Separat ed by an ocean which, until after the last War , one allowed six or seven days to cross , I had necessarily too few meetings with my great American philatelic colleague, Alfred Caspary. But in spi te of their rarity our meetings had always left me with happy memories. It was at the time of the Ferrari sales, about 1923, that we met for the first a nd was not a very large buyer, except time . Mr. Caspary came very irregularly items such and some important of course for the U.S. Postmasters ' Provisionals of British blue 4c as the block of 25 of th e first issue of Tuscany, a magnificent Guiana and other individual beautiful pieces. At the time th at Ferrari formed his collection , one did portance of covers which one found cumbersome , nor was in them except when the complete letter Ferrari , interested easily to pronounce genuine a local sta mp or an easily forged to find the a great collector of covers , had le ss opportunity in that collection.

not attach great im thi s great collector, enabled him more Caspary , surcharge. material he wanted

which I had the pleasure of holding with Mr. In the course of conversations Caspary at that time , I was happy to note that we had, in philatelic matters, very similar ideas: assemble as far as pos sible for each stamp mint copies, the main varieties of shade and cancellation , covers showing their use, and blocks to dis cover the margin widths and alignment of watermarks.

The last time I met Mr. Caspary was during the Hind sales in London . The day before the Mauritius stamps were to be sold, I went to the British Museum to look at the fine Tapling Collection there. At the same time he arrived with the same object in mind. The collection was housed in a large square piece of furniture with drawers arranged in tiers, one above the other. The Mauritius stamps were in the bottom tier , only a little above the floor. In order to see them, we were obliged not only to kneel but to lean forward with one hand on the floor. This unusual position led the attendants to believe that we had evil intentions; one of them disappeared for a moment , then a little later other attendants came to block the various doorways , doubtless to prevent our flight after the theft that they supposed we wanted to commit. Meanwhile other attendants were patrolling around us inspecting the showcases full of old prints, parchments and manuscripts as if they had never before noticed them. But when we got to our feet without having broken anything , there was a general disbanding , all the attendants abondoning their "alert posts " to return to their normal duties. Having been witnesses to changed ideas and found to our Mr. Caspary informed me that be unable to attend the auction buy the famous block for him,

this maneuver , which amused us greatly, we exgreat regret that many of our interests overlapped. because of an important appointment he would the next day and even asked me as a favor to which I did .

The price was very high and when I informed him he could not refrain from an expression of surprise; I suggested that I would keep it for my own collection but he would not hear of it and accepted it with good grace . This is why one of the most valuable items was in his collection m Sale Twelve on February 24, 25 and 26 , 1958.
