PUBLIC AUCTION SALE NUMBER 8 - SUNDAY 29th SEPTEMBER 2019 Lingfield Park Racecourse. It is with great pleasure that we present our sixth public auction, with 1250 lots going under the hammer at our ever popular Lingfield Park Racecourse venue on September 29th. It is hard to believe that we at Mayfair are still three months shy of our second anniversary. If you will permit me a minor indulgence, during that time we have sold a grand total of 8644 lots for £2,250,000 (and all of that in the 15 months between March 2018 and June 2019). Anyway, enough of that, what of this sale? We offer a particularly plentiful pile of boxes and collections for you to wade through, ranging as ever from cheap and cheerful ‘glory’ boxes to powerful Commonwealth and one country collections, with an excellent GB section. A few highlights here include 5 different ‘Rainbow’ Colour trials, strong mint QV including 1 1/2d rosy mauve, 2 1/2d rosy mauve pl 2 on blued paper and a £5 orange, also cds high values, some spectacular 1887 Jubilee misperforations and the very scarce Die Proof for the unissued Ed VII £5. In a similar vein we have a group of 4 Ed VII ‘Paste up’ Essays, major rarities (and many years since we’ve handled one), a fine section of u/m 1912 Royal Cypher shades including 2 1/2d dull Prussian blue and 1/- deep bronze brown, also one of the scarcest GV Controls, the 1 1/2d ’18’ only (K omitted). As ever we have inverted watermarks throughout, featuring in particular the 1915 DLR 5/- u/m, SG 409wi (superb) with a few QEII missing colours incl. SG 801a, the Cathedrals 1/6d missing black. One of the rarest items amongst the GB is the 1948 1/- booklet SG BD6. With a catalogue price of £9000, this is the scarcest GB booklet (I have never even seen one). However, it is also, it has to be said, not exactly photogenic, being blessed as it is with a plain white cover. However, you do not have to be a thing of beauty to have value and hidden depths (I promise I’m not thinking of Rick here). Probably the strongest Commonwealth section we have put together follows, with Barbados proofs, Br. PO’s in E. Arabia SG 30a inverted surcharge u/m, Fiji SG 139ab 1d mint pair with ‘War Stamp’ omitted, KUT high values including 1922 high values to £100 o/pt Specimen and an exceptional section of Canadian proofs including the 1851 12d, both in the scarlet and brown shades. We also have a Cyprus £5, Falklands Centenary set, Malta 10/- SG 96, Sierra Leone £5, NZ £4.10s SG F167 and the superb Natal £1.10 fine used on piece. Not to be outdone, we also note China SG 2397a mint strip and 2 important rarities from Switzerland, the 1912 Pro-Juventute set of 3 unissued forerunners used and the 1862 Italian Provisional bisect (SG 46a, cats £8500). In the introduction to our May Postal sale, Rick made mention of the probability that we would be moving into new premises. This came to pass during August and we will henceforth be based in a very nice office on the river in Vauxhall. Only a short walk from the station (which serves both over and underground), very much an up and coming area (Sadie assures me that her many nights out around there did not influence her choice in any way and from my point of view, the proximity to the Oval is mere coincidence!). Full details within the catalogue. I shall shortly be heading Stateside for 10 days or so, no stamps this time if for no other reason than the increasingly enfeebled £ rendering buying almost impossible. A few days in Boston then some hiking and mountain biking in Utah’s canyon country before heading back for a busy autumn (not forgetting of course the Rugby World Cup which will have to go some to match the cricket!). Prior to this sale we have Stampex where the lots will be available for viewing. We are always looking for consignments for future auctions and to buy collections outright; what can you offer us? We then have a postal auction in November and an internet sale in December to round off the year. One further item of importance to draw to your attention: A reminder that the GB and Commonwealth single items sections, lots 562 to 1250, will have the additional facility of live on-line bidding. If you had told Rick and I a few years ago that we would be hosting internet auctions and on-line bidding we would have politely laughed before calling the men with white coats. I’ve just about mastered turning on the computer and sending an email and yet here we are, leaping into this exciting (scary?) new world. Fortunately Sadie is now on the verge of becoming a fully-fledged philatelist. She managed to assist a client by looking up and correctly identifying a KUT item in the SG catalogue (perhaps she could show Rick how she did it), most impressive, as was her managing to locate the catalogue under one of the many mounds of paperwork on her desk. She has clearly taken to heart the old maxim that in our business, it is impossible to operate a ‘tidy desk’ policy! Tim Francis

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/GBP 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 Philatelics 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. Delivery of Lots.

Philasearch suggest; ‘If you are unavailable at the time of the Live Auction, you can “put your name down” on a lot. This will tell the Auctioneer that there is an internet bid. The Virtual Auctioneer will then act as your agent during the live auction. This can be done easily with a click of a button when reviewing the auction lots. In this way, you will also receive a list of all lots you are interested in bidding on and/or watching. This can be very helpful when following the auction live. We suggest that you review the auction lots as soon as possible, make notes for bid day, or “put your name down” on lots that are of interest. We hope to see you on the virtual auction floor.

Write down the lot numbers of the items you would like to bid on during the Live-Auction.

If you have any questions, please contact us in advance of the sale commencing Be on your computer on time. The auction typically starts on schedule. ***IMPORTANT*** - During the Live auction, don’t wait too long with your bids! If your internet connection is too slow, they just may not arrive in time.

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.
