This collection is being offered with minimal reserves. This sale is replete with many rarely offered stamps and sets, most all in mint condition, except for a few of the used rarities. Many stamps were printed in very small numbers and are extremely tough to find. This is a tremendous opportunity for the British collector to fill in their missing ‘holes’ in one fell swoop. And, the country collections are exceptionally clean, and – I daresay – loaded. The strength is across the board. You will find the individual Colony & Commonwealth collections at the end of the catalog. Highlights of this collection are abundant. Here is a sampling: Great Britain (37d) 3d imperf; Great Britain (163c) George V 2½d indigo; many Officials; numerous Australian Kangaroos; Cape of Good Hope – Mafeking (175) 1sh on 6d surcharge; Falkland Islands (74a) 5sh King Penguin shade variety; India (O13) overprinted 4a fiscal; Madagascar (24B) 1sh6d Consular Mail with original corner gum; Rhodesia (118d var) £1 Double Head reddish mauve & carmine color error with eyebrow variety, one of two in existence; plus numerous George V Silver Jubilee plate varieties, George VI Key Plates with shade varieties, and many high face value issues and postal fiscals, most all with recent certificates.

Bidding Guidelines for Stamps & Postal History Stamp Catalogs

Stamp Centering Grades

The current editions of Scott Catalogues are used, plus where applicable, additional catalog values are listed from Gibbons, Michel, Facit, Yvert & PSE's Stamp Market Quarterly (SMQ).

Extremely Fine

Near perfect centering on all four sides. A real gem.

Very fine

Well centered, all perforations well clear of design on all four sides, but design slightly off center.

FVF

Fine to Very Fine Perforations clear design on all four sides, but design is off center usually on two sides.

Fine

Perforations barely clear design, or may touch on early issues prior to 1900.

AVE

Average

Perforations cut into design.

Estimates In addition to the catalog value, 'estimates' are listed for each lot. You will find the estimates more reflective of the current market, and what you can reasonably expect to pay for a lot. You may, of course, bid higher or lower than the estimates. You may also speak with a lot describer for a more detailed description of a particular lot. Please call at least 72-hours prior to the sale (the earlier, the better). Remember, a Public Auction is not an approval service. Lots are not returnable unless misdescribed.

Covers & Postcards Covers should be expected to have slight reductions, minor nicks and tears usually from opening. Folded letters normally have one or two file folds, and these are not normally described and are not grounds for return.

IMPORTANT: Early stamp issues prior to 1900 were printed in such a way that the design was naturally very close to the edges. This is taken into consideration when grading. For SETS, the above classifications are used in describing the overall appearance of the set with particular attention to the high values.

Stamp Gum & Hinging MNH Never Hinged

Mint, full original gum as issued by the Post Office. No trace of any hinge mark and no gum disturbance. The presence of an expertizer’s mark does not disqualify a stamp from this designation, but will be noted.

Lightly Hinged

Unused, original gum with light gum disturbance from the removal of a hinge. No hinge remnant present, and only a trace of the hinge mark visible.

Hinged

Unused, original gum. Hinge marks will be readily present, and there may be some small pieces of the hinge still adhering to the stamp.

( )

Unused

No gum.

Limits You may limit your total purchases by simply indicating the amount on your bidding form. This way, for example, you can bid on $5,000 worth of lots, but limit your purchases to $1,000. Remember, all lots are sold in lot number order. Bids on specific lots over and beyond your limit may be added to your purchase if you indicate they are to be excluded from your limit.

'OR' Bids You may bid on several similar lots with the assurance that you will purchase only one of them. Simply place an 'OR' between the bids submitted on the lots involved, and we will buy the first 'OR' lot for you, and void the rest. Remember, all lots are sold in lot number order, so you may not indicate a preference for one lot over another.

The

Charles J. Cook

British Commonwealth Collection

Charles Cook was born in St Louis in 1935, graduated from University City High in 1953, and majored in accounting at Northwestern University graduating “with highest distinction” in 1957. While at Northwestern, he was elected to four honorary fraternities – freshman, math, accounting and business. Chuck took the CPA exam in May 1957, and passed with the third highest grade in the country. He married Barbara (known to all as ‘Boo’) not long after graduation, and their family now numbers three children, four grandchildren, and a new great grandchild. He joined Price Waterhouse & Co (now PricewaterhouseCoopers) in 1957, and was admitted as a Partner in June 1970. Chuck transferred to PW’s Baltimore office to become its first tax partner. PW transferred him back to St. Louis in June 1981 to head its tax department. He retired from PW on June 30, 1992. Since retirement, Chuck has become virtually a full-time charity volunteer serving on the boards of directors for The Scholarship Foundation of St. Louis, the Contemporary Art Museum of St. Louis, the Psychoanalytic Institute of St Louis, and has been on the board at Regency-Superior since 2000. Besides stamp collecting (his first hobby) the Cooks have a number of other collections, do a good bit of traveling, and play a lot of tennis (Chuck) and bridge (Boo).

Chuck was one of Regency Stamps’ earliest customers back in 1992 when we started our St. Louis operation. Besides being a good customer for the past 20 years and a director of the Company, Chuck has been a good friend. It is indeed our pleasure to offer Chuck’s prized British Commonwealth Collection, including hundreds of varieties that are rarely seen. Every colony is well represented and virtually complete. His collection is replete with many rarely offered stamps and sets, most all in mint condition. This is a tremendous opportunity for the British collector to fill their wantlist.
