The Precancel Stamp Society (PSS) is pleased to provide another free set of album pages——Printed Dated Precancel Type Album. These pages exactly match The PSS Printed Dated Type Precancel Catalog, 2004 edition, as currently printed and adjusted for changes published in The Precancel Forum.
There is space for a printed dated precancel type from every town. There are spaces for the 635 different items and additional spaces for 7 pages of varieties. It also includes 4 pages with blank spaces for any additional items that you may want to include. The pages have been formatted with an attractive border and offset for hole punching on the left side. A box is shown for each type from each town, and all the types from each town are grouped together.
The official PSS type designations for printed dated controls are shown below the boxes. Inside each box is a image of the dated control or you can obtain the PSS Printed Dated Type Precancel Catalog, which is described at the end of this article and which includes prices and detailed information for each type. We recommend experimenting and only printing several pages just to make sure that your printer is set up correctly.
There are many small differences in the way printers produce a page, and you may want to slightly reduce the pages by perhaps 2% if the page borders are clipped. Similarly, some three-hole punches are overly aggressive and place the holes too close to the left border. So it is worthwhile to experiment a bit.
To distinguish the Printed Dated types and determine the prices, you will need the PSS Printed Dated Type Precancel Catalog, which you can order from PSS Catalogs HERE.
