Simply the best inventory software for your stamp collection.
SCDB Nostalgia
Over the years, The Stamp Collector's Data Base software has grown. Here is a look back at our long history.
1985 (Yes - 1985!) article in Linn's Stamp News - "Stamp Collectors Data Base a time saver" by Bill Sharpe. This was the first time The Stamp Collector's Data Base was ever reviewed. In 1985, the software ran as dBASE III application and you were required to own Aston-Tate's dBASE III (which cost over $400 back in 1985).
1988 article in The Compulatelist - "Software Review - Stamp Collectors Data Base Program". The Compulatelist was the quarterly newsletter of the Philatelic Computing Study Group of the APS. Unfortunately the group disbanded in 2007.
1991 article from The American Philatelist - "Does Your Collection Compute" by Steve McGourtney. In this article, you will find a list of software vendors for philatelic inventory software. To the best of our knowledge, ALL of the vendors listed are no longer around - except for us!
