Articles, Books and Other Reference
Materials
The Middle East Philatelic Bulletin has many articles about this region, including the Aden, Yemen, and the Arab Gulf region. (Note: Subscribing is free.) Philatelic
Literature Review, issued by the American
Philatelic Research Library, is another useful source. The Postal
Stationery Society is a good source for information
about postal stationery, especially useful if you live in Great
Britain. My thanks also to The
Postal Stationery Society of Australia for the Ed
Druce articles concerning the postal stationery of Aden. The addresses
for The Dhow and for the ONEPS journal, The Levant,
are available on the Arab
Gulf and Yemen Philatelic Resource Page. Please consider

Japanese government to use the images of the Imperial couple.
