- Hugh Jefferies MBE has been a collector for nearly 65 years and the editor of the Stanley Gibbons Catalogue since 2003.
In this talk, he traces the development of the catalogue since its first edition in 1865 and explains how it has adapted to meet the changing needs of collectors and the challenges of new technology and the issuing policies of the world's postal administrations.
He discusses the work which goes into each new volume and invites everyone to contribute to future editions to ensure that it remains the best guide to our hobby available.

Why are your catalogues so expensive ?
I find that any styamp catalogued at 20p or more in the 1986 world catalogue is "worth keeping specially". Obviously not in ALL cases.
This is a most excellent stamp calalogue which I have used over the years, except for one thing and this really bugs me. If you have a set of older stamps, very often you are missing one or two stamps in the set, usually the higher valued stamps. However, when you complete the set you will find that the complete set is valued at less than the sum of each individual stamp in the set !!
Take for example St. Helena 1908 set of 4 mint stamps # 64/ 70. You'll probably find you have the first 3 which are valued mint at £68.25 in the 2023 catalogue. When you buy the fourth stamp it is valued at £275. However, and this is what is ridiculous, your complete set is now only worth £275. Does this mean the first 3 stamps are worthless? There are multiple examples of this throughout the catalogue.
This is something that really needs to be changed. It is only common sense that the sum of each individual stamp in a set should equal the total value of the set - every time.
