Experienced Auctioneers Since 1929

ach year, we proudly serve as the official auctioneer for our hometown show, the Saint Louis Stamp Expo. This year we will be holding a large auction with more than 3,300 lots. The Expo will be held at the Renaissance St. Louis Airport Hotel on the weekend of March 27-29, 2015. We encourage you to attend one of the most popular APS shows in the country! Enjoy not only our auction, but also the many philatelic exhibits. You also can shop with the 50 national stamp dealers who will have booths at the show. This year we welcome the Germany Philatelic Society to St. Louis. We have arranged a special hotel rate of $89 per night at the show hotel. Please call the hotel directly at 1-800-468-3571 for reservations and ask for the special stamp show rate. We'd like to call your attention to the late Dr. Elizabeth Nettles, who formed an exceptional “Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Mails” 10-frame exhibit that was in our 2014 Court of Honor, and won a passel of medals. This exhibit with many stand-out items, as well as her extensive St. Louis Advertising cover collection is featured. Betty was a good friend and mentor to many collectors and exhibitors throughout the St. Louis area. Please look for the “Ex-Dr. Elizabeth Nettles” notations to locate her lots. Much of it is in the opening section of this catalog. Our second featured consignor is Jim Czyl, who amassed an impressive collection of Cinderellas, fakes, forgeries, fantasies, and local posts during his lifetime. He also operated several local posts, creating tons of creative items. You’ll find “Ex-Jim Czyl” next to his items. Jim was a personal friend for many years and we learned that he had a good eye for unusual material. Even much of his less-expensive material is fascinating! Now, on to the catalog! Session I (Saturday, March 28th at 11am) opens with Dr. Nettles’ Special Exhibits of St. Louis, Advertising, and the 1904 World’s Fair, and continues with U.S. single stamps from the early classics through back of the book, a strong mint sheet offering, and great plate blocks. A major item of Dr. Nettles is a complete set of signed large die proofs of the Louisiana Purchase Exposition (Lot 1893). We also have a complete set of small die proofs of the 1898 Trans-Mississippi Exposition (Lot 1892). Other standouts include near-perfect graded stamps scattered throughout the sale. Our EFO section contains 100 lots of major errors and freaks of all types including Lot 1782, a bottom margin pair of the 32¢ Nixon stamp with red omitted. Session II (Sunday, March 29th at 11am) begins with a wide selection of British and foreign singles including a couple of outstanding GB items. First is a gorgeous 2d blue (No. 4e) showing the characteristic “Ivory Head” variety (Lot 2044), and a 1913 £1 Seahorse, Scott 176 (Lot 2074). In First-Day Cover singles, we have another Dr. Nettles standout: Lot 2732, an FDC of the 1¢ Louisiana Purchase, one of ONLY 2 KNOWN on cover (8 additional are known on card). We continue with Covers and conclude with our unquestionably popular Collections and Box Lots, representing collections for all budgets. The sale concludes with many supply and literature lots, as well as a large lot of local post handstamp devices and even a couple stamp vending machines! The auction is available for viewing at our St. Louis gallery from February 28th through Tuesday, March 24th, then again on the show floor at the Expo beginning Friday, March 27th. Live bidding is available on our website until one hour prior to each session at www. RegencySuperior.com. Best of luck with your bidding!

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).

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.

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. F

Fine

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

AVE Average

Perforations cut into design.

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

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.

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.

LH 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.

'OR' Bids

Hinged

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.

()

Unused

Unused, original gum. Hinge marks will be readily present, and there may be some small pieces of the hinge still adhering to the stamp. No gum.

James C. Czyl, 1947-2014 A leading authority and researcher of cinderella and local post stamps, James C. “Jim” Czyl, died June 27 in Kankakee, Ill. Mr. Czyl was the author of the Cinderella Scene column in Linn’s Stamp News beginning with the Dec. 20, 1982 issue. Cinderellas are loosely described as anything that isn’t a stamp but has the appearance of a stamp. In his first Linn’s column, Mr. Czyl provided some examples.“The list of what can be considered cinderellas is long, varied, and can cause heated discussions among philatelists,” he wrote. “Some items commonly called cinderellas are: phantoms, bogus stamps, forgeries, reprints, local post stamps, seals (Christmas, charity event, propaganda and philatelic exhibition), essays, proofs and revenues.” The subjects covered in his column were every bit as varied as the items on his list. He reported new finds and unearthed details about the origins of classic cinderellas.“Jim’s knowledge of phantoms, forgeries and locals is formidable,” wrote then-Linn’s Editor Michael Laurence when the column was introduced. “He has a clean, crisp writing style, and a well-developed sense of whimsy that is appropriate to his subject.” An award-winning collector and exhibitor, Mr. Czyl also began his own modern United States local posts in the 1970s; the most well known operated under the name of Czyl’s Penny Post. He designed and produced cinderella stamps commemorating varied subjects, including Lundy, the Bristol Channel island that produces its own local stamps, which Mr. Czyl collected and studied. Mr. Czyl was one of four founding members of the Lundy Collectors Club USA, along with George Fabian, Duane Larson and Dick Barnes, and he visited the island eight times. Regency-Superior's President David Kols and VP Penney Kols, accompanied Jim to Lundy Island on one of those trips. For those who don't know it, our President is a big Lundy collector and exhibitor! Mr. Czyl was affiliated with the S. Allan Taylor Society, the Cinderella Stamp Club, the Collectors Club of Chicago, the Chicago Philatelic Society, the American Philatelic Society and numerous other organizations. Jim will be sorely missed by all his friends and fellow collectors. * As an important note, due to the sheer size of this sale, you’ll see more of Jim's and Betty’s material in our upcoming June 5-7, 2015 NAPEX Washington DC Auction.

Dr. Elizabeth Jane (Betty) Nettles As is the case with many collectors, our hobby activities represent only one part of the person. We tend to be far more interesting people than most see at club meetings or stamp shows. Such is the case with featured collector Dr. Elizabeth J. Nettles (affectionately known as Aunt Betty), who passed away April 11, 2014, at the age of 80. Although most of us in the collecting community knew Betty as a friend, fellow club member or exhibitor, she was – among other things – a prominent and accomplished St. Louis psychotherapist and was deeply respected throughout her chosen field. After graduating with a Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Washington University in St. Louis, Betty began her private practice as a clinical psychologist in 1960 and quickly became recognized as a specialist in psychological testing of children and adolescents for diagnosing difficult cases. Although she was a skilled therapist for all age groups, her special focus and love was always children (many with traumatic backgrounds). Many of “Betty’s Children” sought her out during her final illnesses, some bringing their own children to meet her. As a collector, Betty’s interests were aroused early. She was born at home on Sept 3, 1933, in Wakefield, Virginia, the first of three children of Dr. Edwin Carter Nettles and Louise Robertson Nettles. She began to collect stamps at age 8 while recovering from polio. She moved to St. Louis in 1956 and resided in the area the rest of her life. Betty’s love of St. Louis led to two of her major collecting areas and several major award-winning exhibits, including those based on St. Louis postal history (and advertising) and the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition. Her other major collecting passions included Hawaii and a specialized collection of Diamonds. Some of her prized Hawaiian material was on long-term loan in an exhibit at the Smithsonian Institution’s National Postal Museum. Betty was a member of numerous national societies, including the APS, Women Exhibitors (WE) and Hawaiian Stamp Study Group, to name a few. In St. Louis, Betty was an active member of the Webster Groves Stamp Club, for which she served as program chair for many years, inviting outstanding speakers from all over the country. She was founder and leader of a St. Louis area exhibitors study group, the St. Louis Bears, and was longtime Exhibits Chair for the St. Louis Stamp Expo, one of the most competitive shows in the country and venue of the sale of much of her beloved material. Many guests visiting St. Louis were welcomed into her home, which she proudly called “The Nettles Philatelic Hotel.” Betty’s gracious hospitality was legendary, as were her Virginia-style crab cakes and Wakefield peanuts. In 2010, Betty was honored with the Elizabeth C. Pope Award from the St. Louis Stamp Expo for her great contributions to philately. It was fitting that Betty should be honored with the award named for – and first bestowed upon – her longtime friend Elizabeth C. Pope, who also had deep St. Louis philatelic roots. Betty will certainly be missed and remembered forever by all her ‘philatelic’ buddies!

D 1888 FIREWORKS SHOW ‘LAST DAYS OF POMPEII’ ADVERTISING CARD .......................................... PH $300-400

Special multicolored advertising card promoting British fireworks entrepreneur James Pain’s highly popular Pompeian pyrodrama titled ‘Pain’s Last Days of Pompeii,’ which originated in England and later toured throughout the United States and Australia. The performances strung together athletic, musical and dance elements over a simple Vesuvian narrative familiar to all audiences. This production was presented regularly at Coney Island in New York from 1879-1914. Pain required a sizable down payment to bring the spectacle to a city, usually for a two week run. Civic authorities had to build a multi-acre venue with a large body of water, a long platform, and seating for approximately 10,000 viewers. Efficient public transportation was also critical. The actors, however, were secondary, and local performers trained by Pain’s staff played most roles. This particular card shows vivid waterfront conflagration. Show was to be held July 14, 1888, at the Fireworks Amphitheatre, ‘Union Ave. and Narrow Gauge R.R.’ First of these cards we’ve seen! Fine, with only minor chipping and corner rounding. Ex-Elizabeth Nettles. 20

Among these are dozens of colorful and scarce illustrated advertising covers, Expo cancels, fair-related letters, invitations to events, St. Louis business cornercards promoting the fair, several official communications from various fair offices, mail addressed to Fair and more.

Years covered include 1876-79 (1878 x2), 1882-83 (1883 x2), 1885 and 1896 (split cover). St. Louis Fair covers are remarkable for their extremely detailed designs.

(1338Fj) 1971 FLAG OVER WHITE HOUSE 8¢ MULTI, HORIZ PAIR, IMPERF BETWEEN (x10) .................. PH

Very fine block of 4 with experimental ‘BALTIMORE’ inverted overprint. In addition to error, overprint (precancel) shows ‘square comma,’ ‘round comma’ setting types. Very scarce error produced entirely by the Bureau of Engraving & Printing and every bit as much of an invert as Jennys or Candleholders, but far more affordable. Very RARE, particularly with setting type differences. MINT never hinged.

(1284d) 1966 ROOSEVELT 6¢ GRAY BROWN, FULL BOOKLET PANE, IMPERF BETWEEN PAIR ........... PH $6000

Very RARE, if not unique booklet pane of 14-ish, with foldover creating one complete pair imperforate between and two additional ‘almosts.’ Significant gum damage from moisture and rusty staple holes at left and top, but still show-stealing exhibit piece. Datz references piece as ‘possibly unique,’ meaning it is significantly undervalued. (Datz $2420)

$350

Bottom margin block of 20 (10x2) containing 10 horizontal pairs imperforate between. Three plate #32584, three MAIL EARLY and three USE ZIP CODE in bottom margin. Fresh, MINT never hinged, very fine. Cool piece. Datz reports that about 600 such pairs exist. Scott $450 for pairs with no premium added for plate block.

(1338) 1968 FLAG OVER WHITE HOUSE 6¢ DARK BLUE, RED & GREEN, MISPERFED PLATE BLOCK WITH MARGINAL MARKINGS ....... PH

Very unusual lower right plate block (#31151) with perforation shift and miscut that reveals large, engraved dark blue rectangle at bottom, a marking from bottom of press sheet that should have been trimmed off. MINT never hinged.

Unusual rare variety, left margin single with vertical perforations completely omitted in margin, which shows trim line. Original gum, previously hinged. Unusual, probably unique. 1755

The printing stone was made of two panes of 100 consisting of two transfer stone units of 50 each.

There are approximately 13 unused stamps, most of which have original gum. And there are four pairs (one mint OG). Most of the used stamps have clean town cancels. Perhaps a few hidden faults, otherwise very fine selection which would take a lifetime to duplicate. The lot also includes the complete series of articles by Leonard H.

Specialized collection of more than 50 Cinderella items produced by noted forger S. Allan Taylor (leader of the ‘Boston Gang’) for the Little Wanderers Aid Society, a non-existent charity for orphans of the Civil War. Image on ‘stamps’ are reportedly Allan as a child. We’ve never seen so many or this much variety of these scarce Cinderellas! Includes 2¢, 5¢ and 10¢ stamps in red, brown, green, blue and black, printed on various colors of paper, including white, green, pink, violet and yellow, as well as glazed green, blue and orange! We doubt there’s another accumulation this large held by any individual. Ripe for additional study! Fine overall, with some faulty to be expected. Ex-Jim Czyl.

Very useful grouping of more than 3,500 poster stamps commemorating different events in varying quantities from 200 to 600 or so of each (retail $1-$7 or so each). Includes 1911 Boston Industrial and Educational Exposition (x200), 1913 New England Industrial and Educational Exposition (x300), 1916 America’s Electrical Week (x400), 1916 Newark 250th Anniversary Celebration (x300), 1918 Chicago International Livestock Expo (x400), 1920 National Foreign Trade Council (x400), 1923 Cleveland Lighting Fixture Market (x400), 1927 New England Sportsman’s Show (x300), undated ‘Keep Your W.S.S. pledge’ (x300) and undated ‘All First Class Mail by Air’ (x300).

Old-time forgeries include 5¢ in red, green, brown and purple, as well as 8¢ violet. Modern issues have some crazy varieties, as well as 8 1938 souvenir sheets (in 4 colors) from the 1938 Deseret Stamp Club banquet.

Thousands of faked, forged, counterfeit and reprinted Confederate General Issues and Provisionals, housed in 4 binders.

Childrey’ rubber stamp (buying stamps), number of stamp club labels (such as Crescent City) and show souvenir sheets, as well as covers and other items created for the Confederate Stamp Alliance over the years. Real value however, is in all the 19th century items, of which there are several hundred. They may be album weeds, but there are years’ worth of study available.
