My name is Eric Yendall. I have been collecting stamps from a very young age and began focusing on King George Sixth definitives over thirty years ago. My specialized interests include the large keyplates of Bermuda, Leeward Islands and Nyasaland and the same design revenue stamps of the Malayan area, East Africa, and Ceylon; the 10/- "badge" issue of Grenada; and the 5/- "isle of wood and water" definitive stamp of Jamaica. In addition I maintain KGVI postal stationery collections of Mauritius, British Guiana, British Honduras, Leeward Islands and Grenada; World War II censorship studies of British Guiana, British Honduras and Mauritius; and a general used colonial definitives collection. Questions on these or any other aspects of King George Sixth philately are always welcome.
