Maybe easiest to communicate directly - am I allowed to send my email address? is there a personal message option?

I don't have easy access to my stamps at the moment but I'm sure I could help.

I am still missing 13 names from the second series. Is there anybody who can help?

I've seen the 'Personality' stamps and have been slowly collecting them over time but I've never seen the descriptions before.
I have a list of all the names that I know of (from 2 sets) but I wonder if anyone has transcribed the text from the descriptions?

Here is the album that I mentioned previously. Of the 3 official albums this is the most expensive one in Royal Blue with Gold blocking. As luck would have it, having looked through it for the first time in quite a while I discovered that, what I thought was a part set of the first series, was actually most of the second series. I think I may be missing about 6 stamps of the second series.

Much to my surprise, and seemingly little known, there was actually a second series of these stamps issued. Intended to consist of a further 144 stamps with 12 stamps per sheet, only 8 sheets were issued. So, there are a further 96. I B Redguy, a Cinderella dealer and sometime member of this forum, shows many of these on his website, along with the first series so scroll down, and you can view them here:

Here is a link to a very informative website. It even lists the make up of each sheet:

I forgot I had this item so I'm adding it here. The page is taken from one of the albums but someone has added the signature of Lord Roberts (FM for Field Marshal) from a letter. Even if it is some kind of autopen signature it is still a nice addition:
