Stanley Gibbons Bangladesh, Burma, Pakistan & Sri Lanka Stamp Catalogue 3rd edition

This 3rd edition of the catalogue provides a comprehensive priced listing of the stamps of Bangladesh, Pakistan and Sri Lanka and also includes the British colonial and Japanese Occupation issues of Burma.

KEY SELLING FEATURES:
• New for this Edition: There have been a number of new listings among earlier stamps, but the major development is the addition of government telegraph stamps. In Burma this comprises just one set, but the Ceylon listings have added 8 new pages to the catalogue, with clear colour illustrations of the various overprint and surcharge types. This section also includes watermark varieties and the telegraph stamps of India used in Ceylon between 1869 and 1880.
