Catalogue approx. £9,000.
Lot 164
An impressive mostly mint collection in a boxed SG hingeless album with few empty spaces, the Chalon heads all used with nine imperfs mostly in reasonable condition for these difficult issues, followed by a nearly full page of over twenty perf types to 1/- values with and without watermark. Then from 1873 the collection is virtually all mint, the odd light blemish early on but generally in excellent quality, with 1870s to 5/-, 1882-1900 QV heads with various perfs to 1/-, the 5d with back-print advertising, first pictorials to 5/- Mt. Cook, the later types 1900-07 to the 2/- with possible evidence of mixed perfs horizontally (would be SG.347, cat. £1,700), the 5/- being very lightly used. The rest of the 20th century regular issues are virtually complete incl. 1906 Christchurch and 1913 Aukland exhibition sets, 1926 high values and 1931 smiling boy set, through to great back of the book with most officials incl. 1907-11 (no 1d but two 6d, total cat. £950), 1933 5/- (cat £325), etc, as well as an interesting range of SG-listed and unlisted QV stamp duty to £5, 1930s/‘40s arms postal fiscals incl. 1940 surcharges trio to 11/- on 11/- yellow (SG.F187/F189, cat. £495), etc. Much more here to explore with potential for better types on the more complex issues. Aside from a few space-fillers in the classics a most attractive collection. Catalogue will exceed £10,000, without counting SG.347 or any of the Chalon head issues.
Lot 192
An exhilarating mint and used collection housed in a boxed SG hingeless album, from the same collector as the British Commonwealth Lots 107, 117, 163 and 164. Among the highlights here is an extraordinary block of five 1840 2d blue with number '12' in Maltese cross cancels, with catalogue £90,000 as singles. The extreme lower right stamp is completely sound with huge margins on two of the outside edges having benefitted from the irregular spacing of the impressions. The two stamps on the left side are badly damaged and the central stamp is repaired, among other lesser faults, but that is somewhat academic since this must be one of the largest multiples of this rarity in existence - a thrilling relic of the early penny post. The collection continues with an attractive embossed 1/- green, 1867 10d brown cds and 5/- wmk Maltese cross with neat central cds (small thin), the mint/unused starting with 1872 4d vermilion plate 13 and 1878 6d grey plate 16, 1881 3d rose plate 20 mint (cat. £900), 1883 3d on 3d lilac mint (cat.£650), 1883-84 lilac/greens with mint range incl. 6d (cat.£625) and the high values with perfection on the 5/- crimson (hooded London cds) and 10/- deep ultra (crisp Belfast cds). Then fresh mint Jubilee set (cat.£650) and used £1 green (cat.£800), the KEVII mint to 1/- and used high values to 10/-, the latter again beautiful with unusual small format registered cancels, followed by excellent KGV from Downey heads to seahorses 1913-19 mint to 10/-, the PUC £1 used (unobtrusive faults from cancelation), all the way through to good pre-decimal QEII. The collection goes out as it came in, with a bang: the powerful officials section including many high-catalogue issues. These are all requiring further expertization, however in the context of this collection they cannot be ruled out. The most promising in our opinion are the very attractive used 5/- rose I.R. Official with 19/07/1894 Glasgow Accounts Branch pmk (cat. £2,500), the Govt. Parcels 9d green used (cat.£1,200) and last but not least the QV 10d Office of Works mint (cat.£ 7,250). It goes without saying that this quite unusual collection must be inspected thoroughly.
