This auction features further portions of the collection of the late David C. Jefferies of Edinburgh. In this auction there are some mixed lots, various themes, a fine section of Scottish exhibitions, some postcards, and a selection of UK and Scottish postal history. We hold more of his Scottish postal history for future sale. The catalogue for the special “Scouting” auction on 20 June should accompany this list. In a break from the convention of vendor anonymity, should any bidders be interested, we will be able to confirm whether any lot is from his collection.
