The Denmark Caravel's: 1933-40, 1933-34, & 1927 issues
The 1933-40 and 1933-34 issues first appear in my '69 edition
Big Blue Picture for Kinds of Blue
For each country in Big Blue, there is a section called "Kinds of Blue" where any differences between the '41,'47,'69, and '97 editions are reviewed. But here, as we have done before, we will present all the "D" & “E” country listings in one convenient blog, and comment about overall trends.
Overview...
A)These countries are identical in content in ALL editions reviewed ('41,'47,'69,'97)
Dahomey
Danish West Indies
Danzig
Diego Suarez
Dominica
East Africa & Uganda
Elobey, Annobon & Corisco
Epirus
Eritrea
Comment: As noted prior, the difference between the ’41 through the ’97 for many countries is…none.
B) For the "D" & “E” countries/stamps in the '69 edition, the '97 edition was IDENTICAL in content in all cases. (The ‘47/’41 editions were also identical for these countries.)
Comment: In fact, except for dropping Anjuan in the ’97, I can’t think of a difference in content between the ’97 and ’69 for the A-E countries.
C) The '69 editors for the following countries, added some stamp spaces.
Denmark
Dominican Republic
Dutch Indies
Ecuador
Egypt
Estonia
Ethiopia
The major difference was in Denmark, where the ‘69/’97 added the 1933-40 definitives/ overprints; totaling 40 stamps & one whole page!
D) But, as we have observed before, the ’69 editors also removed stamp spaces.
Dominican Republic
Dutch Indies
Ecuador
Egypt
Especially Egypt: see my comment for the Egypt blog:
Kinds of Blue gone wrong.
I usually don't comment much on the changes in the BB editions, but the '69 did "quite" a job on some later 1937-38 regular issues. ;-) The '69 BB in THREE separate cases drops the LAST stamp in a three stamp series (222,227,233), then REMOVES a series (228,229,230,). All of these stamps are <$1. And all of these stamps were happily ensconced in the '47/'41 editions. Despite the much greater spread out format of the '97, these stamp spaces were not returned.
E) The '69 continued the trend of removing some small stamp issuing entities.
Dalmatia
Eastern Rumelia
Eastern Silesia
Comment: Not good. :-(
F) Printing error for the "D" & “E” countries in BB
Denmark: See my blog comment:
Finally, the illustrated stamp cut in the first space for the 1933-40 Caravel's is bizarre; a wildly out of place 1875-79 Scott 26 4o slate & blue! I first became aware of this printing error from Bob Skinner's "Filling Spaces" blog. One can imagine the confusion this illustration cut has caused since at least the '69 edition. Ignore, and put in a 238A 15o deep red, the first stamp of the redrawn Type II issues.
Ethiopia
(1930-31) Portraits/Pictorials
A Blank space: a horizontal space; but only vertical stamps left in series, so suggest 240($2+).
Ethiopia
Too much enthusiasm in the ‘69/’97. ;-) The Air Post 1931 issue consists of seven stamps, but BB provides 10 spaces! So I added three of the 1929 air post series to fill out the blank spaces, even though BB doesn’t formally offer spaces for the 1929 Air Post issue. Not that I’m complaining. ;-)
Note: There were a number of stamp color designation changes, as usual, between BB and the 2011 Scott Classic catalogue. They are listed in the appropriate Country checklist section.
G) BB in a few cases shifted smaller countries around between the ‘41/’47 and ’69 editions.
Diego Suarez
Elobey, Annobon & Corisco
Epirus
Below are the specifics for the Countries with differences between the additions.
Stamp spaces for Eastern Silesia not found in the '69/'97 editions
“D” & “E” Countries Kinds of BlueDahomey
The '97, '69, '47, and '41 editions are all the same in content, although there are differences in layout.
Specifically, "Man climbing Oil Palm" issues of 1913-25 are together in the '97 and '69 editions,while split into 1913-17,1922, and 1922-25 segments in the '47 and '41 editions. The 1925-27, 1926-33, 1937-38, and 1937-40 "Man climbing Oil Palm" sections are the same for all editions. Presently, Scott has lumped all the 1913-39 "Man climbing Oil Palm" issues all together in the catalogue.
There is a "singularity" in the '97 edition. The first page for the 1901-1925 year issues has two different sized fonts for the descriptive stamp spaces; a small one and a large one. Neither appear to be the same as the font used in the '69 edition.
Dalmatia
The postal stamps of Dalmatia are not represented in the '69 or '97 editions, but are present in the '47 and '41 editions just after the Cyprus section.

The "47 and '41 editions have a space for the 1892 Scott 30 5s purple ($1+) The '47/'41 editions also have under Officials, 5 blank spaces for the 1886-87 issue. Suggest O1,O2,O4,O7,O8,O9,($2+) as possibilities.
The '69 and '97 editions has three more space for the 1893 issue ( Scott 37 ($10+) & two blank spaces).
For the blank spaces, suggest 38($2+), and choices not taken (31,33,36,34,37,($2+-$10+))
Egypt
The '97 and '69 editions are identical in content.
The '47 and '41 editions are identical in content.
The '47 and '41 editions have a different layout for the "Sphinx & Pyramid" designed stamps, but the coverage is the same compared to the '69/'97 editions.
The '47/'41, contrary to the usual pattern of not necessarily being up to date on later issues, provides seven! more spaces for the 1937-38 issues, and provides three more spaces for the 1923 King Fuad issue. Therefore, a total of 10 spaces were removed in the '69 edition, and did not return in the '97 edition.
The '47/'41 does have a printing error which is described below,
Finally, the '69/'97 does provide for 5 more spaces; mostly in the air post section.
The '47/'41 has three more spaces for the 1923 Scott 99 20m dark green, Scott 100 Scott 50m myrtle green, & Scott 101 100m red violet (<$1).
The '47/'41 has an extra space for the 1934 Scott 186 50m prussian blue(<$1).
The '47/'41 has a two extra spaces for the 1937 Scott 214 15m & Scott 215 20m stamps(<$1)

The '47/'41 has three extra spaces for the 1937 series Scott 228,229,230,(<$1)
The '47/'41 has an extra space for the 1938 233($1+)
The '47/'41 has an error: a 1936 series Scott 201 description (15m dark violet) space, AND a 15m illustration space- the same stamp! Should be Scott 200 13m copper red. This was corrected in the '69/'97 editions.
The '69/'97 has an extra blank space (suggest 111) for the 1926 series.
The '69/'97 has four more spaces for the Air post 1933-38 series (C17, suggest C7,C18,C19,)
Elobey, Annobon & Corisco
The '97, '69,'47 and '41 editions are all similar in content. Elobey, Annobon & Corisco's stamp spaces can be found after Cuba in the '69, and after Cuba and Eastern Rumelia in the '47 and '41 editions.
Epirus
The '97,'69,'47,'41 editions are all identical in content.
Epirus can be found after the Dutch Indies section in the '69. In the '47 and '41, it can be found after the section on Ecuador.
Estonia
The '69 and '97 editions are identical in content.
The '47 and '41 editions are identical in content.
The '47 and '41 editions do not offer a space for the 1924 Scott 40 25p yellow (<$1)
A bit interesting, as the '47 and '41 editions label the date "1920-21" for the "Skyline of Tallinn" issue.
The 1924 Scott 40 was not added until after the '47 edition, when the date label was changed to "1920-24".
Ethiopia
The'97 and '69 editions are identical.
The '47 and '41 editions are identical.
The '47/'41 edition has for the Air Post 1931 issue: 5 spaces rather than 10 spaces ('97/'69). That leaves out suggested C16,C17,C1,C2,C3. Of interest, of course, is the blank spaces outrun the number of stamps in the issue in the '69/'97, and I had to add three of the 1929 air post series to fill out the blank spaces.
The '47/'41 edition for the 1930-31 OP 1928 issue has 10 spaces compared to 12 spaces in the '97/'69.
So drop two of the OP stamp choices in the '47/'41 ( see checklist).
The '47/'41 editions do NOT have the 1936 Italian occupation stamp spaces (seven stamps- N1-N7).
Note: Map appears in the public domain.
