The J.B. Catalogue of Malta Stamps and Postal History is Malta's leading stamp catalogue. It was first published in 1984 and is published bi-annually by Joseph Buttigieg of Sliema Stamp Shop. It is currently in its twenty-second edition (2014). The catalogue originally used the SG numbering system, but from the early 1990s it had separate numbering. It is in English and the prices were denominated in Maltese pounds until 2006, and euros from 2008.
The twentieth edition (2010) was awarded the Silver-Bronze Medal in Phila Nippon '11 Japan World Stamp Exhibition, which held in Yokohama between 28 July and 2 August 2011, and the twenty first edition (2012) was awarded the silver medal in the Australia 2013 FIP World Stamp Exhibition, which was held at the Royal Exhibition Building in Melbourne between 10 and 15 May 2013.
