When purchasing stamps for my collection in the UK I often find that the numbers quoted are from the Stanley Gibbons catalogue1. As I have a more specialised collection of New Zealand stamps I generally use the Campbell Paterson catalogue2 which is much more detailed. Relating the issues between the two can be slow and rather difficult, especially if away from home. To assist with this I have created a cross reference document to convert both ways. If you would also find it helpful then please feel free to download a copy.
