David M. Kols President

Session II (Friday, October 4th – 4pm Pacific Time): Leading off the stamp auction are a number of high-powered USA singles, including two that are missing from all but a few of the most advanced collections. Lot 853, estimated at $75,000 is a fault free graded 75 example of the 1¢ 1851, Type I (Scott 5), fewer than 100 are known to exist. Of these, almost all are faulty. This beauty catalogs in SMQ for a whopping $125,000! Also featured is Lot 1021, estimated at $50,000. It is hands-down, one of the nicest examples of the 24¢ 1869 Inverted Error you’ll hope to see. It is very nicely centered, with an attractive, light cancel. The stamp, with a PSE grade of 70 is identified as #55, with only 83 known. But we don’t just have world-class rarities, other highlights include everything from an extremely fine mint block of the $1 Trans-Mississippi (Lot 1199), to a striking example of the seldom-seen 1877 Balloon Mail semi-official (Lot 1441), and even a newly discovered doubleimpression error on a pair of the 20¢ Marshall stamp of the Prominent Americans (Lot1750).

Alan Lipkin Senior Vice President Penney O. Kols Vice President, Marketing

In Essays & Proofs you’ll find a wealth of unusual items, including unadopted designs for an 8¢ Zeppelin (Lot 1831), and two additional unaccepted designs for 50¢ 1933 Century of Progress Zeppelins (Lots 1832 and 1833)!

Wayne Youngblood V.P. Consignor Relations Michael Goldman Walter Morris Senior Describers

As usual, you’ll also find plenty of great EFO items, Plate Blocks, Sheets and Postal History. We feature the last of the Ezra D. Cole material in this sale, both as singles and a few accumulations.

Lindsay Cann Neil Coker Charles Lee Grassman Lot Describers

Session IV (Sunday, October 6th – 11am Pacific Time): In Foreign stamps, we’re pleased to offer a complete set of the RARE and beautiful “Compania Colombiana de Navegacion Aera” issues, of which no more than 15 sets can ever be assembled (since there are only 15 known of Scott C7).

Thomas Jozwik Donnis J. Willis Consignor Relations

And then there are the collections and large lots. While nothing can substitute for personally getting elbow deep in these boxes, I’d like to at least mention that a couple of old Tyme Hoards are found here, such as Lot 4457; a stock book chock full of material to keep you out of trouble for some time, and Lot 4461, a disorganized treasure hunter’s dream. There are many more large lots with a great deal of potential, but we’ll let you find them!

Cathy R. Skinner Auction Manager Lisa Pettibone Accounting Yvonne Jo Glasgow Nina Petteys Anya Wynne Graphic Designers

While you’re viewing at SESCAL, please be sure to stop by our Supply Booth, which is chock full of Showgard mounts, stock pages, hinges and loads of Stanley Gibbons & Scott catalogs, albums and other philatelic products. We also have some great stamp collecting kits that would make wonderful holiday gifts for any youngster. No matter what, please plan to stop by and say hello!

Ron Brinkman Peter van Leth Joey Monasterios Zachary Stallworth Administration

If you can’t join us at SESCAL, you may also view all stamp and coin lots, as well as most of the Collectibles lots at our St. Louis gallery until Wednesday, September 25th. All stamp lots will be available for viewing at SESCAL during show hours for the public. As always, viewing and live bidding are available 24/7 at www.RegencySuperior.com.

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.

Art Ortega

Collection

Lot 832

Nineteenth Century U.S. Postage Stamps

Art Ortega began collecting stamps in 1983, yet it was not until after college that he moved from a hobbyist into a relatively serious stamp collector. Collecting a variety of general 19th century U.S. postage stamps, his interest had always been with the obscure and hard-to-find items. Art always had an interest in the Classics, yet found that “Back of Book” material presented artistic freedom exhibited by the entrepreneurs, engravers, and printers of the era. He also experienced success with exhibiting his collections, the first three exhibits entitled: The Development of the American Postage Stamp (1741-1847), American Revenue Stamps (1798-1871), and American Local Post & Carrier Stamps (1840-1850) — producing silver and two gold medals. Another series of exhibits earned gold medals, Best U.S. History, and Best of Show accolades. Those were entitled: America: From Colony to Recovery (1633-1871) and The Innovative American & Entrepreneur (1840-1870). The second exhibit was a movement into showcasing eclectic material and was the catalyst for his most recent exhibit. His latest exhibit: Innovative Uses of Stamps in America (1840-1870) was truly a refinement and upgrade of rare and unique material, with advanced research educating viewers on interesting uses of stamps during the mid-19th century. This highly specialized, three frame exhibit showcased rarely seen and little understood items such as Hotel Forwarders Handstamps, Wafer Seals, College Stamps, and rare Sanitary Fair Stamps. His entire exhibit is represented within the pages of this catalog. Enjoy!

A complete sealed coil roll of 3,000 of this extremely rare 'NARROW SPACING' PRESORT PRECANCEL type. As a MINT roll of 3,000, the coil roll can yield up to 120 line pairs and 120 gap pairs. Current Brookman retail for line pairs $450 each, translating to $54,000, not counting singles or gaps. Factoring in the singles (another $138,000) brings the total to $192,000 Brookman catalog value. Coil also comes with ORIGINAL COIL LABEL, which – without a doubt – adds to its provenance. An opportunity to obtain one of the few known rolls of these stamps at a fraction of catalog value. Stamps well centered vertically. Very fine. 1421

STAMPLESS & STATE POSTAL HISTORY – MINNESOTA –

– STEAMSHIP & MARITIME –

4276 (7) 1851 FRANKLIN 1¢ BLUE STRIP ON MINNESOTA TERRITORIAL LADIES COVER ............................... PH

$300

Embossed ladies cover franked with horizontal strip of 3 from plate 2 and tied by July 28 (1850s) Concord M(innesota) T(erritory) cancels, strip margins vary from ample to just in, rubbing at bottom left causing small holes of no effect to cancels or franking. Scarce and fine.

– NEW YORK – 4277 1796-1855 HUGE ACCUMULATION OF EARLY NEW YORK POSTAL HISTORY ............................... $750-1000

Large accumulation of more than 500 USA stampless covers (mostly folded letters) from New York, with tremendous potential for finds. About 65% from New York City including a couple of early ‘half-clam’ markings, but there are many other New York towns represented as well, such as at least one nice Rome oval, Utica and Buffalo fancy ‘paid’ and a somewhat ratty cover with an extremely unusual ‘CIRCULAR PAID’ with diamond in oval. Also noted Express Mail markings, manuscript, SHIP marking types and varieties and much more. With some work and research there’s much to be found, as material has been off the market for many decades. From long buried Ezra D. Cole stock. 4278 1840s-1970s CENTRAL NEW YORK COVER COLLECTION .......................................................... $2000-3000

A holding of central New York State covers housed in three old cover boxes. About 650 covers total, individually sorted on dealer cards by town name. Cards also give much descriptive information on cancels, dates, rates, etc. All periods covered from late stampless to modern special events with many 1851 imperf & perfs, Banknotes and Washington-Franklins. Many small town, unusual or RPO cancellations to be found: Decatur manuscript, Edmeston, Elk Creek, Index, Cooperstown (with Baseball stamp FDC no cachet), Milford Centre, Oneonta, Richfield Springs, Schuylers Lake, Schenevus, South Valley, Toddsville, Unadilla Forks, Wells Bridge, West Burlington, many more. Also: corner cards, violet cancels, fancy cancels, advertising, picture postcards, ladies cover, a couple stampless, ‘Paid’, last day of Post Office or RPO, transit cancels, more! Very interesting grouping that would be hard to duplicate, with a special concentration on Oneida County towns. Overall fine to very fine condition.

– SOUTH CAROLINA – 4279 1799 ‘LAND MAIL’ CHARLESTON TO NEW YORK ................................. View photo online $200-300

Folded letter with business correspondence, sent from merchant Josiah Smith in South Carolina to customer Nicholas Lowe, Esq. in New York City. Manuscript ‘25’ at upper right and ‘Land/Mail’ at lower left. Charleston straightline black ‘C Jan.4’ at upper left. File folds and cutting from opening, letter intact with very neat handwriting. Fine to very fine. (ASCC $300)

More than 150 stampless folded letters, almost all related to Steamship or Maritime mail, but a few British domestic as well. Includes circled ‘STEAMSHIP 10’ and ‘20’ markings on 1850s folded letters (business correspondence), as well as some New York ‘Packet’ and ‘Ship’ markings. Remainder mostly Transatlantic mail, mainly to the United States but about 20 to other destinations, with many interesting rates and markings. We didn’t see rubber stamped ship markings, but many noted by designated ship, ‘per’ Europa, Canada, America, Great Western, Cunard Line or others. Few forwarding markings. Fine overall and definitely worth a close look. From long buried Ezra D. Cole stock.

– USA – 4281 1808-55 LARGE HOARD OF EARLY U.S. STAMPLESS ............................................................ $1000-1500

Huge accumulation of more than 700 USA stampless covers (mostly folded letters) with tremendous potential for finds. Noted markings such as Express Mail, railroads and a nice little clutch of ‘STEAMBOAT’ items, as well as a few better towns, such as Marshall, MI;, Little Rock, AR; couple of boxed Meadville, PA; and more. Lot most heavily populated with markings from Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Ohio and a fair number of Baltimore, MD, but there are a number of other states represented as well, and there are marking types and varieties to be sorted out. With some work and research there’s much to be found, as material has been off the market for many decades. From long buried Ezra D. Cole stock. 4282 1817-51 SELECTION OF EARLY FREE-FRANKED COVERS ...................................................................... $200-300

More than 40, mostly folded letters, with free frankings of postmasters, military and political officials. Among those included we noted Washington Hunt, an early governor of New York; J.D. Doty, who worked through land issues with Wisconsin Territory; George W. Hopkins (Va.) of the U.S. House of Representatives; George L. Kinnard (Ind.) of the U.S. House of Representatives; Jas. Whitcomb of the General Land Office and many more. Lot is ripe for historian/researcher. Fine. From long buried Ezra D. Cole stock. 4283 1832-55 SOUTHERN STATE STAMPLESS ................ $300-400

About 50 mostly folded letters from southern states including Alabama (Blacks Bluffs MS, Montgomery, Mobile), Georgia (Columbus, Danburg MS, Jefferson, La Grange, Macon, Milledgeville, Greensborough, Savannah), Louisiana (Alexandria, New Orleans) and Mississippi (Livingston, Middleton, Natchez). We noted different CDS types, styles and colors as well as different ratings. Fine overall, worthy of further research. From long buried Ezra D. Cole stock. 4284 c.1865 SOLDIER’S LETTER ENVELOPE, TO GERMANY ................................................................. PH

112

$200

U.S. Christian Commission/Soldier’s Letter scroll as corner card, addressed to Mannheim, Baden. Washington & New York transit cds, black target cancel, handstamp ‘30’ and manuscript ‘45’ for due markings; blue Aachen and black Mannheim receivers on back. Much margin wear and soiling, large sealed tear at top center, still a rare usage. Fine.

4470

Stock of about 300 stamps in counter book pages, mostly 1861 series and Large Bank Notes, but with many misidentified.

Even so, figuring this group conservatively is more than $19,000 in real catalog value. Two highlights we noticed include an all-over A-grill 3¢ (#79) and C-grill 3¢ (#83), as well as a possible Z-grill 2¢ (#85B). There are numerous 2¢ Black Jacks both grilled and non-grilled (45+), many 3¢ 1861s (grilled and non-grilled), as well as grilled 1¢, 10¢, 12¢ (x4), 15¢ (x2) and 1¢ Bank Note grills (x4).
