Minnesota Diversified Industries (MDI) will begin shipping supplies of the 2014 Stamp Yearbook and The Postal Service Guide to U.S. Stamps — 41st Edition to designated Post Office locations by late November. Quantities sent to each unit are based upon past sales. The new stamp guide should be made available for sale upon receipt but the new stamp yearbook cannot be sold until December 10, 2014, which is the first-day-of-issue of the Circus Souvenir Sheet that is packaged with the other commemorative stamps with the actual book.
POS ONE offices must reflect stamp yearbooks and stamp guides along with all philatelic products in Retail Floor Stock to ensure inventory detection and accurate replenishment. Failure to do so will trigger additional shipments of unwanted products causing unnecessary accountability inflation.
Offices will receive hang tags for both the Yearbook and the Postal Guide with their initial shipment for placement on slat walls. The 2013 Stamp Yearbook can be removed from display once your new 2014 book arrives; however, the 2013 Yearbook may still be sold until officially withdrawn from sale.
Ordering Instructions for All Other Post Offices
Offices not receiving automatic shipments of the 2014 Stamp Yearbook (Item #991400) and The Postal Service Guide to U.S. Stamps — 41st Edition (Item #891400), can order the books from SFS Web at https://sfsweb.usps.gov. Sales of the stamp yearbook and stamp guide must be reported in AIC 092, Philatelic Product Sales.
The Postal Service Guide to U.S. Stamps — 40th Edition (Last Year’s Edition)
As the 41st edition of The Postal Service Guide to U.S. Stamps becomes available, Post Offices must withhold all remaining copies of the 40th edition (Item #891300) from sale. Actions should be taken as described below:
n Retail Outlets. Collect remaining copies of the 40th edition of the guide from stamp credits and immediately return them to main stock using PS Form 17, Stamp Requisition/Stamp Return.
n Post Offices. Consolidate all remaining copies of the 40th edition of the guide, if any, into the unit reserve stock. Prepare all 40th editions of the guide in accordance with procedures established for disposing of obsolete and redeemed stock, and submit according to local district quarterly stamp destruction or return schedules.
n Local Office Philatelic Programs. Submit PS Form 17 to Stamp Fulfillment Services for the number of 40th editions of the guide (Item #891300) needed for philatelic/promotional programs. One or more copies may be donated to local schools, libraries, student groups, stamp clubs, and retirement homes.
n Stamp Fulfilment Services. Stamp all copies of the guide used in promoting philatelic programs NOT FOR RESALE. The SFS custodian of accountable paper must verify that each item is stamped and prepared using PS Form 17, endorsed as PHILATELIC PRODUCTS GIVEN TO PHILATELIC PROGRAMS. Program coordinators must acknowledge receipt of Item #891300 and be responsible for its control.
Note: The instructions for providing obsolete editions of the guide for philatelic and promotional purposes are an exception to general guidelines for destruction of accountable items, especially regarding obsolete (withdrawn from sale) items. In this instance, it is Postal Service policy not to destroy copies of the previous year’s edition of the guide when they can be used for valid promotional and/or educational purposes.
Disposition of Excess Guides
Dispose of all remaining copies of the 40th edition of The Postal Service Guide to U.S. Stamps (Item #891300) in accordance with Handbook F-1, Accounting and Reporting Policy, part 4-11.6, Destruction of Stamps. Because disposition instructions are issued annually for past issues of the guide, your office should have only the new 41st edition in inventory after completing the above procedures. If previous editions are on hand, dispose of them immediately, in accordance with Handbook F-1, 4-11.6.
