ENCYCLOPÆDIA OF THE MALTESE CROSS CANCELLATIONS OF

GREAT BRITAIN AND IRELAND, VOLUME 2

Prof. S. David Rockoff and Mike Jackson

* * Winner (with Volume 1) of the LITERATURE FIELD AWARD from the Great Britain Philatelic Society and the HEINZ RECK LITERATURE PRIZE from the Forschungsgemeinschaft Großbritannien * *

This book — the second of a multi-volume work — provides a reference to the history and use of the first obliterator of the world’s first postage stamps. It includes details of the Maltese Crosses from over one hundred post towns, arranged alphabetically from M to Y. Also included are two new tabulations that readers should find both interesting and potentially exciting. The first is a table entitled ‘Maltese Crosses Needing Verification’ in which examples are presented from offices where there is currently not enough information to warrant a chapter as part of the main Encyclopaedia. Also presented is a table of ‘Maltese Crosses of Unknown Origin’; these are crosses of interest but, since they are off cover, it is not known where they were applied. Profusely illustrated throughout, this Encyclopaedia is one of the most comprehensive works of its

kind ever published.
