Phoenix Auctions - Saturday 1st February 2014

Welcome to Phoenix Auctions Auction No.27 This is our first auction for 2014. We hope you all had a terrific time with family and friends over the festive season. We are planning another busy year with many fine auctions to come. David is being allowed to go to Stampex by himself this time. Spring Stampex runs from 19th to 22nd February at the Business Design Centre in Islington, London. He will be at Booth 20 and will be very pleased to meet any visitors that happen to drop by. Within reason, he is also happy to take over any successful purchases from this auction, so you can collect them at Stampex. Naturally he will collect any material you would like to consign to future auctions.
David and Ken will also be attending the Canberra Stampshow this year. This runs from 14th to 16th March and it is held at the Hellenic Club Canberra, Matilda Street, Woden, ACT. The Canberra Philatelic Society always conduct a good show. If you haven’t been before why don’t you come along. This year we are going to start our auctions at 9:30am rather than 10:00am. This will allows to finish slightly earlier and also help our room bidders get home a little earlier. As always we will appreciate any feedback you may have on this change.
This auction has been split into 3 sessions. The morning session is completely taken up with 752 lots of Rest of World lots. There is a very strong China section with over 170 lots including collections and a fine range of mid-1960s to early 1980s sets. We have quite an extraordinary number of 1935 Siver Jubilee lots, many with catalogued varieties.

Phoenix Auctions - Saturday 1st February 2014
In the early afternoon session we will be offering Australian Colonies followed by the Roos. There are particulary strong selections of numerals used on Commonwealth issues. This is a very popular collecting area and offerings as good as this don’t come up very often. The single stamp Roo lots include a few of the very popular and very rare Brisbane CTOs.
The final session has the balance of Australia and the Australian Territories and exTerritories. There is strong representation throught with many varieties and covers of all descriptions. In the Military Postmarks section are some rarely seen WWI camps including a couple we have never seen before! The PNG section has quite an offering of postal history, particularly in the Mandated Territory period of New Guinea. Viewing for this Auction. Saturday 25th January Sunday 26th January Monday 27th January Tuesday 28th January Wednesday 29th January Thursday 30th January Friday 31st January Saturday 1st February available. Viewing outside of these times is
10am to 4pm 10am to 4pm 10am to 4pm 10am to 4pm 10am to 4pm 10am to 4pm 10am to 6pm 8am to 9:30am - after 9:30am limited viewing is available by appointment only.

HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM OUR CATALOGUE
[These notes are offered as a guide to understanding the information given as symbols.] 1. 2.
3.
Firstly, we have the lot number. If it has a P after the lot number then ithe lots is illustrated in the catalogue. All lots have at least 1 illustration on our website, and many will have multiple illustrations. The second column contains a symbol, which represents the item(s) in the lot: ** Mint, unmounted o.g. * Mint, mounted o.g. V Used, Very fine. F Used, Fine G Used, Good H Used, Heavy U Used,quality unspecified W Unused, no gum D Piece * Cover, card or S Stamp (“Postmarks” lots) PS Postal Stationery B Booklets or Booklet Panes The 3rd column contains the general description of the lot and should be self-evident with one exception. When a catalogue value is extrapolated the value is followed by a ↕, e.g. $2000↕. Typical extrapolations are 40% of the catalogue value for hinged mint when the catalogue only provides values for MUH, 200% for MUH when the catalogue value is for mint hinged. The following notes apply specifically to postmark description. Whenever possible postmarks will be described in full, except that the top portion of a postmark is only spelt out when it differs from the post office name or requires some clarification. Bracketed shaded text within a description indicates that these characters cannot be read, while greyed characters are hard to read or are only partly present, as is the case when part of the postmark is on the edge of a stamp. Very large or small letters are represented by large and small fonts respectively; small fonts are particularly used to indicate the presence of small nylon wheels in the datestamp. The following example illustrates these points: '[POST] OFFICE/21DE86/GARAH'. After the forscription of the postmark we will indicate the overall quality of the cancel with a bracketed 2 character code. The first character is A-D where A is a fine clear postmark through to D which is barely legible. The second character is a number from 1 to 4 where 1 is complete including all the frame through to 4 where only 25% or less of the cancel is visible. For exceptional strikes we will further qualify the quality code with a ‘+’ and for items which are light etc the code will be qualified with a ‘-’. For postmark lots the condition of the postmark is the most important aspect of our descriptions. Minor defects in the stamp or cover are mentioned only when the value of the item is significant. Naturally, major defects will always be described.
4.
The symbols in the second column, and the illustrations of lots, form part of the lot description.
5.
The last column is the estimate. The reserve is almost always 75% of the estimate and bids below the reserve will not usually be considered.
6.
No GST is added to the hammer price. The vendors have accepted responsibility for any tax payable.
7.
We use the following standardised abbreviations: o.g. original gum opt(d) overprint(ed) d/s datestamp cds circular datestamp h/s handstamp mss manuscript; handwritten ERD earliest recorded date LRD latest recorded date o/o opened-out RLabel registration label M/S(s) miniature sheet(s) PPC picture postcard impt imprint mtd mounted provl provisional wmk watermark LDL large dateline (postmarks) SDL small dateline (postmarks) TLC,TRC,LLC,LRC Top Left Cnr, Top Right Cnr, Lower Left Cnr, Lower Right Cnr

My Auction 27 Bidsheet. As mentioned earlier My Auction Bidsheet is the most important part of the website when you have placed bids in the auction, because it provides everything you need to manage your bidding. With this screen you can change your bids, add limits to ensure you don’t overspend, enter Credit Card details or other special instructions. And it always shows you the current status of your bids. The lot is highlighted when you have the top bid so it is easy to see the current situation with your bids. As well as being able to modify your bids there is a +5% button which increases your bid to 5% above the current starting price. At the bottom of this webpage there is also a field to globally increase all your bids by any percentage amount. Very useful when your bids are all way below the starting price or you want to give yourself that extra level of safety. The website is there to help you get the most when dealing with Phoenix Auctions. We hope you take a little time to use it to your advantage. Remember that we are always happy to help if you have a problem or questions.

This is the earliest commercial international airmail service item to New Zealand. [Of far greater philatelic significance than the Aug 1920 cover carried by Parer & McIntosh claimed to be the first “ordinary” airmail letter to Australia (from Straits Settlements), franked at 4c for surface rate only and was not carried by an official airmail service yet still realised $14,375 at a Melbourne auction in 2011]

An alternative to the London-Karachi service for air acceleration for New Zealand bound mails was to utilise the Canadian or USA airmail services to connect with New Zealand bound steamers, delivering a time saving of about one week over the surface route.] NEW ZEALAND | First Day Covers 1963 Health Miniature Sheets of Prince Andrew SG #816a tied to SMC illustrated FDCs by Health Camp special cds (2½d 607 * Otaki, 3d Gisborne).
