The Bailiwick of Jersey is a British Crown Dependency off the coast of Normandy, France. As well as the island of Jersey itself, the bailiwick includes two groups of small islands that are no longer permanently inhabited, the Minquiers and Écréhous, and the Pierres de Lecq and other rocks and reefs. Jersey and the Bailiwick of Guernsey are often referred to as 'the Channel Islands' but they are not a constitutional or political unit. The three Crown Dependencies of Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of man each has a separate relationship to the British Crown. They are not part of the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom is constitutionally responsible for the defence of Jersey. Jersey is not a part of the European Union but has a special relationship with it, being treated as part of the European Community for the purposes of free trade in goods.

Lou wrote: For 25 years the Ids and scans on the sites for Stamp Show 2000 were incomplete.

Recently, I finally got around to putting these on Vario pages and then checked Scott and the sites as I usually do. When I tried to put Scott #s to my sheets and booklet panes I had one left over--unnumbered. I went back to the Scott listings and finally figured out what had happened. The sheet on the sites with #950g is actually #950b. The catalog for #950b just reads: "Souvenir sheet...",, for #950g it reads: "As b with London Stamp Show 2000 emblem added in sheet margin". Since there was no mention of an emblem on b, and not having the g sheet, the b was ld as g on the sites. The other scan on the site is a booklet pane, not noted.

There are actually two s/s and five prestige booklet panes for this issue.

The Royal Legacy of Queen Victoria - King George VI

Inside #???? (90): Stamps Collecting

George VI, great grandson to Queen Victoria, came to the throne on 11 December 1936, following the abdication of his brother King Edward VIII. He reigned as King of the United Kingdom and the Dominions of the British Commonwealth until his death in 1952.

Six stamps form the fourth installment in the series The Royal Legacy of Queen Victoria and feature photographs taken during the King’s reign. Presented chronologically, they include an image of the King making his famous speech inaugurating the Empire Exhibition and another more relaxed image of the King perusing his stamp collection.

Thanks to Michael Merritt and Martin Hirschbühl
