This is the
electronic/internet
version of our normal paper catalogue. Some changes have been effected
so as to save file space and transfer/download time. Most illustrations

need.

the following
order; Lots 1-159 Mixed Lots Lots 160-190 Cinderella Literature Lots 439-528 United Kingdom Lots 191-438 Lots by country A-Z, excluding U.K. |

The figure at the end of each description is our estimate, in pounds sterling. Bids are accepted above or below this figure, although bids below about 75% or 80% estimate only have a tiny chance of success. Estimates are in Pounds Sterling do not include the 10% buyer's premium.
After the main listings you will find various information and instructions. This is followed by a sample bid form, and a copy of the the notes that appear on the reverse of our bid forms.
This is a public auction, in which written/telephone/e-mail bids are also accepted. If you are bidding with us for the first time, please bid by two of these methods with the same bids (e.g. by post and by phone, or by telephone and by e-mail), or bid in good enough time for us to get back in touch with you with any queries.
NEW BIDDERS; Please note that bidders who are not already known to us are required to bid in the first instance by two different methods. The options available are email, telephone, or post. New customers attending one of our sales in person for the first time, and intending to bid, are invited to make themselves known before the sale starts. This saves the auctioneer from having to ask for a name during the sale. |

Page 2 Estimate.
David Jefferies was
well know for
many things, amongst which were his great knowledge of and enthusiasm
for the
two subjects we are offering in today’s auctions; Cinderellas and Scottish Postal History.
In the line of Cinderellas, he seems to have
collected
everything that looked the slightest like a stamp, and he drew no
boundaries.
He was forever being approached by collectors and dealers asking for
help in identifying
odd labels, or looking for background information.
We
are pleased to offer for sale here the material he disparagingly
referred to as
“Jefferies’ Junk” !
Condition
throughout is generally good, though there are often some faults. We
only mention
condition in descriptions if it is notably good or bad. Almost all
stamps are
mounted with hinges. Sometimes “semi-postals” are included in country
collections. Catalogue prices are from Barefoot, unless otherwise
stated.
For
the guidance of any bidders who are not regular customers, there are no
reserves on any lots, but lots are not normally sold for less than
about
two-thirds of the estimates. In practice, lots tend to sell for above
rather
than below estimate, and sometimes well above. Unsolds (if any) are not
available for purchase after the auction, but will be offered in a
later sale.
In
some places it has been difficult to decide into which catalogue some
items
should appear. For example see “Parcel Labels” in Scottish Postal
History,
which could also have found a place in Cinderella.

***
Cinderella
Stamps; anything
taking the form of a stamp, but that is not
issued for the purpose of prepaying postage. These can be government
issues
(such as stamps to show the payment of tax or fees), other “official”
types
(for example issued by charities, organisers of exhibitions, political
parties,
etc.), all the way through so many other categories to items produced
by
individuals.
“Cinderella” ?
Just as Cinders was left
behind while everyone went to the ball, so did these other types of
stamps,
while everyone concentrated on simply the postal adhesives. (However,
some
people did eventually appreciate their beauty . . . )
