A Philatelic Bibliography for Yemen and the Arab Gulf States

Articles, Books and Other Reference Materials

Many of the back issues of Stamp Lover, which is put out by Britain's National Philatelic Society, list titles of articles from the various magazines and journals that the Stamp Lover indexes. 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, for the Arabian Gulf States Postal History and Stamps Quarterly, for the OPAL Journal and for the ONEPS journal, The Levant, are available on the Arab Gulf and Yemen Philatelic Resource Page. Please consider supporting these journals and societies with your memberships, subscriptions and articles. My thanks to M.A. Alhajeri, R.H. Courtney, J. Duester, J. Gilham, M.A.M. Graham, J. Hart, T. Johansen, T. Jones, K. al-Omaira, M. Wozniak, and M.J. Zahedi for their suggestions, additions and corrections. If you have any suggestions, questions or comments, please email me.

The sense that I get from the two articles is that the postal authority (actually the Stolows) did not ask for permission from the Japanese government to use the images of the Imperial couple.
