NEW YORK

WHERE THERE'S

A WILL,

THERE'S A WAY! Planning for the future, even the ultimate future, is a sign of an intelligent mind. Today, more than ever, life insurance is an essential part of man's existence - it is the proof of security for the future well - being of loved ones, in the event of your death.

But have you guarded against every eventuality? Will your stamps be "given away" through lack of information being available to your Executors?

A letter received reminded us of this possibility. The writer states:

" This acknowledges receipt of your check for final settlement of my Yery small property, which you handled as well as a big one.

I want you to know that your name is attached to my albums which my son will bring to you in time to come."

This is a wise procedure but an even wiser one is to add a codicil to your will. A typical form of wording is:

"I direct my Executor (s) to employ the serYices of H. R. Harmer, Inc. ", now of New York City, to appraise* for tax purposes my postage stamp collection and at such time as my Executor(s) sell my postage stamp collection to aYail themselYes again of the serYices of H. R. Harmer, Inc. This slight precaution will ensure that this portion of your Estate will be handled effectively and that the beneficiaries will receive the very maximum for it.

*Such appraisals are free if instructions to sell the collection are giYen to H. R. Harmer, Inc. within 12 months.

THE BEST PRICE FOR YOUR

STAMPS

- - FOR YOU It is patent that many collectors who have substantial holdings-and who may have been inactive in recent years-are by no means aware of the great strength of the philatelic market today. (This has been borne out on both sides of the Alantic when collections have been sent to us with insurance estimates considerably below current values.)

This has not infrequently meant that they have sold their stamps below, sometimes far below, the open market value . When these sta mps later appear in auction and they see the prices realized they are naturally displeased and disappointed-but by then it is too late .

This dilemma is of course avoidable by the simple, inexpensive and sure method of sale by Auction or Private Treaty through the H. R. Harmer Organization in New York, London or Sydney. Your interest and ours are obviously the same-obtaining the maximum return for your collection.

Embarrassing negot iations and bargaining are obviated when you sell through Harmer s with, in the end, the certain knowledge that by no means could you have done so we ll.

Efficiency, expertise and security have satisfied scores of thousands of collectors, executors, be neficiaries and trustees in many parts of the world and proved conclusively the truth of these claims.

It is therefore easier to understand why , for six consecutive seasons a turnover exceeding $3,000,000 has been realized by Harmers; in fact, in the past Season Harmers, New York alone exceeded $4 ,000,000!

Programs for the future clearly indicate that more and more philatelists are seeing the light and realizing the obvious virtue of selling through
