklist are often more fully discussed in the specific country blog.

Now a reminder about the format and uses of the checklist.....

Note: You will need to consult a Scott catalogue for specific pricing. I only give a very "ball park" price, and never the actual catalogue value.
<$1= less than a Dollar
$1+= more than a Dollar
$2+= more than two Dollars
$5+= more than five Dollars
$10+= more than ten Dollars
$20+..and so on.

Note: Some Scott numbers appear out of sequence. That is because I usually follow the layout of the page. 

Note: Blank spaces are sometimes limited by which stamp will fit.

Note: Due to the vagaries of copy/paste, the <$1 valuation appears as &lt; on this list: remember here that means less than $1 valuation. ;-)

1914-26 Ceres

Update note: The 1914-26 "Ceres" issue presented here is based on the 2011 Scott Classic Specialized 1840-1940 catalogue. But the 2014  catalogue revises the listings into 1914 "chalky paper" Perf 15 X 14; 1915-22 "ordinary paper" 15 X 14; 1921-26 "ordinary paper" 12 X 11 1/2; and 1921-25 'glazed paper" 12 X 11 1/2 major number catagories. It also gives a minor number to the 5c pale blue.
Here are the "old" numbers....
118,119,120,121,122,123,124,125,126,127,128,130-deep blue, 130-bright blue, 131,132,133,134,135,136,137,139,140,141,142,144,146,148,149,151,154(&lt;$1-$1+)
Two blank spaces: suggest 138,155 (&lt;$1)
Note: Scott 1947 catalog broke down the todays Scott 130 5c Blue Ceres into two colors:deep blue and bright blue. To fill the two spaces with todays Scott 130, look for these two shades.

Blank space: suggest Scott 18or 8 to pick up the other choice, or Scott 10 ($10+), or Scott 11($10+)
Note: The purist in me prefers Scott 8, as that is a "real" 1873 issue. Scott 18, although the same design in a different color, really belongs to the 1882-1886 series listed below.

Some major Scott numbers have shades that were issued after 1940, while the pre-1940 shade is now catalogued with a minor number. In other cases, it is difficult/impossible to determine which shade Big Blue is listing. I am ignoring shades for the purpose of the checklist, so there could be Scott numbers listed here with color varieties issued after 1940. For the full discussion, see Big Blue Bottom Line-Antigua.

Still, Scott 231 is the only "brown" 10c stamp in the series, so must be it. :-) Addendum April12, 2011: There is definitely a red-brown colored 10c, because I have it. But it might be Scott 490 '49 wmk 288. There is also a 10c brown-I have it too. But it could be Scott 529 '46 unwmk. The "real" 10c "brown" is wmk 90. Time to get out the watermark tray...

Update note: The 1912-1932 "Ceres" issue originally presented here was based on the 2011 Scott Classic Specialized 1840-1940 catalogue. But the 2014  catalogue revises the listings into 1912-19 "chalky paper" Perf 15 X 14; 1917-21 "ordinary paper" 15 X 14; 1918-26  "ordinary paper" 12 X 11 1/2;  1924-30 "glazed paper" 12 X 11 1/2 , and 1930-31 Perf 12 X 11 1/2 "With Imprint at Foot" major number catagories. I will present here both the old numbers (for those with an old (~2011) catalogue), and the new present numbers (~2014).

Note: For differences between type I, type II, type III : see Scott.
Note: BB lists date 1879-1894 which fits exactly the type I issue; but type II (1894-98) begins in 1894 and is generally less expensive, so is included here. Also type III ('98) is included.
Note: Minor numbers are type II, except 6b (type III).

Note; This is only the tip of the Iceberg with these Brazil definitives. There are EIGHT more series through 1940,, each with a different watermark. Big Blue only covers through 1924, and provides no further spaces.

Note: I am interpreting BB's "1861" date as "1861 type", so the (slightly) less expensive 1866-67 issues are choices.

1914-26 Ceres Update Note
The 1914-26 "Ceres" issue presented initially was based on the 2011 Scott Classic Specialized 1840-1940 catalogue. But the 2014  catalogue revises the listings into 1914 "chalky paper" Perf 15 X 14; 1916 "ordinary paper" 15 X 14; 1920-26 "ordinary paper" 12 X 11 1/2; and 1922-26 "glazed paper" 12 X 11 1/2 major number categories. 
For those with older catalogues (~2011), I will first present the "old" numbers. I will then present the current (~2014) numbers.

Old numbers....

Note: I'm giving the choices for the '26 Ceres issues as that is clearly the intent of BB. But Scott now lumps all the A6 designed Ceres together under the "1914-26" dates. So if one wants to insert ANY A6 Ceres choice, then (alternative suggested) 165(&lt;$1) and 168($2+) could be put here.

Ceylon

1857 Queen Victoria (Imperf)
one penny (illustrated): Scott 3 1p deep turquoise ($40+) or Scott 1p blue ($250+)
Note: A judgement call : I interpret the "1857" date by BB strictly, and do NOT include the less expensive perforated 1861, 1863, and 1863-67 one penny issues. If BB wanted us to consider the latter issues, they should have printed "1857-67" for the space. If you wish to put perforated issues into the space, just alter BB's date to "1857-67". You will find the cheaper one penny issues under "additionals" in Big Blue Picture.

(1938-40) Regional surcharges on Dr Sun Yat-sen 5c Green*
Six blank spaces: These regional surcharges consist of a 4c surcharge for Hong Kong, and 3c surcharge for Shanghai, Hunan, Kansu, Kiangsi, Eastern Szechwan, and Chekiang. The surcharge colors are carmine, black or red. Some surcharged stamps have watermarks. *Big Blue specifies the 5c "green", but that is a mistake (in my opinion), and the 5c "olive green" should also be collected. The regional surcharges appear on the 5c "green" and 'olive green" Scott 440,441,442,443,444,445,446,447,448. So mix and match, and obtain a nice selection for the six spaces. See Scott for details.

Comment: If you wish to include these stamps in BB's spaces, change the inclusion dates in BB to 1870-1901, or 1870-1904. Because of cost, may be a good idea!

*Note 35: space is illustrated in BB with small numerals in corners which would argue for 35, a $100 stamp. But the date range is 1882-85; so 38, a larger corner numeral variety, and a $2+ stamp, is allowed.
Note: 1882 Scott 35,37 are small numerals in corners; while 1884-88 Scott 38-40 are large numerals.

  1. Infinite Thanks!!!!

    I some years ago (5?) acquired a BB 1947 edition on Ebay that is in pretty good condition and has a good number of stamps in it already. I have not yet come round to continue with the collection, but am about to get into it. And one of the major challenges I am immediately discovering is what catalogue numbers there are in BB... :-) So your list is a god send!!

    I'll be following your blog as well as Bob's Filling Spaces.

    Again many thanks for your dedication and efforts!

  2. Thanks Tommy for the kind words.

    The '47 has some differences with the '69, but any deletions/additions to the checklist are noted for Aden-Ethiopia in the "Kinds of Blue" section for each country post.

    BTW, I've been to Zurich, beautiful city!

    ReplyDelete
  3. Yeah, Zurich is usually quite nice, especially in summer with the lake and all. Only this year we have had really miserable summer up until now...
    Cheers!!
