     The first book published (issued March, 2000) in the Worldwide-Postal-Rates.com series, but definitely not a "first effort". With data gathered by Canadian postal rate expert Dr. Robert C. Smith and organized by Anthony S. Wawrukiewicz, the U.S. rate expert, this book is extraordinarily useful.

     In 54 pages, this publication presents the vast majority of postal rates that a collector is likely to encounter. Organized in such a way that all necessary information to "rate a cover" is found on a single page, even if you do not know if the cover contained a "letter" or "printed papers". This book makes quick work of looking up covers' rates.

     Contained in a sturdy, but attractive looseleaf binder, revised-edition page sets will be made available when appropriate -- to registered owners, at a reduced price. The binder approach is also useful as it provides a single location to store all related paperwork.

     Examples of covers are illustrated throughout the book to point out typical features and appearance of various rate covers.
