Welcome to our 81st sale, which is an online auction only, comprising 1,151 lots featuring a wide range of Australasian and All-World material.
There are 300 lots of Australian Colonies, with strength in New South Wales and Queensland, and featuring a range of scarce and rare stamps and postal history. A highlight is the study of the Moreton Bay District, the various numeral obliterators shown in the finest quality, and complemented a wonderful group of covers. There is also some fine Tasmanian postal history, and good groups of both New South Wales and Victorian postage due stamps.
Australian Commonwealth has some useful Kangaroo issues and a wider range of George V stamps concentrating on the plate varieties, with strength in the 1d values. The Decimal period includes the extensive Frama collection of Richard Peck which has been broken into 30 lots.
The postage due issues includes a wide range of the monocolour issues including examples of rarely offered perforation varieties, and a selection of some of the finest covers. The bicoloured issues are also extensive, but are highlighted by three of the most important postage due rarities - the 1909-10 6d Perf. 11 used (the only example in private hands and arguably the Commonwealth’s rarest basic stamp), and monogram blocks of 6 of the 1913-21 10/- and £1 thin paper.
The postal stationery has a fine range of George V Fullface and Kangaroo lettercards, a previously unrecorded 1½d George V proof, and the 1½d on 2d Red George V with the view of The Spit, a great rarity.
The small All World section includes a very extensive annotated accumulation of the fascinating local Pakistan overprints on India.
