I am sorry if this has been covered before.

The two images show the UK issues of this catalogue.

7/164/450

7/764/450 UK 72550/02

I have seen several other versions of this catalogue but would like to complete the list. Can anyone help?

72550/02 UK 7/764/450

72550/06 English NP 7/364/10

72550/07 Australia 7/364/100

72550/49 Portugal 7/364/2

I think there could be over 50 different versions altogether as other literature in the early 1960s had similar reference numbers. I have scanned paperwork from all over the world (e.g. Hong Kong, India, Jamaica(!), Aden......) and would like to fill in all the other numbers

You are possibly quite correct in that there must have been at least 50 different editions of this catalogue which means there are still 37 country editions to locate plus one more if there was in fact a Number 50!

Incidentally for anyone interested I have a spare copy of the New Zealand catalogue for sale in fine condition.
