ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
I have taken this information from a number of sources that I found available, including the catalogues of Scott's, Gibbons, Michel, Szekely, etc., a large number of stamp journals, and have also received invaluable information from Bela Bauer, Ben Reeves, John Grafel, Doris and William Stericker, and the Austro Hungarian Philatelic Society members. I wish to thank all of them for their invaluable aid, which has made this booklet a fund of information which I hope you will find a worthy addition to your philatelic library.

February, 1948. MARIAN CARNE ZINSMEISTER

This booklet uses the Types and Catalogue Numbers from Scott's
Standard Postage Stamp Catalogue, 1947 edition.

Please Note: Since 1947 some of the catalogue numbers in Scott's have been changed. Catalogue numbers 133-152; 223-305; 397-399; 442-444 and 457 have not been assigned by the Catalogue editors. Numbers 225-262 (szeged) and 265-305 (bánát bácksa) are now listed as 'Occupation Issues' in the back of the Hungary listing. The szeged issues are now numbered 1-P1 and the bánát bácksa issues are 10N1-10NP1. Number 305A is now 103A. Please consult Scott's Catalogue.
