2 Page 2 PPA Preamble Welcome to Auction 109. This is a slightly larger auction with over 4000 lots and that ensures there is a wide range of material for you to browse through. As usual our auction starts with cinderellas and coins and continues with our popular Picture Postcard section. Remember that postcards are often placed in other parts of the catalogue so it is worth looking throughout the catalogue. If you have access to the internet go to our website and simply select Auction by Topic and then, from the long list of topics (about 250 different), choose Picture Postcards to see all the postcard lots in the auction; and all of them are illustrated. We then have Australian stamps, with many Roos and Georgian Heads all the way through to modern decimals, including varieties, postal history, postal stationery etc. Some of the more notable are an MUH Single Wmk 4d olive horned emu (#329), a Sm Mult perf 14 1d green pelure paper pair (#374), a Sm Mult perf 14 4d olive flaw in 4th bloom (#396) and, as you have come to expect, many plate varieties are listed, particularly in the Georgian Heads sections but also throughout the catalogue. The Australian Colonies/States section has a good range of both stamps and postmarks, including a selection of numerals. As expected there is a wide selection of datestamps from all states. This section also has a broad range of registered covers, particularly from NSW, so postmark collectors will have another field day. Interest in registration labels is increasing so many of you will be pleased to see a group of ACT labels (#916) and NSW labels (#983-91). Some of the more interesting lots in this section are NSW Sydney Views & Laureates (#925-7), 783 rays (#1031), 1676 BN (#1049), 1913 Nettleton on Registration Envelope (#1154), Qld 73 (#1240), 191 (#1250), 195 (1251), Tas 1925 Gwandalan (#1597), VIC 1 salmon (#1744), 349 BN (#1838), 1967 McMahons Creek (#2163), 1960 Morgiana (#2227), 1957 Seymour Mil PO No 17 (#2478), 1961 Shannon Valley (#2484), 1967 Shelley (#2490), WA 1923 Newcarnie (#2674). There are over 1500 lots in the rest-of-the-world section so there is plenty for everyone, including BCOF set of 7 on cover (#2469), Canada ½d (#2848), range of Fiji postmarks (# ), France Fr (#3026). Guam 1937 cover (#3225), New Zealand 4/- Postal Fiscal block of 4 with offset (#3580), Tristan da Cunha 1954 pictorial set (#3906) & USA 1949 James Cooper Sturgill FDC (#3970). We always have an extensive range of military and censored covers and this auction is no exception. While there is obvious strength in Australian & British WWI & WWII material you will find much outside of theses areas. To help military collectors, and others with specific collecting interests, to find the lots that will interest them we provide and extract service. This service saves you time and helps to keep our costs down. When you provide us with your collecting interests you can specify whether you just collect stamps, postal history or postal stationery, whether you collect mint or used, what periods you collect, what countries you collects etc, so you can be quite detailed. In most cases we can provide an extract which is well matched to your collecting needs. The best way of bidding is to use our secure website However you can always use the printed bidsheet that comes with the catalogue and fax or mail it to us, you can also phone your bids through if you prefer. We will take bids any way they come. David, Cathy & Keith. Auction :00am Sunday 24th April 2010

3 Auction :00am Sunday 24th April 2010 Page 3 HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM OUR CATALOGUE [These notes are offered as a guide to understanding the information given as symbols.] 1. Firstly, we have the lot number. If it is in bold and underlined, the item is illustrated: e.g (The actual location of the illustration is given at the end of the description: e.g. {Page 41.37} is position 37 on page 41.) 2. The second column contains a symbol, which represents the item(s) in the lot: ** Mint, unmounted o.g. * Mint, mounted o.g. W Unused, no gum D Piece ( Postmarks lots) * Cover or card A Albums and accessories L Literature P Proof S Stamp ( Postmarks lots) or, in the case of used stamps, covers & Postal Stationery a grading of the cancellation: V Neat postmark, leaving most of the stamp design clear F Neat postmark, across at least half of the stamp design G Untidy or indistinct postmark H Heavy or poorly struck postmark 3. The third column gives an overall quality assessment for the lot, from A to D. The same standard applies to mint and used stamps, to covers, postal stationery, literature etc. An item graded A is very fine; it has no faults. B items are fine and may have minor imperfections. A C item will exhibit obvious faults. Items in poor condition are rated D. Occasionally, an item in truly superb condition will be rated A+. This grading is used sparingly and is not applied to modern material, which one would normally expect to be in very fine to superb condition. An otherwise very fine item which has a subsidiary problem may be allocated an A-. This may be a stamp with writing or a hinge remainder on the reverse. A cover may have a receiver s endorsement on the face. The halves of a letter card may be stuck together. A book may have a previous owner s notations. Whether this factor makes the item an A- or B is a matter of degree. 4. The fourth column is relevant to perforated stamps, and also to lots listed under the sub-heading Postmarks. For perforated stamps, this column gives a grading for both centring and perforations. The letter A to D relates to centring. A stamps are very well centred; B stamps are slightly off-centre; C stamps are significantly off-centre, and may have the perforations slightly into the design; D stamps are badly off-centre, with the perforations well into the design. [NB: These gradings are the same for all perforated issues, whether Australian Decimals, De La Rue Colonial keyplates or 19 th Century American issues. However, it should be understood that for many issues poor centring is the norm. Thus C, and even D, gradings should be expected and accepted. For such issues a B stamp will be above-average and an A stamp will be considered an exceptional copy.] Following the letter A to D is a number 1 to 4. A stamp with all perforations intact is 1. One or two short perfs, or normal rough perforations, will drop the grading to 2. More notable perforation problems such as the perfs down one side being trimmed will result in a 3 grading. A stamp with major perforation faults will be a 4. [NB: A stamp graded A1 is well-centred with all perforations intact. In many cases, particularly with modern issues, this is the norm. However, for many issues, B2 or even C3 may be normal and quite acceptable.] For lots listed under the sub-headings Postmarks and Ship/Paquebot Markings, this column gives a grading for quality of the strike, and completeness. Quality is graded from A (very fine) to D (poor). Completeness is graded from 1 (complete) to 5 (identifiable only). + is used for superb strikes; - is used for postmarks which are lightly struck, a little doubled, or otherwise a bit short of the mark. 5. The 5th column contains the general description of the of the lot and should be self-evident, however 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'. 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. 6. The symbols in the second, third and fourth columns, and the illustrations of lots, form part of the lot description. 7. Figures in the right-hand column are our estimate of value. You may bid at, above or below estimate. The reserve price for almost every lot is 80% of estimate. Bids below this level will not be considered, except lots which have an estimate of $5 or less when bids below the reserve may be considered at the auctioneer s discretion. 8. Australian residents will have GST added to the hammer price of all lots. 9. 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 cnr corner blk block 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
