Mail Auction

Mail Auction

Welcome to our August 25th Mail Sale.

The Summer in Bathurst has been very hot and humid. We have had days where the temperatures have been well over 30+ degrees celsius - 85+ fahrenheit. We had a wonderful day for our annual lobster party. Sorry no pictures, however fun and lobster was had by all.

Our August sale which closes on the 25th. offers almost 5000 expertly described – and often pictured - lots included and several areas which deserve special mention.

There is a strong selection of US singles with used examples of Scott numbers 28, 26B and 77 likely to attract attention. The unused USA #122 is also highly desirable.

While it is still summer, those of us in Canada know that winter is not far away. With almost 200 large lots in the Canada section alone, it is a perfect time to prepare for those longer evenings. In the Canada small lots, look for Small Queens overprinted “Specimen”. They are not offered very often and add significantly to a collection of this popular field. The semi-official air mails and complete booklets are also very well represented.

The British Commonwealth offers both desirable single stamps and an impressive selection of larger collections.

We continue to enlarge our offerings of Postal History and in this sale you will find many uncommon rates – particularly from Newfoundland. Lot # 3292 is a VF used example of the Nova Scotia six penny – a handsome stamp that is absent from most collections. For airmail enthusiasts, the Newfoundland section offers mint examples of both the DO-X and the Balbo.

Be sure to leave time to browse the Last Chance section – some of our Lotters’ most interesting work is featured in this section which holds such things as impressive Hong Kong collections and USA larger lots.
