Look at the various listings of type sets. I'm not familiar with the Lange publication but being familiar with the author I think it would cover...
Since I don't collect any of the SL issues and therefore not familiar with their appearance it would be helpful if you'd point out the keys to...
Very good reference. And on glossy paper so the images are clear. I've got both the 1st and 2nd edition.

I've seen many requests for a coin's thickness to help in it's ID. I've always ignored the question until it suddenly occurred to me, "How DO you...

Silver and sulfur REALLY like each other. And the resulting silver sulfide is black. That's why housewives spend hours removing tarnish from their...
