THE "QUED KIRIK" COLLECTION Used items were selected for small-town cancels, which may appear duplicated , but which vary according to printings, shades , etc. , as listed in such specialized catalogues as Stanley Gibbons , Five Reign s, Michel , etc. 2. Where used stamps were not available , mint stamps were added to complete sets. 3. Used stamps are invariably underpriced , particularl y of the smaller Colonies . Scott prices for Labuan and North Borneo are for "cancelled to order " sta mps but almost all stamps in this collection do not fall into this category . 4. In the various studies, many recent discoveries are included which could well be offered separately but this would detract from the completeness of the studies. 1.
