I don’t know where you find so many good ones.

Some more recent additions:

My daughter, not knowing there were 3 volumes in the set, bought me the first 2 volumes about a year ago. I’ve been trying to find a reasonably priced volume 3 ever since, because most sellers want as much for a single volume as you can buy the entire set for. I finally succeeded though.

I got these 2 bound complete year sets of The American Philatelist for only $1 each, plus $5 to ship them both. I thought that was a pretty good deal!

Austria Netto Catalogue, 1982. A good general catalogue, with an impressive focus on Austrian plate varieties up to about 1950. Includes Bosnia, and also Germany, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, and Europas.

Rummaging around in my library, I found this one misplaced in the Latin section. 191 nicely-illustrated pages with lots of data. It doesn't even look familiar to me, but there it is. From the notation inside the cover, I got it at King's, and the price was right. I don't have any of these, but the field seems interesting enough.
