> but have no clue which catalogue(s) to get. Help? Also, the collection I have has stamps from almost every country extant at the time it was aggregated. Is there a universal catalogue(sorry if dumb) or would I have to get separate ones for each country?
Different countries have companies who produce catalogs for their region. For example, in the US the primary reference is Scotts, whereas in the UK its Stanley Gibbons and in Europe its Michel. I'm not sure about India, try seeing if there is a local stamp club that can help you.
There are different types of catalogs Generally there is a world-wide set that covers all existing and former stamp issuing countries in some detail. Then many publishers will have specialized catalogs that target single countries in greater detail (for example Scotts US Specialized.
New catalogs are very expensive, however you can find older catalogs sold online for a lot cheaper.
Also, the Philatelic Society Of India may be of help to you.
It's probably best to start with a stamp stock book like this http://www.amazon.com/Lighthouse-Hardcover-Stamp-Album-Stockbook/dp/B002W5ZHUE/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1454053986&sr=8-2&keywords=stamp+stockbook
You can rearrange the stamps whichever way you want without hinges / mounts.
There are cheaper ones (and other colors) as well on Amazon, but the one I linked to is good quality.
I'm paranoid that stuff might fall out so I use a zippered 3 ring binder. Something (but not exactly) like this.
