Dear Friend Collector, The USA Specialized Checklist of the American Culture Issues 1995-2003 will give you the opportunity to make an in-depth study for your collection and gives you an orderly need-list. I made this checklist for my own collection. I used the Scott Specialized Catalogue of United States Stamps & Covers, open (internet) sources and own research. The list is absolutely not complete and may have some minor errors or mistakes. I hope you will help me to share your knowledge to improve the checklist. Happy Collecting, Hans van Gils Member of the Dutch philatelic society USCA
