Our books are arranged in five different grades, which will suit all classes of collectors from the Beginner to the Specialist. All sorts of stamps; all kinds of prices; but only one result to you--SATISFACTION. Ask for circular describing our Selections or send commercial reference for a trial selection. * * * * * MARKS STAMP CO. The House of Stamp Bargains TORONTO CANADA Approval Department ¶ Special attention is paid to the Approval Department of my business, which is under my personal supervision. ¶ The most satisfactory manner in which to purchase stamps is from approval books when the collector has the opportunity of inspecting the specimens at his leisure. My stamps are all arranged in books by countries, mounted and arranged according to the latest edition of Scott's catalogue. Above each stamp the catalogue number and price is plainly shown and below my net selling price is marked. ¶ These books contain unused and used stamps, several copies of the same variety being included wherever possible so that the collector has ample choice. All minor varieties of shades, watermarks, perforation, etc., are included as well as occasional pairs and blocks of four. Prices are most reasonable and average about half catalogue. As most of these books are of considerable value they can only be sent to collectors well known to me or to those supplying first class references. Specialists ¶ A cordial invitation is extended to all advanced collectors and specialists to acquaint me of their special countries. I continually have rare and out-of-the-way items in stock and shall be glad to send particulars of these to interested clients. B. W. H. POOLE 312 Washington Building, LOS ANGELES, CAL.
