The next book Railway Station Press will publish is a collectors catalog to the pocket size books that Mouse Book Club LLC of Chicago, Illinois has been publishing in the last three years. Our Mouse Book Collector: 2019 Edition will be printed in color with about 64 pages, and each Mouse Book will be featured on its own page; with a color image of the cover, detailed information about number printed, number of pages, year issued, and availability. Many of the early Mouse Books have already sold out. Others are numbered limited editions. You can see and purchase Mouse Books at www.mousebookclub.com.

This 2019 Special Edition will be limited to 100 copies, signed by the author and numbered (see below). This catalog will become a collectors item in the future. The 2020 Edition will not be limited.

The 2019 Edition is also offered as a “Trade Edition” for a discounted price of $12. This version will have a different color cover and some of them will be donated to libraries and bookstores.

Railway Station Press is not affiliated with the Mouse Book Club. We expect to publish a new and updated collectors catalog each year that will include the new Mouse Books and status updates on the old ones. Our Kickstarter campaign is HERE.

The sequel to the American Art Stamp Album is one of the next books Railway Station Press will publish. The Kickstarter campaign began on Bastille Day, the 14th of July and sold 40% of the Limited Edition of 100 books with all of the stamps included the first day. Look for the link to the campaign HERE.

The Basic Stamp Album is now available for purchase. It sells for $18 with $4 first class shipping in the US, $15 for Canada, and $22 for the rest of the world. The book contains the first three stamps and it is up to you to find the other 38 stamps to complete the album. These books are spiral bound so that you can lay the book flat while you work on your stamp album. Go to Books for Sale page for more details.

Wayne Youngblood has written an excellent review of this stamp album which appears on pages 63 and 64 of the March/April 2019 issue of Topical Time, the magazine of the American Topical Association.

I am now transcribing my father’s letters and preparing the first volume of his letters, “Letters From the Alcan Highway by Captain Stuart V. Bradley” using excerpts of 150 letters he wrote my mother during 1942 and 1943 in British Columbia while the 95th was building the Alcan (Alaska) Highway.

Update: An excellent history of the Black 93rd Engineer Regiment, which built the part of the Alcan Highway in the Yukon Territory, has been written by Christine & Dennis McClure called “We Fought the Road” just published in October. I am enjoying the book very much. It can be found HERE at their website.

Railway Station Press is growing.  We have incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia, we will seek to Trademark our press logo, and we have a list of ten book projects that we will be working on.  We have published three books each year.  But we need working capital up front to make this happen.  This is your opportunity to get in on the ground floor and help us do that!
