Revenues-Cinderellas-Locals-Reprints-Essays :
450 Diff for $US50
I just purchased a lovely accumulation of these sort of "left field" issues from a retired dealer. He for some decades had been assembling these issues. This kind of material is about the hottest selling thing on the stamp market wolrdwide, as more and more collectors move into this interesting area of philately.
With
quite a bit of sorting out I have been able to assemble about FIFTY collections
of these fascinating issues, being about 450 different in each.
Cost
is only $A 95 per collection, which right now is a tad under $US 50!
Two or three of the 19th Century
postal/fiscal stamps from Victoria are valued retail at around that sum as FISCALLY
USED by Scott , so the other 445 stamps are basically 'free"
on that basis! You also get
with every parcel a set of the popular Australia "A99"
IMPERFORATE mini sheets, Scott retail $A65, which
alone are also worth about half of what the entire package costs!
For
collectors, dealers, or those wishing to break down and sell via
circuit books or on eBay etc this collection has LOTS of potential. I am
not promising stupid or untrue things like Penny Blacks or stamps cat £10,000
in here, but for a modest sum you WILL get very largely if not entirely
the contents of this list, or other better type of stuff:
======================================================================
1.
Australian States Postal Fiscals/Revenues with some nice High Values
including the popular bi-colour £5 Queen
Victoria in pretty well all the first 20 or so parcels i
assembled. (One per order on that particular stamp right now)
The Scott retail price for FISCAL USED of a few 19th Century stamps of Victoria
included here is over $US 50 (A$100) ALONE
..... more than the entire collection is costing you.
2.
Local issues of Batum, 32 stamps & 7 m/sheets issued 1992.
3.
Four complete sets each of 3 Triangulars from Rattlesnake
Island, on Lake Erie, USA. The USPS allowed these to
be used as they are triangular, and at that time USPS had never issued
triangular stamps! Initially they banned them from being carried in the
mails.
4.
Fourteen complete sets inc. mini sheets from The Principality
of The Hutt River Province.
The FACE value of these MUH sets is well over
$60, and retail is always face value+ in my experience.
This Principality actually exists in Western Australia and
"seceded" from Australia in 1969 and has been issuing superb
"local" stamps continuously for
nearly 30 years. It is always in the TV news etc.
It has its own passports, bestows its own Knighthoods in wonderful ceremonies,
pays and charges no tax, and charges no
GST! Australia Post now allows these Hutt River stamps
on the front of envelopes - they never used to. A great lot,
and many are from the early to mid 1990s, when one seldom sees these offered.
A perfect sideline "instant" collection of its own,
that if I offered for $75 in ads would sell pretty well anyway based on the face
value.
5.
Australian Strike label from the 1981 Postal Strike.
6.
Tibet Govt in Exile 1974 UPU
set 4, well printed, with inset pictures of the present
Dalai Lama. Designed by
Nelson Eustis (after a trip to personally organise it) and Ted Roberts,
in direct consultation with the Dalai Lama. These stamps were officially
recognised by both the UPU and the Indian Govt, (where the Tibetan
Government is based) until protests from the Chinese Government forced
them to be disallowed. Examples of these semi-official
stamps do exist on cover and are extremely rare and command high prices.
7.
AAT unofficial though postally valid m/sheets, and the famous 1954
Australian Antarctic Territory forerunner Cinderella
to the issued postage stamps. This is coming up to 50 years old,
and is always sought after.
8.
Unauthorised, illegal sets and forgeries from
Tchad, Niger Turkmenistan, Tajikistan & Kyrgistan - 13 complete sets
of 5, issued 1998. Great topicals, and don't laugh,
these sell for a few bucks a set.
9.
NZ poster stamp sheet.
This is an absolute beauty. 10
huge labels, printed in 4 colours in 1948,
with printers imprint, in large sheet of 7" x 9". These
are in SUPERB fresh MUH condition. In 20 years as a
dealer have never seen these before. Each stamp shows popular
tourist scenes around the South Island of NZ. See website for photo
of this one. Half Century old items like this are always popular,
and I saw this EXACT sheet in a dealer shop last week for $40.
Tourist scene "PALS" labels and the like from Australia
readily fetch many $100s per
sheetlet. A sheetlet of these in every parcel.
10.
Antarctic Helicopter Mail self
adhesive labels/stamps - popular area. Used on mail carried to and from
the Cape Roberts Project, a multi National drilling project in Antarctica.
11.
Mint full gum reprint of the 1919 Ross Smith
England/Australia first airmail vignette sheetlet with margins. This
sells for $20,000 as the genuine issue, and is the premiere Aerophilatelic
stamp ever issued from this Asia/Pacific region. Many "Seven
Seas Stamps" printed albums have spaces for this sheet, hence demand
is high, even as a reprint.
12.
Official Greenpeace Antarctica $6 mini/sheet depicting Penguins, seal etc. Produced by Greenpeace
and funds raised went to Antarctic Research and global environmental efforts
etc. Retail $10 each.
13.
TWENTY different and complete se-tenant sets of 6 stamps issued 2000 from
Angola, the Unitas rebel held territory which
comprises approx 10% of the war-torn country. These issues have been
sighted used on cover to countries outside Angola and appear to have passed
successfully through the International mails. These are SUPERB
looking topicals as you can see from my website scans, and have
surprisingly good retail due to their appearance and unusual background.
14.
Official Qantas charter flight to Antarctica overfly
50c Airmail labels in sheetlet of 8, which were affixed to flown covers in
singles. The singles are elusive, and full sheets are quite
scarce and always keenly sought by aerophilatelists. Only 25 on
hand, so pot luck on these! Retail $40 a sheet. These
very low level tourist flights were cancelled after the disaster when a NZ 747
Jumbo plane crashed into Mount Erebus losing all souls on board.
15.
Australian stamp exhibition overprints on valid
issued stamps. Also Exhibition sheetlets etc.
16.
Reprints of the Australian 1930's 3d unissued Blue
Mountains Essay. Printed 4 colours in sheetlet form, and is a good seller
at about $10. Depicts "The Three
Sisters" famous geological formation.
17.
Range of complete sets issued 1997 by Buriatia, a province of Russia. These
issues are strictly locals, and
regular Russian stamps have to be used on mail travelling internationally or to
other parts of the Russian Federation. Great topicals/thematics here.
18.
Official NZ PO "Black Print" Die
proof sheetlet of the $1 circular Kiwi stamp.
19.
The hottest item on the regular stamp market - tossed in as a REAL extra bonus
on this offer! The "Australia
99" IMPERFORATE Navigator set 6 in mini sheet pair superb
Mint unhinged. These had only 15,000 sets ever produced, the
smallest number of anything sold widely by Australia Post in Decades.
The new Scott 2002 Catalogue has this set has a
$US 32 retail ($A65).
Scott 1727d/1728d and I understand Gibbons will also dramatically increase the
price in their next edition.
www.GlenStephens.com/Sept99Text.html has
photos and detail on these and an official letter from David Maiden, head of
Australia Post Philatelic outlining the tiny numbers sold.
etc,
etc ..... there are all sorts of other odds and sods tossed in but too hard to
list out here.
================================================================
No
parcel will be identical which goes without saying, but will include
pretty much all the above, or very close to it, and other items,
and will ALL be well worth the $US50 cost, I promise you. On some
items I have only 10-20 pieces, and of some I have far larger quantities.
For anyone who feels they may like to buy extra stock of any parts of the
parcels, like the Hutt River or Rattlesnake Island, or Angola
Unitas Rebel stamps etc, please le me know. For some of these I can
make you a wholesale lot offer.
The first 25 orders will also get a NZ "Birds"
Specimen PO pack of Birds set 6 to $10 - face value $N.Z. 25, issued for 'NZ
1990'. Superb MUH - SG cat £7. For the first 25 orders
(one pack per customer)
The
price again for all of this is only $A 95, or less than $US 50 right now,
or £33!
I
know there are many dealers, re-sellers and folks who will want extras for
swaps, eBay sales etc, or just to "tuck away"
so will offer FIVE of these parcels for $A 400, which is around $US 200 today.
GST is not charged on overseas orders, but must be added for orders mailed to an Australian address.
All
postage and insurance is extra as always. There will be one of two flat
rates whether you order one or five collections - $A15 ($US 7.50)
Registered Airpost ANYWHERE the world using the very large Australia Post
International Satchel. For those of you in Canada, NZ, Europe etc
with nasty VAT/GST taxes and customs hassles etc, these
whizz pass customs/vatmen etc
without incident in 99.999% of cases in my long experience, as they are supposed
to contain printed matter only, (which stamps are!) and NO value
needs to be declared on the outside.
For
ALL orders in Australia a flat $A5 will cover Registered airpost ANYWHERE in the
country.
Much
of this has a very strong thematic/topical flavour and includes themes such as :
Animals,
Birds, Gorillas, Elephants, Sports, Aviation, Locomotives, Cars, Flora,
etc etc etc
