"Saint Vincent, with Notes and Publishers' Prices" by Francis H. Napier and E. D. Bacon is a philatelic handbook written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on the postage stamps of St. Vincent, providing collectors with detailed descriptions, historical context, and the prices associated with various stamp issues. The authors aim to simplify the complexities surrounding stamp perforation and classification, making it a valuable resource for philatelists. The opening of the handbook presents an introduction to the historical significance of philately, particularly regarding St. Vincent stamps, which were first issued in 1861. The authors acknowledge the challenges faced by collectors in classifying the stamps due to variations in perforation and color. They emphasize the importance of accurate records from manufacturers and provide insights into the methodology behind their categorization efforts, which aim to reduce confusion in the existing literature on the subject. Essentially, the beginning sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration of St. Vincent's stamps, highlighting their uniqueness and the systematic approach taken by the authors in documenting them.
