Over the last few years since this catalogue was produced there are other websites in the Perfin world which have sprung up on the internet, they contain a lot of this information.
Not only have these new websites copied their information from the Perfin Society website, but they state that it is their own work.
I would not recommend using them as their information in many cases is incorrect and out of date, also the images that they portray are not true to scale.
One thing that you can rest assured about is the fact that the Perfin Society website is updated every few months to cover any new information that has been reported.
It is a great pity that there are such unscrupulous people in the stamp world, but unfortunately this is a fact of life.
