PUBLIC AUCTION SALE NUMBER 178 - SUNDAY 25th JULY 2021 Lingfield Park Racecourse.

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to our July Public Auction with 1050 lots going under the hammer ‘behind closed doors’ at our Mayfair offices.

I genuinely believe this to be one of the finest sales we have put together, enhanced to no small degree by lots 26 and 27.

Collections of this type (1902 British Commonwealth and 1898 foreign countries respectively) are seldom on the market and have already received considerable levels of interest. A wealth of all world, one country and GB collections follow (not forgetting 25 ‘room’ lots), so do please contact us for viewing arrangements and our (relatively) new video viewing facility.

A strong GB section includes some major rarities: A mint 1870 ‘OP-PC’ error (the first we have handled), 1882 unissued 1/purple plate 13 overprinted Specimen (only a handful known), an u/m 1902 10d Ed VII 10d ‘glossy’ and u/m 1912 2 1/2d indigo SG 373 (also an example fine used). I have often spoken of how much I rate watermark varieties and we have a significant number on offer here, several of which we have not seen before. These include, with inverted watermark, mint 2d SG 19, 1873 1/- green pl 12, 4d sage green and 1887 Jubilee 1/- green and carmine, with used 1883 1/- SG 196 (one of 4 known), 1887 10d Jubilee and Govt Parcels 9d SG 063 (listed but unpriced). Also several errors of watermark, inverted and reversed etc.

From the Commonwealth we have Australia mint 1913 1/- and 1915 10/- with inverted watermark and some interesting States, a Cyprus £5, Falklands Centenary £1 (also the 5/- Penguin shade and South Georgia Provisional), Gibraltar £5, Hong Kong (incl $10 Stamp Duty SG F6), Jamaica 1938 5/- line perf, Malaysia, better NZ Postal Fiscals, a range of Rhodesia ‘double heads’ and a Tristan Relief set. Also (and prominently displayed on the front cover) the very fine KUT 100r.

This time last year, I don’t think that even the most pessimistic amongst us would have thought that a year down the line we would be still suffering a degree of travel and social restriction. There is no doubt that things are in general a lot easier, but overseas travel remains a no no as far as my family and I are concerned. The ghastly prospect of 4 hour delays at airports, multiple testing and enforced quarantine is not an edifying one. Once again therefore, short breaks around England are the order of the day, with hiking on the glorious (and relatively little known it seems) Long Mynd in Shropshire, the Coastal path in Devon and in the Peak District so far. It has to be said that Mrs. F is happier attending the theatre in the West End than slogging up muddy tracks being exposed to the elements, but I regard it as just punishment for making me sit through the three hours of unrelenting gloom which is Chekhov’s Three Sisters! Fortunately, as this time last year, the weather is glorious, we have wall to wall sport going (I have a couple of days at the cricket and rugby booked, fingers crossed) and Stamp Shows are finally up and running again. The market certainly seems strong and it will be interesting to see how the events at Stafford, York and in particular Stampex fare.

Just a quick mention of an important collection to be offered in our November sale: an 1863 Lallier album, well filled with those issues prior to 1863, plenty of which one seldom (if ever) sees. The estimate is still to be established but further information will be available in the coming weeks. It is a beauty!

Hopefully you can participate in the auction and if so, good luck!

Tim

Estimated Values. Bids should be made in GBP (British Pounds Sterling) only and in whole pounds. Pence will not be taken into consideration and bids below 70% of the estimate may not be entered at all. Estimates are based on realisations from previous sales or at the describer’s discretionary and professional opinion. Reserves are generally at, or close to the lower estimate.

Catalogue Numbers and Values are from Stanley Gibbons (SG) catalogues unless shown otherwise. Values are applicable as of the date of describing so variations are possible. Numbers and values taken from other catalogues normally refer accordingly (e.g. Michel/Mi, Yvert/Yv, Scott, etc.) and usually show the £Stg/GBPS equivalent of that catalogue value.

Quantities for lots are shown where possible. For logistical reasons bulky lots will be shown with an approximate figure only, often denoted with ‘approx’ or similar. All reasonable care is taken in preparing figures; whilst accuracy is intended and offered in earnest, statistics and values must be understood as those of opinion and not as resolute fact.

Certificates. Lots where the item (or main item(s) within lot) has certification mentioned in the description, are offered based on the opinion expressed therein, which, may or may not reflect the views of Mayfair Philatelic Ltd. If extension for certification is required, this must be registered with us when the bid is placed, or by the close of sale at the latest. Requests beyond this point will not be fulfilled.

Value Added Tax (VAT). All stamps are sold under margin scheme rules, mostly for ‘Global Accounting’. No extra need be added within the EU and no export discount applies outside the EU. For import/export and VAT purposes stamps are treated as pre-owned, therefore, no VAT is added to the overall price nor is it subject to reclaim or discounts.

Album

ALL WORLD (Photo) (Plates 4 and 5) 1840/98 collection in Imperial printed album for foreign countries with extensive ranges from most countries and territories, mostly used, with some mint running throughout. The condition is mixed in places (a few stamps are toned) and, inevitably, there will be some reprints and forgeries, but the collection is replete with scarce, seldom seen issues. We note strong Latin America, in particular Argentina (+ Buenos Ayres and Corrientes), excellent Brazil, Colombia (+ Antioquia, Bolivar etc), Nicaragua, Mexico, Peru and Uruguay. China incl 2 each of 1ca (1 mint), 3ca and 5ca, 1894 to 24ca, 1897 SG 88 (mint), 89, 90 (toned), 91 (the scarce $1) and 117, also a nice range of Shanghai. Greece has a superb showing of ‘Hermes’ heads (also 1896 Olympics set mint), Netherlands (+ Indies), Japan (all but 4 spaces filled, presumed mostly reprints), Monaco (incl SG 9), extensive Sweden and Norway, Portugal and Colonies, also Romania. Spain has very few spaces (also Cuba etc), Finland, Turkey, Switzerland, with Russia incl SG 1 (cleaned?) and seldom seen Wenden, Levant etc, also Poland SG 1 x 3 types. The USA is mixed but with many scarce items and cat over £15,000 (plus some ‘back of book’, 20 x Confederate issues etc. France is very impressive (all but 3 spaces to 1892 filled) with ‘back of book’ and Colonies (mostly mint) incl scarce Annan and Tongking, Diego Suarez, New Cal, Obock, Reunion etc. Very noteworthy Italy and States, whilst perhaps the strongest sections are the German States. Again here, very few spaces remain unfilled with highlights too numerous to mention but with a catalogue well in excess of £50,000 (not including 3 x Saxony SG 1, poor but very scarce and Baden SG 20). Mostly compiled in the early years of the 20th century, a remarkable collection (the companion to lot 26). (Reserve £15,000) (Res. £15000)

£15000-18000

Est. to be advised.

The British Philatelic Auctioneers' Standard Terms and Conditions of Sale (1985 revision).

NOTICE The auctioneers exercise all reasonable care to ensure that all statements as to cancellations, centering, colour, condition, date of issue or of postal marking, gum, margins, paper, perforation, printing, provenance, quality, sheet position, status, usage, watermarks etc in lot descriptions are reliable and accurate and that each item is genuine unless the contrary is indicated. However the statements are not intended to be and are not to be taken t o be statements of fact or representations of fact in relation to the lot. They are statements of the opinion of the auctioneers and attention is particularly drawn to clause 5 of the PHILATELIC AUCTIONEERS STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS (1985 REVISION) set out below. Comments and opinions concerning the characteristics mentioned above, which may be found in or on lots as notes, lists, catalogue prices, writing up or any other means of expression, do not constitute part of lot descriptions and are not to be taken as such unless they are made or specifically verified by the auctioneers.

Clause 1 a) Each lot is put up subject to any reserve price imposed by the vendor. b) Subject to sub clause a) of this clause, the highest bidder for each lot shall be the purchaser thereof at the fall of the hammer. c) If any dispute arises as to the highest bidder the auctioneer shall have the absolute discretion to determine the dispute and may put up again and resell the lot in respect of which the dispute arises.

Clause 2 a) The bidding and advances shall be regulated by and at the absolute discretion of the auctioneer and he shall have the right to refuse any bid or bids.

NOTE. Where an agent bids, even on behalf of a disclosed client, the auctioneer nevertheless has the right at his discretion to refuse any such bid. b) The purchaser of each lot shall immediately on its sale if required by the auctioneer give to him the name and address of the purchaser and pay to the auctioneer at his discretion the whole or part of the purchase money. If the purchaser of any lot fails to comply with any such requirement, the auctioneer may put up again and re-sell the lot; if upon such resale a lower price is obtained than was first obtained on the first sale the purchaser in default on the first sale shall make good the difference in price and expense of resale which shall become a debt due from him. c) Where an agent purchases on behalf of an undisclosed client such agent shall be personally liable for payment of the purchase money to the auctioneer and for safe delivery of the lots to the said client.

Clause 3 a) The auctioneer reserves the right to bid on behalf of clients and vendors. b) The auctioneer reserves the right before or during a sale to group together lots belonging to the same vendor, to split up and to withdraw any lot or lots at the auctioneer's absolute discretion and without giving any reason in any case (without liability to any potential purchaser). c) The auctioneer acts as agent only and therefore shall not be liable for any default of the purchaser (providing he has not handed over the goods) or vendor.

Clause 4 a) Each lot shall be at the purchaser's risk from the fall of the hammer and shall be paid for in full before delivery and taken away at his expense by a purchaser in the United Kingdom within 7 days from the date of sale and by a purchaser overseas within 14 days from the date of sale or such longer time as shall be agreed in writing between the auctioneer and purchaser. b) If any purchaser fails to pay in full for any lot within the time stated in sub clause a) of this clause such lot may at any time thereafter at the auctioneer's discretion be put up for sale by auction again or sold privately. If upon such resale a lower price is obtained than was first obtained on the first sale the purchaser in default on the first sale shall make good the difference in price and expense of resale which shall become a debt due from him. c) Interest shall be payable by the purchaser on any overdue account, the rate to be specified by each individual auction for which Mayfair Philatelic Auctions currently levy a rate of 2% compound per calendar month, for each month or part month overdue following 30 days from the date of sale.

Clause 5 a) Each lot is sold as (1) GENUINE unless otherwise described in the sale catalogue or by the auctioneer and (2) correctly described (see also Clause 5f).

The date of any certificate forming part of the description of any lot may be included in the description. b) A purchaser shall be at liberty to reject any lot if he (i) gives the auctioneer written notice of intention to question the genuineness or, as the case may be, the accuracy of the description of the lot within 7 days (or in the case of any overseas purchaser to be in the auctioneer's hands within 10 days) from the date of sale AND (ii) proves that the lot is not genuine or was incorrectly described; AND (iii) returns to the auctioneer within 30 days from the date of sale, the lot in the same condition as it was at the time of sale; provided that the auctioneer may, at his absolute discretion, on receiving a request in writing from the purchaser, extend for a reasonable period the time for the return of the lot, to enable it to be submitted to an agreed expert or expert committee. NOTE: The onus of proving a lot to be not genuine, or incorrectly described, is on the purchaser. The inability of a recognized expert or expert committee to express a definite opinion shall serve to discharge the onus on the purchaser and shall be a ground for rejecting the lot concerned. c) Where a lot has been submitted for expert opinion, all costs of such an opinion shall be paid by the person who retained the item or items to which that opinion relates. d) Where the purchaser of a lot discharges the onus and acts in accordance with sub clause (b) of this clause, the auctioneer shall rescind the sale and repay to the purchaser the purchase money paid by him in respect of the lot. e) No lot shall be rejected if, subsequent to the sale, it has been immersed in water, marked by an expert or expert committee, or treated by any other process, unless the auctioneer's permission to subject the lot to such immersion, marking or treatment, has first been obtained in writing. (Note. Many Continental experts now mark forged stamps; therefore it is essential for permission to be obtained from auctioneers BEFORE submitting to these experts.) f) If any lot listed under 'collections or various' or stated to comprise or contain a collection, issues, or stamps which are undescribed shall be put up for sale, not subject to rejection and shall be taken by the purchaser with all (if any) faults, lack of genuineness and errors of description and numbers of stamps in the lot and the purchaser shall have no right to reject the lot; except that, notwithstanding the provisions of this sub clause, where before a sale a person intending to bid at the sale gives notice in writing to, and satisfies the auctioneer that any such lot contains any item or items not described in the sale catalogue, and that person specifically describes that item or those items shall, as between the auctioneer and that person, be taken to form part of the description of the lot for the purposes of sub clauses (a), (b) and (d) of this clause. g) No lot illustrated in the catalogue shall be rejected on the ground of centering, cancellation, margins, perforation or other characteristics clearly apparent from the illustration. h) Lots offered 'as is' or 'offered on their merits' may contain items that are not genuine and, therefore, may not be returned for any reason. Neither can extensions be granted on them.

Clause 6 The respective rights and obligations of the parties shall be governed and interpreted by English Law and the buyer hereby submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts.
