Dr.Taizo Maeda, the master of DPR Korea(North Korea)'s philately spurred me to publish a new edition of Korean stamps. About 5 years ago, I have published a monochrome catalogue The Greatest State,
but this time, he suggested to publish it in CD-ROM and I think it is a very good idea.
He also suggested me that "The catalogue must be written in English".. I decided to make a complete database of stamps, FDCs, stationery and booklets after the economic blockade against DPR Korea_in full colour. I have started preparing the catalogue. Please have a look at http://www1.linkclub.or.jp/~tzdr/dprkpage001.html.
My catalogue lists not only stamps but FDCs, cancellations, stationery and data of designers also. I wish if I could make a catalogue better than MICHEL in the future...
CD-Rs are sold in a very low price today, I can offer one catalogue in less than $5.00. As DPR Korea use their own "Juche" calendar, I am planning to make a catalogue up to Juche 100(A.D.2011) for a start.
I received a cover of Frame-stamps from a friend whom I met at mixi SNS.
I don't know a lot about Beatles but love Rock music very much. An FDC of DPR Korea(North Korea), New year's stamp of Juche96(A.D.2007), after the economic blockade(imperf.).
Very rare... As for the Hakoniwa R.A. netgame, the whole island is ruined by missiles but I succeeded in launching an artificial satellite again.

I received a mail from my German friend who was transferred to Edinburgh. He told me that he has to study for PhD and furthermore, needs help in the Japanese language. This is the brief explanation of Kanji, Hiragana and katakana I made very quickly for him.
We used to have a sound of "yi" till the end of the Heian era but don't have now. As for the Hakoniwa R.A. netgame, I have launched an artificial satellite.

The tax rate is 8% now. I've just received a new lot of North Korean stamps after the economic blockade.
Scott once listed a part of DPR Korea's stamps but I don't know how this will work in the new edition. I've bought J-O of 2005 edition.
The first Kumgang was classified in its own way but the 2005 edition does not mention that reprints of these stamps have gum.
The varieties of "Anniversary of liberation from Japan" are listed.
The 2005 edition lists the stamps up to 1982 but the "Birth of Prince William of Wales" overprints are insufficient in their classification.
It has to list both blue and gold overprints on perf. and imperf., both blue and gold overprints on miniature sheets and souvenir sheets. This is the complete collection of mine. Click to enlarge.
