Ingvar Pettersson was my friend, my partner and one of my most trusted advisors for almost 30 years...why writing the introduction to the auction sale catalogue of his philatelic estate is really a sad occasion for me. I met Ingvar when I first came to Geneva in 1973 and we became immediate friends. By 1979 he had become a major shareholder in David Feldman SA. Throughout the 1980’s and 1990’s and mainly thanks to Ingvar’s assistance and enthusiasm, the Company handled the auction sales of most of the great Scandinavian philatelic properties. During those years I was also a very close witness to the marvellous additions in both quality and quantity that he made to his own personal collections and holdings of this area. When we met in the early 1970’s he had already assembled more than one room full of stamps and collections including one of the most formidable collections of classic Finland besides a marvellous group of rare Iceland items including the famous Bible cover and no less than 5 skilling covers. He then added to his Sweden the main items from the Ahlstroem award winning collection and in the early 1990’s came the marvellous skilling covers from the Stone collection as well as the other classic issues. But all through those years he also accumulated and hoarded quantities of medium and smaller collections, lots and small estates. His joy was to open a new album or new box and simply discover and “play”......and most of the items he found, he placed neatly in mixed stockbooks or cards and kept them as “personal secrets”.....why it has been an amazing experience to open those books or leaf through the cards to rediscover one surprise after another ! Through the 1980’s as prices continued to rise he used to tell me ...”I can’t buy everything ....” but I reckon he did..... at least everything that he loved, for he had such a philatelic passion. But prices continued to rise and he would say “You know David, no tree grows to the sky....” and he was right. As we all know, prices came down dramatically in the 1990’s. But just like a new tree planted, the whole classic philately is growing again and Sweden is once again blossoming. It looks like the beginning of new cycle. This incredible estate gathered over 50 years of private accumulation no doubt provides an ideal opportunity at the appropriate moment to acquire for later reward. More thoughtfully, Ingvar’s steadfast lifetime endeavours will be even better acknowledged in the years to come. David Feldman, Geneva, July 2007

INGVAR PETTERSSON - A personal tribute Looking back over 25 years since, as a middle-aged trainee philatelist from England, arriving in Geneva to work with David Feldman at the end of 1981, I was immediately taken under the wing of this charming Swedish gentleman. His wit, his knowledge, his love of good food & wine & his generosity, won me over within days. His philatelic knowledge, particularly in his Scandinavian area, was awesome, his contacts legion and I was learning every day from someone who treated me as an equal, despite me being at least 50 years behind him in my philatelic knowledge. I learned more about philately from Ingvar than from anyone else in my life.

seventy seven, as an English speaker it is very hard to say “sju hundra sjuttio sju”!

At the office you could often find Ingvar and David in long conversations and with Ingvar´s knowledge, contacts and advice and David´s infectious enthusiasm, courage and flair they made a fantastic team.

At his home in Salsjöbaden, Stockholm, you would find Ingvar in his “strong room” it was a “treasure trove” and it was an honour to be allowed to go in and just ferret through the stockbooks and albums. The room was full of stamps & postal history from all over the world. He took care of every stamp with the same attention whether it was the stamp on the envelope that arrived in his mail box the same morning or the scarce item he had found from one of his philatelic friends. He had an incredible eye for unusual and scarce covers. He would never miss a box with old cards or letters in a flea market! He just loved his stamps!

Time spent with Ingvar was “fun” whatever one was doing. In the office, travelling, going to exhibitions or showing a major collection, Ingvar always introduced us to all his contacts & there was always time to see the sights. Whilst we were manning the stand at the Ausipex show in Melbourne in 1984, Ingvar suggested we take a trip to New Zealand while we were there. “You don’t go 10000 miles to Australia without taking the chance of popping over to New Zealand” he said to me when we were on the stand . (“Popping over” - a 5 hour flight each way!). So we popped off and even met “David Mac” at Roturoa airport - quite by accident - you should have seen David’s face! On the way back we met clients, 32 floors up, in the Furama Hotel in Hong Kong, ate on Victoria Peak, flew home via Bangkok where a load of passengers, making the short trip to Bombay, came on board with huge pieces of hand luggage. We shared the 3 seats with an Indian and his TV set! It was a great experience, no one day the same as another. Ingvar loved it! Just over the border in France - in Prevessin - Ingvar had a lovely house it was an open house and I will never forget the hospitality. The same at his beloved Lisö by the Baltic sea in summertime where Ingvar knew where to catch the best fish (I caught my biggest ever fish off Ingvar´s little island) the archipelago had no secrets for him, he would find the nicest spot or even the best restaurant! He was a real Swede in his heart but loved to travel, I think he almost visited the whole world! We had a couple of private “jokes” – he loved to fly in “Yumbo Yets” and we always greeted each other with “Heja Volvo”! In return, I still can´t pronounce the number “seven” in Swedish, Ingvar would roll around laughing at my attempts to say seven hundred & and

In 1997 he decided to return to Sweden, after 26 years abroad. At that time he was struck down with a string of problems which ended up with amputation of his legs. The man was magnificent in his time of trouble and never complained. His banter with the nurses and visitors, was that of a fit young man. It was not a “chore” to visit Ingvar in hospital, it was both a pleasure and humbling to see a great man still in control of his spirit! He did not deserve such a fate!

Reading this you may think of a “lucky” rich man - don’t be fooled, he was a self made man from modest beginnings who came to be one of the most respected philatelists of his generation. Ingvar had not only collected stamps since the age of 10 but he was a self made man and founded a major Swedish windscreen company called “Svenskt Bilglas”. He worked hard and deserved all the success he achieved. “They don’t make many like him anymore!”. I am honoured to have been his friend. One thing I have kept until the end, the word “integrity”, this Ingvar had in abundance. True to his word, he never let me down -me or anyone else I have ever met. This is Ingvar’s greatest legacy. John Cowell, Scotland, July 2007

INGVAR PETTERSSON - En personlig hyllning Under tidigt 50 tal blev Ingvar och jag bekanta och mycket goda vänner i Solna Filatelistförening. Och i föreningen fanns även en då mycket känd och skicklig filatelist och författare, nämligen Gustaf Gordon. Denna man blev mycket viktig för Ingvar och mig. Han bidrog till att vi lade grunden till våra kommande fina utställnings-samlingar.1960 ställde vi ut vid solna-klubbens utst. I stadshuset vid Haga Norra och följdes senare av framgångar Nationellt och Internationellt. Gustaf bidrog i hög grad till dessa framgångar med sin kännedom om just Ingvars intressen. Sverige Klassiskt för Ingvar och Tsar- Ryssland för mig. Vår över 50 åriga kontakt har gett oss båda framgångar och vår vänskap, hjälp och viktiga kontakter har varit framgångsrika inom bår filateli. ”Glas- Pelle” som Ingvar kallades i vänkretsarna, sålde sin bil-glas firma i Solna och flyttade till Frankrike på 70 talet och blev senare medarbetare i David Feldman, den internationellt stora välkända frimärks auktions firman i Schweiz. Där kommer nu bl.a. Ingvars prisbelönade ”kristall”-Collection and Estate att försäljas under hösten 2007. Ingvar Pettersson ett stort och välkänt namn inom Svensk filateli har nu lämnat oss, men lämnat till oss något stort och värdefullt att fortsätta glädjas och berika oss med. Tack Ingvar. P.A Erixon, Sweden, Juli 2007 INGVAR PETTERSSON - En personlig hyllning Med Ingvar som jag kände sedan 1970 talet blev jag nära bekant 1981. Han började avveckla sin framgångsrika verksamhet inom glasindustrin och kunde ägna sig alltmer åt filateli. Han var delägare i auktionsfirman David Feldman SA i Schweiz och bad mig att bli representant för de nordiska länderna. Några år tänkte jag hålla på men tack vare det alltid goda samarbetet med Ingvar lev det över 25 år. Ingvars filatelistiska kunskaper var imponerande och han var ett värdefullt stöd när jag fick ta hand om sällsynta och svårbedömda objekt. Han deltog i flera frimärksutställningar och fick höga utmärkelser för sina svenska och finska samlingar. Typiskt för Ingvar var att han inte framhävde sig själv. Han var snarare blygsam och tillbakadragen. Jag räknar Ingvar som en av mina bästa vänner. Det förekom aldrig några motsättningar. Det var positivt att få umgås och jag såg alltid fram mot de gånger vi skulle träffas. Sven Sandstedt, Sweden, Juli 2007

Ingvar Pettersson who has put together these fantastic collections was a passionate stamp collector of the “old school”. He bought over a period of more than 50 years on a large scale everything that pleased him in Swedish philately. In contrast to other Swedish collectors, he did not concentrate on one or two issues, but built extensive collections of Skilling Banco., Coat-of-Arms, Lion-type, Ringtype, Landstorm, 1920 Airs and large-type Official issues. These collections are all replete with quality and rare items. Most of the collection’s great franking rarities originate from three gold medal-winning collections: Ahlström, Josefsson and Stone. With the exception of a small portion of the estate having been shown in exhibitions, the large majority of the collections were up to now unknown, and I hope philatelists seize this opportunity to acquire these items, seldom- or never-seen on the market. It has been an honour for me as well as an unforgettable experience to work on these collections. Olle Pettersson, Stockholm, July 2007

Ingvar Pettersson som skapade dom här fantastiska samlingarna var en passionerad frimärkssamlare av den gamla skolan. Han köpte under mer än 50 år i stor skala allt på Sverige som föll honom i smaken. Till skillnad från andra svenska storsamlare koncentrerade han sig inte bara på några få emissioner utan byggde upp specialsamlingar på bl.a. Skill.Bco., Vapen, Lejon, Ringtyp, Landstorm, Luftpost 1920 och Stora Tjänste. Dessa samlingar inehåller alla en mängd utsökta och sällsynta objekt. De flesta av samlingens stora brevrariteter kommer främst från tre guld samlingar: Ahlström, Josefsson och Stone. Förutom en mindre del som visats på utställningar har samlingarna varit okända för oss svenskar och det är min förhoppning att philatelister tar tillfället i akt och förvärvar objekt som sällan eller aldrig förekommer på marknaden. Att bearbeta och katalogisera dessa samlingar har för mig varit en stor upplevelse och ett oförglömligt minne. Olle Pettersson, Stockholm, Juli 2007

Mr. Olle Pettersson, one of the most knowledgeable philatelists in Sweden today, has been our specialist advisor and expert in the preparation and presentation of this incredible “estate” for auction. All described items are therefore guaranteed by us as genuine under his expertise according to our standard conditions of sale.

Important Remark about gum: Full original gum on classic Swedish issues is rare and exceptional. It is not unusual to find stamps with part gum or partly redistributed original. We guarantee all our descriptions with respect to the originality of gum but cannot accept any reclamation on the grounds of redistributed original gum.

Important Remarks about gum Full original gum on classic Swedish issues is rare and exceptional. It is not unusual to find stamps with part gum or partly redistributed original gum. We guarantee all our descriptions with respect to the originality of gum but cannot accept any reclamation on the grounds of redistributed original gum. David Feldman SA

Sauf instructions spéciales de l'acheteur, l'envoi des lots s'effectue par la poste, la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. assure, de manière usuelle, la marchandise pour le transit.

1. LES LOTS SONT MIS EN VENTE

3.6 Facilités de paiement: La Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. accorde, selon sa libre appréciation, des facilités de paiement aux acheteurs. L'acheteur au bénéfice de telles facilités paie un montant minimum de 25% du montant total de la acture dès réception de celle-ci puis acquitte le solde encore dû en mensualités égales sur une période de 6 mois maximum. Un intérêt mensuel plus les frais encourus au taux de 1% sont perçus, à partir de la date de la vente, par la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. L'intérêt est débité chaque mois au compte du client. En cas d'octroi de facilités de paiement, la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. garde les lots adjugés jusqu'au paiement intégral des montants dus par l'acheteur, étant précisé que l'acheteur peut, en tout temps avant livraison, examiner la marchandise acquise auprès de la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Par ailleurs, l'acheteur perd tout droit de réclamation tel que prévu sous chiffre 4 ci-dessous, 30 jours après la date de la vente aux enchères.

1.1 Sur la base de leur présentation dans le catalogue et/ou sur le site internet: Les lots sont décrits avec le plus grand soin sans toutefois engager la responsabilité de la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Les photographies font partie intégrante des descriptions pour ce qui est des marges, de la dentelure, du centrage, des oblitérations et de toute autre qualité apparente. La description des lots mentionne si les pièces sont signées par des experts et/ou sont accompagnées de certificats d'expertise. 1.2 Sur la base de leur examen: Tous les lots peuvent être examinés, avant et pendant la vente dans nos bureaux ou à l’endroit de la vente, aux horaires indiqués dans le catalogue de vente ou sur notre site Internet. Les acheteurs ayant examiné les lots avant la vente et/ou y participant personnellement et/ou y étant représentés, sont censés avoir examiné tous les lots achetés et les accepter dans l'état où ils se trouvent lors de l'adjudication, indépendamment de la description figurant dans le catalogue. 2. LES OFFRES D'ENCHERES 2.1 Chaque offre d'enchère doit être supérieure à celle formulée précédemment selon l'échelle suivante: (la monnaie peut changer selon la vente. aux enchères) e 50 - 100 e 5 e 2000 - 5000 e 200 e 100 - 200 e 10 e 5000 - 10000 e 500 e 200 - 500 e 20 e 10000 - 20000 e 1000 e 500 - 1000 e 50 e 20000 - 50000 e 2000 e 1000 - 2000 e 100 e 50000 - 100000 e 5000 Les offres se situant entre ces montants seront arrondies à la surenchère supérieure. L'enchérisseur est lié par son offre tant qu'une nouvelle surenchère n'a pas été valablement formulée par un autre enchérisseur. 2.2 L'huissier ou le crieur a le droit d'avancer les enchères, de séparer, joindre ou retirer n'importe quel lot, cela à son entière discrétion. La vente a lieu en français mais les enchères pourront être répétées en anglais. La Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. est également autorisée à enchérir pour le compte de vendeurs lorsque des prix de réserve ont été fixés. Si le vendeur fixe des prix de réserve pour certains de ses lots, il sera alors considéré comme acheteur et la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. enchérira pour le compte de celui-ci jusqu'à concurrence des prix de réserve fixés. Lorsque le prix fixé par le vendeur n'est pas atteint, il sera passé à la criée du lot suivant par un simple coup de marteau. 2.3 Les offres d’enchères écrites reçues par David Feldman SA ou sur le site Internet avant la vente, sont dans tous les cas prioritaires sur les offres d'enchères faites dans la salle de vente. L'enchérisseur donnant un ordre d'enchères écrit peut faire des offres alternatives et/ou limiter le montant global de ses offres. Les offres d'enchères données "à acheter" sont considérées comme pouvant atteindre jusqu'à 10 fois la valeur de l'estimation imprimée dans le catalogue. Les enchères doivent être faites en euros. Les offres d'enchères libellées en d'autres monnaies seront converties en euros au cours du jour de leur réception par la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Toute offre écrite d'enchères est considérée comme liant son auteur pendant 60 jours après la date de la vente aux enchères. La Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. est donc en droit de facturer la marchandise à l'enchérisseur jusqu'à l'expiration de ce délai. Toute facture reçue par celui-ci est de ce fait valable et doit être payée immédiatement. 3. LA VENTE AUX ENCHERES 3.1 La vente en direct se déroule sous le contrôle de l’autorité compétente qui n’assume cependant aucune responsabilité. La vente aux enchères se déroule sous le ministère d'un "huissier judiciaire" de la République et Canton de Genève. La monnaie de la vente aux enchères est l'euro. 3.2 Prérogatives de David Feldman S.A.: La Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. est en droit selon sa libre appréciation de retirer, de diviser ou de grouper les lots faisant partie de la présente vente ainsi que de refuser l'adjudication de n'importe lequel desdits lots. La Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. se réserve le droit de refuser selon sa libre appréciation toute offre d'enchères et/ou l'entrée de la salle de vente à n'importe quelle personne quelle qu'elle soit. La Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. n’assume aucune responsabilité quelconque en cas de dommage corporel survenu sur les lieux de la vente. 3.3 Représentants et Agents de Vente aux Enchères: L’enchèrisseur qui agit pour le compte d’un tiers engage son entière responsabilité personelle en particulier en ce qui concerne toutes les obligations contractées dans le cadre de la présente vente. Cette responsabilité s’étend notamment à la verification de la qualité des lots achetés ainsi qu’au règlement ultérieur de la facture des lots acquis. 3.4 L’adjudication: Chaque lot est adjugé au plus offrant pour le compte de son vendeur respectif. Des frais de 19.5% sont facturés en sus du prix d'adjudication par David Feldman SA couvrant la commission, les taxes d'adjudication, frais par lot, assurance, emballage, frais de port, frais d'exportation etc. et ceci dans tous les cas, tous frais encourus ou pas. A la tombée du marteau, les profits et risques des lots ainsi adjugés passent à l'enchérisseur dont l'offre à été acceptée. La marchandise ne sera cependant remise à l'acquéreur qu'au moment du règlement intégral du prix d'achat (prix d'adjudication plus les frais). Exceptionnellement, pour les lots marqués d'un "#" à la fin de la description, ceux-ci sont particulièrement lourds et les frais de port sont facturés en sus et à prix coutant. Les acheteurs donnant des instructions particulières au sujet de l'expédition de leurs lots sont responsables pour leurs frais de port. TVA (Taxe à la vente) - Note indicative concernant les ventes aux enchères dont les lots se trouvent en Suisse: Les acheteurs domiciliés à l'étranger ne sont pas soumis à cette taxe, à condition que les marchandises soient exportées hors de Suisse. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. se fera un plaisir de s'occuper de l'exportation de ces marchandises. Les clients peuvent aussi faire cette exportation par leurs propres moyens; dans ce cas, ils doivent fournir à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. une attestation dûment signée et timbrée par les douanes suisses. Toute acquisition par des acheteurs désirant garder la marchandise en Suisse est soumise à la taxe TVA de 7.6% sur le prix d'achat en francs suisses, montant converti à l'équivalent en euros pendant la vente. 3.5 Paiement: Les adjudicataires présents sont tenus de payer comptant en euros le prix d'achat et la commission contre remise de la marchandise acquise. Le paiement en d’autres monnaies est accepté au cours du jour tel qu'établi par une des grandes banques suisses. Les enchérisseurs par correspondance auxquels un lot est adjugé ainsi que les adjudicataires présents auxquels la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. accorde l'autorisation expresse d'acquitter les montants dus après la vente, sont tenus de payer le prix

3.7 Droit de gage: Jusqu'au paiement intégral du montant dû, l'acheteur confère à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. un droit de gage sur la totalité des lots gardés par DAVID FELDMAN S.A., acquis avant, pendant et/ou après la présente vente aux enchères. Ce gage garantit le remboursement de tout montant dû en capital, intérêts, commissions et frais éventuels. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. est autorisée, mais non obligée, à réaliser les gages sans autres formalités et sans préavis si l'acquéreur est en demeure pour le paiement de sa dette ou l'exécution d'une obligation quelconque. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. pourra dans tous les cas réaliser les gages de gré à gré. A cet effet, elle n'est pas tenue d'observer les formalités prévues par la Loi fédérale sur la poursuite pour dette et faillite; DAVID FELDMAN S.A. est libre en outre d'introduire ou de continuer une poursuite ordinaire, sans avoir préalablement réalisé les gages et sans renoncer pour autant à ceux-ci. 4. GARANTIE 4.1 Etendue de la garantie: Sous réserve de l'article 4.3 ci-après, l'authenticité de toutes les pièces philatéliques vendues aux enchères est garantie pendant 30 jours à compter de la date de la vente aux enchères. Toute garantie de défaut ou autre garantie de quelque nature qu'elle soit est expressément exclue. Toute réclamation concernant l'authenticité doit être transmise à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. dès réception des lots, mais au plus tard dans les 30 jours à compter de la date de la vente aux enchères. Avant la livraison, qui peut intervenir après ce délai de 30 jours, les pièces philatéliques acquises peuvent être examinées auprès de DAVID FELDMAN S.A. L'acheteur dont la réclamation parvient à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. après ce délai de 30 jours à compter de la date de la vente aux enchères perd tout droit à la garantie. Sa réclamation ne sera pas prise en considération par DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Si un délai supplémentaire pour formuler une réclamation liée à l'authenticité d'une pièce philatélique s'avère nécessaire, la demande doit en être faite à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. dans le délai de 30 jours à compter de la date de la vente aux enchères. Aucune demande parvenue après ce délai de 30 jours à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. ne sera prise en considération. Les résultats de l'expertise pour laquelle un délai a été accordé doivent parvenir à DAVID FELDMAN S.A. dans les trois mois à compter de la date de la vente aux enchères. Un délai supplémentaire ne peut être accordé qu'avec l'accord écrit de DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Seules les réclamations, résultats d'expertise ou autres notifications parvenus dans les délais seront pris en considération par DAVID FELDMAN S.A. 4.2 Expertise ou contre-expertise: Lorsque l'authenticité d'un lot est contestée l'acheteur est tenu de produire un certificat d'expertise ou de contre-expertise émanant d'un expert qualifié justifiant sa réclamation. Si l'expert reconnu, assumant toute responsabilité en cas d'erreur, juge que le timbre a été falsifié, il peut le marquer en conséquence; les signes "FAUX" ou "FALSIFIE" ne constituent pas alors une altération du lot. En présence d'une telle réclamation la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. se réserve le droit de demander selon la libre appréciation une ou plusieurs expertises subséquentes dont les frais seront mis à charge du vendeur dans l'hypothèse où la réclamation de l'acheteur est fondée. Dans le cas contraire l'acheteur supportera tous les frais d'expertise encourus. Lorsque la réclamation est fondée, le lot est repris et le prix d'adjudication ainsi que la commission sont intégralement remboursés à l'acheteur. Dans le cas d'un paiement retardé dû à une expertise agréée par David Feldman S.A., des intérêts sont payables à 50% du taux habituel pour tout lot dont l'authenticité est confirmée. Si David Feldman S.A. n'est pas d'accord tous les intérêts seront dus. 4.3 Limites de la garantie: Les lots décrits comme collections, sélections ou groupes, ceux formés de doubles et d'accumulations, ne peuvent faire l'objet d'une réclamation quelconque. Les réclamations concernant les lots décrits comme série ou groupes de séries contenant plus d'un timbre, ne sont prises en considération dans les limites de l'article 4.1 ci-dessus que si elles portent sur plus d'un tiers de la valeur totale d'acquisition du lot. Les lots qui ont été examinés par l'acheteur ou son agent, ainsi que les lots qui sont décrits comme ayant des défauts ne peuvent faire l'objet d'aucune réclamation par rapport à ceux ci. Tout lot illustré ne peut du(des) lot(s) concerné(s) et/ou d'agir par toute voie de droit utile contre l'acquéreur afin d'obtenir le paiement des montants dus et/ou d'éventuels dommages-intérêtset/ou le remboursement de tous frais judiciaires. Des frais pou faire l'objet d'aucune réclamation au sujet de la perforation, du centrage, des marges ou tout autre élément visible dans l'illustration. 4.4 Paiement tardif: Si le paiement du prix d'achat et de la commission due par l'acheteur n'intervient pas dans les 30 jours à compter de la date de la vente aux enchères, la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. se réserve le droit d'annuler la vente et de disposer les paiements en souffrance d’au moins 5% dès le premier mois et 2% par mois supplémentaire. De plus, les dépenses encourues seront perçues sur toutes les sommes dues par l’acheteur 30 jours après la date de la vente aux enchères. Le débiteur défaillant perd en outre tout droit de réclamation. 4.5 Le prix d'adjudication pourra, exceptionellement, être ramené à la mise gagnante la plus basse s'il est établi qu'un enchérisseur a augmenté le prix par inadvertance en utilisant plus d'un moyen de miser. 5. DROIT APPLICABLE ET FOR COMPETENT La présente vente aux enchères ainsi que tous les rapports juridiques qui en découlent seront soumis au Droit suisse exclusivement. Toute action légale ou procédure concernant la vente aux enchères ainsi que les rapports juridiques qui en découlent seront soumis à la juridiction exclusive des tribunaux de Genève, sous réserve d'appel au Tribunal fédéral suisse à Lausanne. Dans tous les cas, la Maison DAVID FELDMAN S.A. se réserve le droit de poursuivre tout acheteur défaillant à son lieu de résidence, auquel cas le Droit Suisse reste applicable et dans les cas se rapportant à la valeur, l'euro est converti à son équivalent en francs suisses pendant la vente. 6. Toute transaction: Ces conditions sont applicables à toute transaction même en dehors des ventes aux enchères, avec David Feldman SA. e/07/2007

David Feldman SA - Conditions of Sale The currency of the auction is the Euro (e)

The bidder is bound by his offer until a higher bid has been validly accepted. 2.2 The Huissier Judiciaire together with DAVID FELDMAN S.A. have full discretion to refuse any bidding, to divide any lot or lots, to combine any two or more lots and to withdraw any lot or lots from the sale without any case giving any reason. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. may also bid on behalf of vendors in cases where reserve prices have been fixed. In these cases, the vendor is treated as a buyer and the auctioneer shall bid on his behalf up to reserve prices. If the reserve price fixed by the vendor is not reached the auctioeer passes to the next lot by a simple knock of the hammer. 2.3 Bid orders received by DAVID FELDMAN S.A. or on its website before the relative auctions have priority over room bids in the case of Live Room auctions. Clients giving bidding instructions to DAVID FELDMAN S.A. may make alternative offers and/or limit the total of their expenditure in advance. Bids marked "BUY" are considered as up to ten times the quoted estimate price where such exists. Bids made in other currencies than the advertised currency of the auction, will be converted into that currency at the market rate of the day of receipt by DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Bids are standing and hold good for at least 60 days from the auction period. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. reserves the right to invoice bidders up to the end of the 60 day period, payment being due immediately. 3.

DAVID FELDMAN S.A. cannot be held responsible for any physical accident that may occur on the premises where auctions take place. 3.3 Bidders' representatives and auction agents: Any person bidding for the account of a third party is fully liable for any obligation arising from such bidding. This responsibility is notably applicable for the verification of the condition and for the payment of bought lots 3.4 Adjudication: Each lot is sold on behalf of the respective owner to the highest bidder who becomes the buyer at the next highest bid step, which is the adjudication price. In addition to the adjudication price, the buyer pays an all-in fee of 19.5% to cover commission, charges and expenses including lotting fees, adjudication taxes, insurance, packing, mailing, export formalities etc. whether all incurred in particular cases or not. On the adjudication, liability for the lots passes to the bidder whose bids have been accepted. The lots are delivered to the buyer when the sale price (adjudication price plus all fees) have been paid in full Exceptionally lots marked "#" at the end of the description are heavy in weight and mailing expenses, charged at cost, are extra. Buyers who give special mailing instructions are responsible for their own mailing costs. TVA (Sales Tax) - Notes for guidance concerning auctions for which the lots are located in Switzerland: Buyers domiciled abroad are not liable for this tax once the goods are duly exported from Switzerland. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. are pleased to arrange this export; alternatively, clients may make their own arrangements and furnish DAVID FELDMAN S.A. with proof of export, stamped by Swiss customs. Any purchases by buyers who wish to keep their purchases in Switzerland will be liable to TVA at 7.6% of the purchase price in Swiss Francs at the converted Euro value during the auction. 3.5 Payment: Sale price plus commission are due for immediate payment as invoiced against delivery of the lots.

In these cases, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. keeps the adjudicated lots which

are delivered to the buyers on full settlement of their account. Delivery of the purchased lots by post or any other means if instructed by the buyer including cost of normal transit insurance cover is at the expense of the buyer. Title or ownership of the purchased lots, delivered or not, remains with the auctioneer on behalf of the seller until payment has been made in full. 3.6 Special extended payment facility: DAVID FELDMAN S.A. may offer a special extended payment facility for buyers. In these cases, the buyer may choose to pay a minimum of 25% of the total invoice immediately, and the balance over a maximum period of 6 months, paying an equal instalment at the end of each month. Interest plus charges of 1% is debited to the buyer's account at the end of each month from the auction date. When the special extended payment facility has been granted, the buyer understands that any claims regarding his purchases must be made within 30 days of the auction sale date, even though the lots may be held by DAVID FELDMAN S.A. awaiting full settlement of the account. Until delivery, all lots may be examined by their respective buyers at the offices of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. 3.7 Pledge: Until full settlement of the account, the buyer grants to DAVID FELDMAN S.A. a pledge on any and all properties held by DAVID FELDMAN S.A., acquired prior to, during and/or after any auction. This pledge secures the repayment of any amount due in principals, interests, commissions, costs and other possible fees. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. is entitled, but not obliged, to realise freely the pledge assets without further formalities and without previous notice if the buyer is in default with the payment of his debts or with the fulfilment of any other obligation hereunder. For this purpose, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. is not bound to comply with the formalities of the Federal Law dealing with actions for debt and bankruptcy proceedings; in addition, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. may choose to institute or go on with the usual proceedings without having beforehand sold the pledged goods and without having moreover given them up. 4. GUARANTEE 4.1 Extent of the guarantee: Subject to paragraph 4.3 below, the authenticity of all philatelic items sold in the auction is guaranteed for a period of 30 days from the auction date, with the express exclusion of any other fault(s). Any reclamation regarding authenticity must come to the notice of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. on the delivery of the lots but at the latest within 30 days from that date. Before delivery, which may take place after the 30 days period, the lots purchased may be examined at the Geneva offices of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. The buyer whose reclamation is made after 30 days from the auction date loses all rights to the guarantee. Such reclamation will not be valid by DAVID FELDMAN S.A.. If an extension of the period is required in order to substantiate the claim with an expertise, a request for such extension must be made to DAVID FELDMAN S.A. within 30 days of the auction date. No request for extension will be considered beyond this 30 days period. The results of the expertise for which an extension was agreed must come to the notice of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. within 3 months of the auction date. No further extension of the period will be considered without the express agreement in writing of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Only claims, expertise results or other details which are made within the agreed periods will be valid. 4.2 Expertise and counter-expertise: Should the authenticity of a lot be questioned, the buyer is obliged to provide an expertise or counter-expertise from a prominent expert in the field, justifying the claim. If a stamp is found by a recognised expert taking financial responsibility for errors to have been forged, he may mark it accordingly. Consequently, the marking "FALSCH" (forged) is not considered an alteration. In the case of such reclamation, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. reserves the right to request, at its own discretion, one or more further expertises. All expertise and relative charges accrue to the vendor's account in the case of a justified claim, or to the buyer's account if the claim is not justified. In the case of a justified claim, the lot is taken back and the adjudication price plus the commission are refunded to the buyer. In the case of delayed payment due to expertise agreed by David Feldman S.A., interest is charged at 50% the standard rate for all cleared lots. If David Feldman S.A. has not agreed then full interest is due. 4.3 Exclusions: Lots described as collections, accumulations, selections, groups and those containing duplicates, cannot be the subject of any claim. Claims concerning lots described as a set or groups of sets containing more than one stamp, can only be considered under the terms of paragraph 4.1 above if they relate to more than one third of the total value of the lot. Lots which have been examined by buyer or his agent, lots described as having defects or faults cannot be subjected to a claim regarding defects or faults.llustrated lots cannot be subjected to a claim because of perforations, centering, margins or other factors shown in the illustrations. 4.4 Late Payment: If the payment of the adjudicated price plus commission due by the buyer is not made within 30 days of the date of the auction, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. reserves the right to cancel the sale and dispose of the lot(s) elsewhere and/or to make a recourse to any legal proceedings in order to obtain payment of the amounts due as well as for any incurred damages and losses and any legal expenses. A charge on overdue payment of at least 5% for the first month and 2% per month afterwards plus expenses incurred is chargeable on any outstanding amount after 30 days of the date of the auction. The buyer who is in default in any way whatsoever has no right of claim under any circumstances. 4.5 Exceptionally, the adjudication price will be reduced to the lowest winning bid where it is shown that a buyer has inadvertently increased the price by using more than one medium of bidding. 5. APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION Unless otherwise stated, all auctions as well as any rights and obligations arising from them shall be governed exclusively by Swiss law. Any legal action or proceeding with respect to the auctions shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Geneva, subject to appeal to the Swiss Federal Court in Lausanne.In every case, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. shall also be entitled, at its discretion, to sue any buyer in default at his place of residence; in such case, Swiss law shall remain applicable and in the case of issues regarding price value, the Euro is converted at its Swiss franc value at the time of the auction. 6. All Transactions: These conditions apply to all transactions of every kind including those outside the auctions, with David Feldman SA

At David Feldman, RESULTS MATTER This catalogue is typical of the presentation, preparation and philatelic knowledge we bring to EVERY property consigned to us for sale through our semi-annual auctions. Our knowledgable staff of philatelists and other specialists work to create a true “labour of love” which showcases in an appropriate manner EVERY rarity, specialised collection and large lot, based on over 40 years’ experience in the philatelic marketplace.

The “Crown Jewel” of Philately, the famous “Bordeaux Cover,” franked by the complete 1847 “Post Office” issue of Mauritius, sold through our auctions in 1993 for US $5 million — the all-time world’s record for ANY philatelic item!

If YOU have a property which may be for sale in the future, it will literally pay you to contact us. Every auction company trumpets “high prices,” but we have set - and hold - world record prices in every area of philately, from individual rarities to large lots. If you want to be sure of obtaining a great result for your great philatelic property, do not hesitate to let us get to work for you. Our auction series each Spring and Autumn each feature a separate catalogue of Rarities (often including highly specialised collections offered intact), large lots and estates, plus stamps and postal history from the world over, with separate specialised auction catalogues as warranted. Items for inclusion in our Autumn auctions must reach us by late June, and for our Spring auctions by mid-January. We can arrange to meet your at your home or office, as our staff travels extensively and we have representatives in 25 countries, on every continent, world-wide. If results matter to you (and we are sure that they do), call or write to us so that we can begin to work together, as your “reliable partner,” towards the intelligent presentation and promotion of your collection, exhibit or other holding.
