Descriptive Catalogue Of Postage Stamps:
L.W. Durban
105 S. Fifth Street, Philadelphia, PA
1877 – Fourth Edition
This 102 page catalog, the fourth from L. W. Durbin, a Philadelphia stamp dealer, contains thousands listings and prices for US and worldwide stamps, sets and packets. This 1878 edition is the first Durbin list to include engravings of hundreds of the stamps available rather than just listings. Many from countries that are now but distant memories. Catalog is complete and tight. As expected for its age there is some edge damage.
The price of a US #47 Black was $1.00 in 1878.
