One of the finest things in the whole collection is the unused block of four of the ld . orange "Post Paid " of the 1848 issue of Mauritius . This is on thic k ye llowish paper and is from the earliest state of the plate . Mr. Caspary acquired this unique block from Mr . Arthur Hind ' s collection; previously it had been owned by Henry J. Duveen. The locall y engraved stamps in the collection are a magnificent lot , among the more notable being the 1848 " tuppennies " in the earliest state , and the unused single and used pair from the 2d . plate re-engraved

by Sherwin in October 1859 . The Dardenne lithograph s of December 1859 seem to be stamps for which Mr. Caspary had a special liking , as, in addition to some fine singles , h e owned no fewer than five pairs of the 2d. and a wonderful used pair of the ld., the latter still on its original circular.

Many will be interested in the block of four St. Helena with the two top stamps doubly printed of twelve, at the top of the sheet, in this condition of acquiring it are therefore somewhat restricted. island is the vertical pair of the "One Shilling" the surcharge omitted from the lower stamp.

of the Z½ d. on 6d. blue of . Of this variety, only one row ever existed, and opportunities Another rare item from this on 6d. deep yellow-green with

When the Worthington collection was sold Mr . Caspary bought the Transvaal section with the exception of a very few stamps, and the collection is today substantially the same as when it was purchased . Mr. Worthington formed the co!lection at a ti me when he had the competition of a number of ardent co!lectors of Transvaal stamps, but he was able, nevertheless, to acquire more than a fair share of the fine things that became available. Among the choice items that are now offered is the block of four of the 6d. ultramarine, of May 10th , 1870, with th e lower left stamp inverted. These stamps were printed by Viljoen at Pretoria on thick , hard paper with streaky gum, and rouletted 15½- 16. Of this particular tete-bec h e only six examples are recorded: one is in the Royal Co!lection at Buckingham Palace, two in the Tapling Co!lection at the British Museum , and two in the J. Herbert Curle Co!lection in the Africana Museum , Johannesburg . The block of four now offered is, therefore , the only one now available to co!lectors.

It was originally in the co!lection of E. J . Nankive!l , who acquired it from a German dealer at the turn of the century for approximately $25; from Nanki vell it passed into the collection of Alberto Philipp, of Hamburg , and when his collection was dispersed in 1906 George H . Worthington became the owner.

Another tete-beche included in the sale is the mint pair of the ls . ye!lowgreen , imperforate, of April 1870. This 1s one of eight examples recorded, half of which are in public collections .

Coming to the Asiatic countries, the Ceylon imperforates are a particularly fine lot , with the unused 9d. as the outstanding stamp. The Indian stamps are n otabl e for a number of fine pairs and strips of the 1854 issue, as we!l as a number of attractive covers, one of which, franked by two pairs of 4 annas, was used from Singapore . The specimen of the 4 annas with the Que en 's head inverted in the collection is one of two copies found used together on piece . One passed into the British Royal Collection, while the other was bought by Henr y J. Duveen and later acquired by Mr. Caspary.
