1950 U.P.U. Presentation Book, held in Berne, Switzerland and containing mint never hinged stamps from a wealth of different countries, sorted alphabetically by the country name in French. We counted about 620 different stamps or souvenir sheets, some being both perforated and imperforate. Appears to be missing stamps from a few countries but mostly all there. Includes the common design types as well as other designs issued for this event. Scott catalogue value for all 313 common design types is $499, plus the others, to make up the total 620 stamps.
