What a beautiful publication! Amazing that so few stamps can be presented
in such an attractive way. That should give some ideas to other collectors.
I didn't know that Remington was connected with Wyoming; in my mind I had
placed him further south.
I was wondering whether the original articles (without illustrations) would
be available on the internet, or whether Nicolaysen Museum has reserved sole
rights to (re)publication.
