Tear Sheet List

Great Britain and the Empire

For other Countries Please see WPL

One policy of the Friends of the Western Philatelic Library is to inform members about the availability of duplicate material. One such service is the extraction of 'tear sheets' from various journals. These are pages on a single subject area extracted from journals, newspapers, pamphlets, etc., going back many years. Tear sheets are loaded with information. Wherever possible pages from several sources on the same subject are combined to provide comprehensive coverage of the subject, such as when an article is augmented or refuted by a letter-to-the-editor, or subsequent articles on the same subject appear in the same or separate sources. Some of these sheets are from the original journal printings, where possible, otherwise they are photo copies. The compiling of these sheets is done by volunteers and the cost charged is set to cover copying costs only. Any surplus funds received from sales help with operational expenses and toward acquisitions for the WPL which it could not otherwise obtain. WPL has published lists of tear sheets for years in its newsletter, The Bay Phil, usually alternating U.S. subjects and foreign lists in every other issue. This is the first time all the lists for the past four years have been brought together into a coordinated publication for easy searching of specialized subjects. This is one of the cheapest ways for researchers to search specific areas covering many years past. Good hunting!

Suggestion: as this is a large file and will not be changed frequently we suggest that once you have it downloaded you copy it to your hard disk or to a floppy for convenient access in the future.
