re: Standard Postage Catalog 1905

Very interesting! I have that exact same catalog - olive green cover, size of a paperback book but with hardcover, only an inch thick. In 1928 the world catalog was the size of a typical hardback best seller and the US Specialized (only in its 5th edition) was the size of a Nintendo DSi (a little bigger than an iPhone). In 1945 the US Specialized was as big as the 28 World and the 45 world catalog was as thick as a dictionary. 1905, 1928, and 1945 are the only world catalogs I have. For US Specialized I have 1928, 1945, 1959, 1972, 1990, and 2008 (plus 2011 that I'm currently working out of).
