Proudly Supporting Australia 2013

Box Lot Auction #1207 Friday 14th December, 2012 at 4:00pm Level 2, 170 Queen Street, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Welcome to the seventh of our BOX LOT Auctions which will be held at our NEW PREMISES at Level 2, 170 Queen Street, Melbourne, just 100m east of our old offices. Enter either lift in the foyer and go to Level 2. If visiting and the lifts are secured, press the buzzer outside the front door and we will send the lift down for you. This has been a marvellous year with many highlights. We have held 7 major auctions and 7 small boxlot auctions. Auction 16, the Stuart Hardy KGV auction, was a spectacular success and this produced many major achievements. It was our first major auction to achieve 100% sales (although boxlot auction 1204 also achieved this with after sales). It was our first auction to exceed $1,000,000 in sales (the gross was in excess of $1.17 million). The imperf Kookaburra miniature sheet in this auction was sold for $326,200 a World Record Price for any single Australian Commonwealth item. And, to top this year off, we have just been voted Auction House of the Year by the members of the Australasian Philatelic Traders Association. This Auction of 134 lots contains the usual Collections and Accumulations from around the world, Australian Decimal Postage, Kiloware and assorted philatelic odds and sods plus a range of literature including pre-loved and new books, back issues of magazines, journals, auction and stamp catalogues and much more. Something for everyone! All our standard auction procedures apply to these Auctions. You can bid in the room, by post, email or through the website. In fact you can bid exactly the same way you do with our normal public auctions. If you intend to bid live online please contact us if you have any queries as to how our online bidding operates. The majority of the lots contained here do require some consideration as to how they will be despatched to you, so please be aware of the weight and bulk of items if mail is your preferred method of despatch. We do welcome bids from all over, but please be aware as these costs are sometimes very prohibitive! Viewing will be held Saturday 8th through to Friday 14th December, excluding Thursday afternoon. We trust you will find something of interest in this Auction and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their support both as customers and vendors and to wish you all a happy Festive Season and a prosperous and healthy New Year.
