Take a look below - some amazing low prices. The AUD will bounce back - history tells us this - the SMART ones, are the ones who lock in near this LOWEST FOR YEARS rate.

June 1 here now - FIRST official day of WINTER downunder - The $A has weakened badly in recent times - a SUPERB time for Americans to buy up! It is like a 'Turkey Shoot' as they say there! A $A1,000 piece costs an American only about $US650 today. Even STERLING (near 2 to 1) and Euro looks strong!



Local buyers can't even THINK about buying from overseas now - buy from the list below at the exact prices you see - no nasty 20%-25% Auction Buyers fee, PLUS credit card fees added on, and no 10% import duty on top of the quite terrible exchange rates!
Stockmarkets have foundered globally, Dow Jones has been lurching around wildly like a very drunken sailor - down near 10% during 2022. Tech heavy NASDAQ finished down 34% during 2022! And 2023 is soft too, as we know. Banks are failing and faltering globally. And the oil markets, Gold and commodity prices, and currency markets, have been WILDLY erratic due to the Ukraine tragedy, and interest rates are historically low. Good stamps just keep sneaking up in value, despite all this turmoil. NEVER been a wiser time to buy.

Buy stamps off me, and you plant a TREE! I just paid for 100s of trees in advance, partnering with this hugely successful company, to be planted and maintained in a Western Australia rural corridor, which reduces salinity, and increases CO2 absorption, and outputs Oxygen. This superb and proven project employs a lot of Aboriginal people there to re-afforest and maintain their traditional area, and these trees, and we can ALL our small bit to help the planet, assisted financially by collectors. I am unaware of ANY other stamp dealer doing this globally, sadly. My initial aim is to plant 20,000 Trees funded totally by collectors.



Buy a box of current $1.20 Peel and Stick stamps and save $650! - In the past I have almost *NEVER* had current letter rate stamps in peel and stick to offer at well under face. Bought a Sprintpack printer carton with 20 x sealed boxes of 100 = 2,000 stamps in the box. 'Native Animals' - Platypus etc. Very pretty stamps as you can see. The rate increased to $1.20 on January 3, 2023, so these will be historically valid for you to use up for YEARS - the last price increase was January 2020. STOCK UP now - once sold, they can't be replaced by me. A business bought them early January to do a client mail out, but decided last minute to use a mass email program instead, as they could attach large PDF images that way, and save huge mail AND the even far larger print costs. Lots of senders use white plastic bag outer packaging - these stick tight - normal lickable gum does NOT of course. Huge plus.

GB 1883 10/- Blue Queen Victoria, quite Superb Used, SG Cat $1,550 for just $A499! - These stamps were used on the very heaviest parcels - 10/- back 140 years back, was $100s cost in today’s money. Most were used to Australia, as that was the highest mail zone rating. Being licked onto heavy parcels for 10,000 miles by sea, they got badly banged around, and scuffed, and easily torn, thinned, creased, and indented. AND the UK Parcel Post cancellers in this era were generally the very heavy inked bootheel ‘Killers’ - totally obliterating the design most often. And being a pale blue colour, all scuffs and transit marks show readily. Absolutely lovely colour - these often fade badly, due to the security ink used.
The deceased owner had a receipt for a lot of money as ‘Cobalt’ (Cat £8,250) but I do not agree. Clean and flat and fresh and attractive, excellent perfs and centering for these, as you can see, very light cancel for era, and totally free of the usual hinges, thins, creases, and typical gook and gunk and ageing etc, near always seen on these, after 140 years. You can buy faded, ugly, super heavy cancelled, off centred roughies of these for $250. Or pay $499 for SUPERB - no contest when YOU sell. SG 183 Cat £785=$A1,550 as FU. Under ONE THIRD of SG for a top grade copy - $A499 - Stock 694JQ

1913 Kangaroo First Watermark 3d Deep Olive, Large “OS”, fresh MVLH - Cat $750+++ for $A499!: - A surprisingly scarce stamp in ANY shape. This LARGE 'OS' size puncture was quickly dropped within a few months, as the huge perfin meant the stamps tore apart when being separated on this coarse tough long paper fibre paper, where even tearing apart NON OS pairs is impossible, without ripping out a perf or three. SG #O5. lean and fresh MVLH original flat gum, and gorgeous deep rich colour with a FAINT hinge touch. With 2010 Expert Photo Certificate - ‘Mint lightly hinged - fresh original gum’.
Even FAIR centering is truly scarce on any large ‘OS’, as the Government printer deliberately put aside BAD centred sheets for puncturing for the “Free Government use” and most are SHOCKERS, as you would know if you have looked about. Deep rich colour, and also this has exceptional perfs for any 1913 Roo - near all First Wmks of any value have pulled perfs on one or both sides as you know. Unusually nice appearance for these stamps, that near always have really “wonky” and ripped out perfs. 105% genuine of course, and Juzwin pricelist says add 100% for better centred examples - so a $1,500 stamp really! ACSC 12ba $A750. For the astute buyer, who realises this is a 1 in 50 example. Just $A499 - Stock 457JK

1960s Formular BANK Aerograms - Northern Territory to GREECE! The three Formular Aerograms above were invoiced at about $A250 at public auction, over 20 years back by Rodney Perry Auctions. WHY??? Three Airletters/Aerograms from oz Banks to Greece. One from Tennant Creek, Northern Territory, the others from Darwin - NT to Greece - what a combo! Decimal and pre-decimal - nice cut-off pairing. All with cool and colourful bank forms and receipts printed inside. They are the unstamped FORMULAR types. Why banks used those I have no clue. And WHY did they sell for that - way above estimate? This lot comes complete with the original sale invoice, and the Rod Perry original lot card. The 10d blue was ‘Approval Style 37’, and is not often seen - and that was not even illustrated in the Perry sale cat. Anyway with an estimate $150, clearly there was a bit of bidding, even then, to get it to where it was sold. Over a half Century old now.

1913 Kangaroo First Watermark 2/- Brown Large “OS”, FU - Cat $500 for $A200!: A surprisingly scarce stamp in ANY shape. The values above 1/- were seldom sent to Federal Offices, as usage was negligible in this 1d post era. Usually 2 x 1/-, or 4 x 6d or more likely 6 x 4d were used, which were all held in large numbers, and as the 4d was Registered rate, it is still quite common used. This LARGE 'OS' size puncture was quickly dropped within a few months, as the huge perfin meant the stamps tore apart when being separated on this coarse tough long paper fibre paper, where even tearing apart NON OS pairs is impossible, without ripping out a perf or three. Unusually light - MELBOURNE cds cancel - also unusual on these hi-vals, that generally got the huge thick parcel KILLERS! Clean and fresh, and totally free of the gunk and gook, and aging, and old hinges that often hide faults.
Even FAIR centering is truly scarce on any large ‘OS’, as the Government printer deliberately put aside BAD centred sheets for puncturing for the “Free Government use” and most are SHOCKERS, as you would know if you have looked about. Deep rich colour, and also this has exceptional perfs for any 1913 Roo - near all First Wmks of any value have pulled perfs on one or both sides as you know. Unusually nice appearance - these 1913 ‘First’ Watermarks used a strange horizontal grain, long fibre paper, which was quickly abandoned after a year or two of use. This meant near ALL 1913 Roos have one or more ripped out, or very short perfs on either/both sides, due to the tough fibres not tearing apart easily. Try very carefully tearing apart a pair of cheap 1d mint Roos etc - you WILL rip out some perfs!

A British Post Offices In China, Registered cover to GRAZ Austria, then redirected to Innsbruck, Austria. With violet straight line ‘REGISTERED’ handstamp top left, and marked by sender as ‘Via Suez’. Has a violet Registered box - SHANGHAI G.P.O. and all stamps are cancelled with ‘REGISTERED SHANGHAI G.P.O.’ ovals of ‘NOV 6-22’. Suez back stamps inc Alexandria Egypt, Nov 13, and feint GRAZ November 21, and bold arrival after redirection, to ‘INNSBRUCK 23-XII-22’ Franking on 2 sides are Cat £25 as used OFF cover, and SG notes the scarcity of any covers bearing these CHINA overprints, rating them at ‘From 30 x’ on cover = £750=$A1,500.
Wonderfully clean and flat and fresh cover, for over a century old, and very neatly opened on edge. A lovely quality stiff high gsm paper was used for the cover - clearly acid free, so it has stayed flat and perfect and foxing free. A MIRACLE for anything ex Asia a century back! 20c was the correct Registered letter rate I understand, for a double weight letter, and this surely is the ONLY cover still extant from Shanghai to AUSTRIA of all places, using these scarce overprints? They were issued March 1922, so used in November are clearly not Philatelic, and given all things CHINA are red hot, and the probably unique usage of these British Post Offices In China - a cool piece on VERY many fronts. $A400 - Stock 782KO

Australia 1913 9d Roo Perf Small ‘OS’ - attractive MUH Cat $1,500 for $A525 – All the 1913 issue in MUH are scarce, and the ‘OS’ perfins even moreso, and indeed their cat values are around the same as unpunctured vals, which is crazy, as they are FIFTY times scarcer mint. All mint OS in the 1913 series are super scarce. They were never, EVER, sold to the public or dealers in Mint, hence their great scarcity thus today. Decent centering is truly scarce on any early 'OS', as the Government printer deliberately put aside BAD centred sheets for puncturing for the 'Free Government use' and most are SHOCKERS, as you would know if you have looked about!


Deep rich colour, and this one also has good perfs for any 1913 Roo - near all First Watermarks of any value have pulled perfs on one or both sides as you will know, due to the tough, long fibre horizontal weave paper, which was never used again. Dealers like Juzwin have always added a 100% Premium on pricelists for nicer centred copies, mint or used, on 1913 OS issues, making this a pricey stamp!

Australia 1932 5/- Bridge top margin Unhinged Mint, only $A850! - The stamp missing from 99% of Australian collections! FAR better perfs and centering than usually seen on these - remember, these were printed on what was essentially cheap, coarse weave, blotting paper, which hinge thins and tears VERY readily. And also “fluffy” or “woolly” ugly perfs are the 100% normal on these. Printed at the height of The Great Depression, and hand gummed, with the crude sandy or ‘suntanned’ Gum Arabic, as we have here. Guaranteed ORIGINAL gum unhinged stamp - even the margin is MUH! There are many corner CTO copies about, but MINT are understandably very tough. And UNHINGED mint extra so after near a century. SG 143, £425=$A850 for HINGED mint. ACSC for unhinged is $A1,500. (Regummers can’t do margin or corner copies of course.) The Centenary of this stamp is on us soon, and prices will increase then.
Then, these were all single line perforated by hand, in stacks of 20 sheets - one row at a time up, then the sheets were turned round 90° and ran through again, so centering, and all 4 corners were mostly terrible. On a block 4, all stamps are different centred as you can see from Auction photos, with weird corner perfs. Only 72,800 stamps ever printed, our rarest stamp, and near all of those were corner “CTO’d” for the Specimen packs, so mint copies are RARE, and actual postal used are seldom seen. In The Great Depression 5/- was a fortune to spend on a mint collector stamp, when anyone who HAD a job got only 10/- a week pay.

Ask me about the other superb fresh MUH Roos from same UK source. Fresh flat *MUH ORIGINAL gum* - 105% guaranteed by me - regummers cannot do pairs or margin pieces anyway etc. INCREDIBLE perfs and centering for ANY 1913 Roos, which were printed on a tough and tenacious long grain paper fibre, that was never used again, as perfs ripped out vertically on near all stamps - look at the your 1d red even! Flat fresh WHITE original gum, even the margin is totally unhinged - amazing after 109 years. ACSC 12, $A1,350 and PLUS a margin added on top with this centering and Interpanneau margin. Owner had it noted as 'Heavy Retouch Around Cape York Coastline' which appears correct and adds more value. $A700 or $US475 - Stock 524VC

Multiple Crown CA watermark, on the chalk faced paper, as with all their high values. Attractive looking unused, with nice bright unrubbed colour after 111 years, and good perfs, superbly printed by De La Rue in London. 500 Rupees was probably a £20 Kangaroo, not a £2 Roo type face value! As evidence - their highest Queen Victoria face value was just the 1899, R2.25! SG 322 normal mint is £8,500=$A17,000 and SG even lists FISCAL cancels at £400(!!) - so a 'SPECIMEN' is the only viable option clearly, and only 500 of these were ever made, and all were forwarded to UPU countries, where most still reside in Archive collections.

NSW 1908 *Great White Fleet* USA visit Postcard set PRISTINE condition Mint! What an amazing survivor. The 1d Red NSW Shield imprinted value. This pretty postcard is ALWAYS popular globally. An OFFICIAL ‘COMMONWEALTH OF AUSTRALIA’, post 1901 super sought era. This is now 115 years old, and most survivors really show their age. The card stock used was hard and brittle, and near all I have seen, have some or all corners broken off, or are badly creased, or corners are badly rounded from wear and handling etc, as the cheap card does that, and then both the highly glazed sides also get marks and scuffs and gunk and foxing on them too. This was mailed to a pen pal or relative in Boston 115 years back and I bought the USA Estate as family later moved here, and they were still in a glassine inscribed: ''Jim - a souvenir of the American Fleet visit for you.’’ And it stayed in there for 115 years! So the corners are razor sharp - the colours are incredibly bright and vivid on the flags and are superb as you can see. Is it worth $A125 in this superior grade - of COURSE it is. The same way a MUH Kangaroo from this Century++ old era, sells for 5 times a hinged copy - QUALITY costs money, but when you sell, you always get it back!
From Wikipedia - 'The Great White Fleet was the popular nickname for the United States Navy battle fleet that completed a circumnavigation of the globe from 16 December 1907 to 22 February 1909 by order of U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt. It consisted of four squadrons, each consisting of a battleship with escorts. Roosevelt sought to demonstrate growing American military power and blue-water navy capability. The scope of such an operation was unprecedented in U.S. history, as ships had to sail from all points of the compass to rendezvous points and proceed according to a carefully-orchestrated, well-conceived plan. It would involve almost the entire operational capability of the U.S. Navy. The Great White Fleet was the nickname given to the fleet. The name was derived from the 'white' colour in which the fleet's ships were painted. In countries like Australia and New Zealand, the Fleet was greeted with celebration. In Japan, school children in their thousands greeted the Fleet waving miniature US flags.'

Hong Kong 1938 KGVI $10 Top Value - Green and Violet First Colours SUPERB - one of the scarcest KGVI high values of the entire Commonwealth. Gibbons advise the printer De La Rue was bombed in December 1940, and that the Japanese invaded and occupied Hong Kong in 1941. The main issue of the $10 were the later printed $10 Purple and Blue colours. So this stamp MINT is incredibly hard to locate, and the chalk surface is ‘unrubbed’ as they usually are. Was sold to me as ‘MUH’ but on very close examination, has had a feint hinge touch. A stamp missing from near EVERY KGVI collection - even used are $100s. SG £750=$A1,500. A superb example, vibrant fresh bright colour, and with excellent perfs and centering - was in the UK most of its life, and has far fresher Gum Arabic than they generally have.

Australia 1915 Second Watermark Roo Perf “OS” Fine Used - just $A299! - The priciest 5/- watermark by a long way. Clean fresh copy, excellent perfs and centering for these. With light dated clear dated Queensland 1917 cds, and not the usual huge smeary rubber thick lettered “Killers” used on Government parcels! This Second Watermark (emergency war-time use on the KGV watermark paper) was only on sale for a short time during WWI, before the Third watermark 5/- was issued. Only one printing of 679,920 were ever issued. Issued in the middle of WWI, as Germans were sinking merchant ships bringing the correct Roo watermark paper from the UK. Good centering is truly scarce on any early OS, as the Government printer deliberately put aside BAD centred sheets for puncturing for the “Free Government use” and most copies are SHOCKERS, as you would know if you have looked about.

These as we all know, usually have ugly “fluffy” perfs barely punched out, so this is miles superior to most, which also have centering all over the place. Deep rich, unfaded, GLOWING Chrome Yellow colour. Clean and flat and very fresh, with no typical aging, and totally free of usual thins, creases, hinges, gook or gunk on back, to hide faults.

Australia 1963 Navigators full set of 8 attractive *MLH or VFU* $A160: If there is just ONE stamp absent from any QE2 collection of Australia it is the £2 Admiral King stamp. Every time. THE priciest Australian stamp post-war. Super high value issued late 1964, and replaced a year or later by the new Decimal $4 of same design, so a VERY short life. £2 Admiral King stamp and the ship “Mermaid” is the KEY post war stamp from Australia and sells for far more USED than mint out of interest! £2 was 480 pence. The set 6 cost 1398 pence at the PO. A standard letter cost 5 pence (5d) then, until decimal currency in 1966, when it became 4c. So this cost 279.6 first class stamps. Taking today’s $1.50 first class letter rate as our guide, this was $A420 in today’s money, so you needed a BIG wage to warrant that high cost – SIXTY years back. The WHITE and CREAM paper 10/- and £1 are seldom offered together. You are paying well under HALF the initial PO cost price essentially!

1917 £1 Brown and Blue Kangaroo stamp, clean cds used: In my 40 years as a dealer I’d say this is the ONE stamp missing from 99.999% of simplified Australian collections I see. It only came in 2 watermarks, and both are WAY into 4 figures, even used. The next hardest to get face different stamp - the £2 Black and Red Kangaroo, costs under one quarter of this in used. With the £2 Roo, collectors can also “cheat”, and buy a mint CofA “Specimen” for $100 if they wish - but the lowest price £1 Bi-Colour “Specimen” is $900. Worse still, MOST of these used £1 Bi-Colours look really terrible, with horrid “fluffy” perfs being 100% normal, and often with very washed out colours, mega heavy rubber parcel cancels, and back faults and creases/tears/thins or worse etc, from the very heavy parcel use, generally overseas.
The Third Watermark Kangaroos were issued and printed during WWI, when getting reliable ink supplies from the traditional ink suppliers - GERMANY was of course a BIG issue, for some odd reason! So the printers used whatever was on hand that remotely looked like “Blue” or “Brown” ink etc, hence the vast range of shades recorded in this value in ACSC. MOST of them were in pale shades of each, and look pretty washed out - even when mint. Most of them also have “fluffy” or “woolly” perfs, as perforating heads were not replaced on schedule - again, as those replacement parts also came from GERMANY! This one hass superb perfs. Arthur Gray told me THIS bi-colour stamp value was his absolute favourite of the entire Kangaroo series, and I’d have to agree. He insisted this stamp be the solo front cover item on the $7¼ million 'Kangaroos' Auction sale catalogue. This one is flat and fresh, with NO ugly usual foxing, grubbiness, or thins, or creases, or scuffs, or old hinge remains to hide defects etc.
I have owned literally 100s of these over 45 years, and near all are rough looking grade. MOST are truly woeful lookers. I saw one with a missing corner get 4 figures on eBay recently! Mad Bunnies.

SG cat £1,609 = $A3,000 - all neatly pencilled on reverse for your early checking. Even soaked off as VFU they are worth WAY more than $A450! A set of 4 are usually $5 a set VFU! And some of the mini sheets like the 2000 Millennium are super scarce, and sell for $30 or so, mint or used. One man's collection - from the Estate, at a crazy low price - they will sell FAST! Nice looking condition overall, and a wonderful and strong nucleus to build upon. Only a few of them photod here - www.tinyurl.com/30YrsFDC - UNDER TWO BUCKS APIECE! - $A450 - Stock 195PS


Adelaide 2016 $1.00 set 6 Mint, CTO in week of issue, "Albino", or on “Last Day Cover” $A199: The early 2016 Emergency issue of the ADELAIDE CPS set caused a global sensation, and the set of 6 x 30¢ is listed and priced in Gibbons at £250 PER stamp, and indeed is priced at $A4,500 a set 6 in Renniks. (My price is just $A1,995 a set of 6 - 2 sets left.) The $1.00 value in exact same design issued around the same time and on same machine is - so far, is oddly largely overlooked. Only a tiny number were sold mint, and I’ve yet to see a single postally used copy of those, despite that being the new postal letter rate. For many collectors the ONLY cost acceptable way to fill up these 6 spaces on the Hingeless Seven Seas Stamps, or other printed pages globally, will be with a set of 6 x $1.00, so demand will keep increasing. And prices too. Ton more discussion of this exciting new issue here - www.tinyurl.com/2016set
I managed to have serviced just SIX Last Covers as shown here. I have ONE left now. On Official PO cover, with the pictorial Adelaide Philatelic Sales Centre “Clocktower” pictorial cancel. Superb item, and a star of the future, at just $A199. I doubt more than 20 exist globally of these. No mail orders were accepted, no credit cards accepted, hence very few secured them in person. The CPS machine went back to MEL on that same day for scrapping. So a double piece of Philatelic History. Set of 6 x $1 MUH or VFU your choice - $A75 (Stock 571GX) or MUH and VFU sets 6 for $A125 (Stock 571GK) or 10 sets MUH and/or FU - $A500 (Stock 571GU) or my VERY last of the tiny number made of LAST DAY COVERS illustrated above: $A199 - (Stock 571GZL )



Wide Range Australia & States designs, 24K Gold on solid bullion, Replica Stamps: $A30 each!: A perfect opportunity for you to own stamps from a Deluxe collection of Australian stamps, in gleaming precious metal proof, struck in solid silver, and plated with 24 Carat Gold known as "The Australian Collection" - for the 1988 Bi-Centenary of Australia. Each in original classy packaging, and unopened. Some of the linked photos are taken from the advertising brochure - the copy from my Archive files - that Australia Post mailed to all those on the ‘Stamp Bulletin’ mailing list back then. The Australia Post Philatelic Manager fully endorsed and approved this set by mail, and waxed lyrical in a letter to collectors on what a lovely item it all was and great investment etc. See his actual letter on link below from my files. Each ingot is identical in exterior size to the huge original stamp, but MUCH thicker of course.
Highly polished Deluxe Proof quality, hand struck in solid sterling silver, mirror finished plated with 24 Carat Gold, and each is a substantial 2.2 mm thick as you can see in photo. Quite a bit of “melt” value in the large chunk of thick Sterling Silver here alone. Rear of all ingots are stamped with "The Australian Collection" and ".925 Silver HF" to authenticate them. In 1988 - over 32 years back - these replicas cost subscribers exactly $A98.60 an ingot. True! See original receipt scanned on link nearby. These are brand new in the original secure and protective packaging. Each ingot is in a special clear moulded mount, inset into a large Racing Green solid card outer folder about the size of a FDC or PO pack. The ingots are thus still in as minted, highly polished mirror proof state, unscuffed or damaged. VERY few would have been retained thus after 30 years, as near all were inset into the fancy display box that came with the set. A bit like better Dinky Toys, or Barbie Dolls etc, in clean ORIGINAL un-opened packaging - worth MANY times the items if outside the packaging.
Easy to store in a #2 or #3 Hagner, or stockbook pages etc, or even stored flat in a large glassine etc. I bought a hoard off someone who paid $A98.60 each - receipt in link below. A first class letter costs 4 times more than it did in 1988, so this had a relativity value of $400 an ingot in today’s money. You are paying under 10% of that!! I have duplicates of near all the Bullion ingots in the collection, if you want more than one of all of these for the same stamp design, if they suit your collecting themes. Or for ebayer-selling etc. He has duplicates of many - this guy spent $10,000s on these! MASSES of pix and paperwork here - www.tinyurl.com/BullionStamp - Each stamp design has a unique order code - click link for all details of those. ONE packaged ingot of your choice for $A45 (Stock 526AL ) FIVE of YOUR choice stamp ingots for $A200 (Stock 526AK ) TEN for $A350 (Stock 527AB ) TWENTY ingots of YOUR choice for $A600 or $US400 (Stock 527AC ) or have ONE set only of 23 DIFFERENT Bullion ingot stamps for just $US470 - $A700 - Stock 526AAC

Jamaica 1940s KGVI ‘SPECIMEN’ perfin sets: The very last remnants from a Pacific Island archive of UPU Specimen Freebies that I bought. Only a few 100 sets sent out by UPU, and near all still reside in official PO archives. The stamps were affixed upon arrival on expensive heavy grade Stanley Gibbons ‘Philatelic’ brand pages. The ONLY way to guarantee genuine perfs, as forgers are in action on FakeBay. 105% Guaranteed in writing by me as 105% GENUINE perfins - NEVER been on the market for 75 years - the buyer will be the FIRST collector to own this since 1948, right after WW2. SG Cat £290=$A575. A steal at $A200 – Stock 181RT


*40* x Australia 1984 SPECIMEN Paintings sets MUH - Face $680 for just $A300! FORTY of the special deluxe Post Office packs from 1984, each containing $17 face value of fresh MUH paintings each - all in lavish Gold Embossed packs. The owner notes showed he had bought these as an ‘Investment’ in 1990 for around $1,000 the bundle of 40, off Max Stern. He had high hopes these would also get to the same $600 a set price of the 1963/65 “Specimen” sets of 4, of 30 years earlier! Condition looks nice and clean. I see quite a few of these stamps arriving used on parcels - not ‘supposed’ to occur, but it seems few notice these days at AP. I saw a mint single pack get $30 on ebay recently! Possibly a 'Paintings On Stamps' collector looking for something a little different? Bought well in Estate, so OUT they go at under $A8 each! $US200 or - $A300 - Stock 842KA


Australia 1970 Definitives, rare Post Office Pack Cat $650, for just $A275 or $US180: The *Gorilla* - the scarcest Australia face different PO pack by several miles, as it cost a FORTUNE back then. I see one each few years or so. This larger sized B5 pack has all the current Defins right up to the 1966 Navigator set 6, in a plastic Hagner type sheet inside. Add it up - FACE was $10.47 of the stamps here. ‘No big deal’ you might think today. Well over Half A Century back, that was huge. A First Class letter then cost 5¢! (There are 2 different 5¢ Queens in here) so $10.47 bought you 210 x first class stamps. Today a First Class letter is $1.50, so 210 of those is $A315 in today’s money. Would YOU pay $A315 TODAY for a new issue Post Office pack? Of course not, and certainly almost no-one did in 1970, so they are super scarce, and retail MANY $100s despite being on sale nationally at capital city Philatelic Bureaux. The $4 King alone cost EIGHTY times the then 5¢ letter rate. So the pack was about $A315 type buying price, adjusted to today’s money. You are paying miles LESS than that! Little wonder almost none sold. ASC P7, Cat. $650, and seldom seen or offered ANYWHERE. Fresh and un-opened. $US185 - $A275 -Stock 542JKL

HONG KONG MUH 2006-2010 - SG cat £201=$A400 for $A175 - Current SG cat noted on each set for your easy checking on small neat stickers. The ''as new'' #7 Hagners alone retail $16. Bought a large collection off a banker, who moved around globally, and bought stamps and FDC from POs from wherever he was posted. Often very obscure places. He was in HONG KONG in 2006-2010, and bought these MUH full sets and many mini sheets. GLOBALLY, all mint sets are scarce post 2005. "LIQUID GOLD" - can you see anyone else offering these in 1 hit - of course not. All fresh MUH. Gorgeous clean lot. And WILL get pricier over time of course. Only a very few of the Hagner sheets shown here, as late night now. Bought cheap to sell cheap for $A175. HEAPS of pix here - www.tinyurl.com/HK-MUH - Adding these up on eBay would be a big hit as almost no-one else globally will have these past 2005 – trust me! Clearly, almost NO-ONE bought these mint as new issues, that much is pretty clear - lots of $20 sets among these of course. $A175 or $US115- Stock 574ZQ

Australia 1916 WWI double rate, four stamp, Roo/KGV complete cover to France - Australia 1916 uncensored, small double rate, re-addressed cover to Rouen, Normandy. Sent from “Cooinoo”, in Kissing Point Road Turramurra, NSW, which was built for William James Adams, heir to the Tattersalls fortune. The house was featured as a private residence in “Our beautiful Homes'', N.S.W. 1910. In World War I the city of Rouen was just behind the German occupied lines, and became a major logistics centre with numerous base hospitals. British Commonwealth camps and hospitals were stationed on the southern outskirts.
A base supply depot and the 3rd Echelon of General Headquarters were also established in the city. No 1 Australian General Hospital was located there from 1916 to early 1919. Franked with 2 x 2d Grey Kangaroos, plus 2 x ½d Emerald single watermark KGV Heads. All cancelled by Turramurra cds’s of ‘10 JL 16’ with French backstamps. Double rate covers to France are rare, 4 stamp covers even scarcer, as a 5d KGV or 5d Roo were of course the obvious franking choice, at any PO for a 5d letter rate, and this is a scarce survivor. The 2d appear from the perfs to be Slate Grey SECOND watermark, Cat $450+++. VERY strange not to be censored in the midst of WWI to the busiest war action in Northern France, making it more desirable. $A235 - Stock 582KJ

PNG Mint coll from SG#1 in green Seven Seas Album - $A275 - SG Cat $550 plus $200 for the album = $750. Estate steal at just $A275 - only a few pages shown here.

Fresh MUH those I spot checked - a few cheapies were MLH. Many more pics here - www.tinyurl.com/GreenPNG - $A275 - Stock 989TK


For well over 45 years, I have held the largest stock of used Australia KGV heads and Kangaroos in the world. From poor to superb. Many collectors find it really tough to sort and source these by watermark, and shades, and Dies accurately. In the early 1980's I ran dozens of full page ads in the 2 local magazines listing EVERY key Australian stamp in 5 different grades from "Spacefiller" to "Superb". Even the 1913 Mega Scarce £2 Roos. Not one dealer has done that kind of ad - before or since.
My grading is precise, my stock is enormous, and I have assisted many THOUSANDS of collectors complete their sets of these difficult issues. From budget conscious pensioners filling Seven Seas albums for their grandchildren, where space-fillers of scarcer values will suffice absolutely perfectly, to multi-millionaires who want and buy the BEST - from cars and houses .... to their stamps! You may not be able to afford to LIVE as well as Hugh Morgan or Ron Brierley does, or drive a Bentley like they do, but your used Roos can look JUST as nice!
If you want a complete set of "Melbourne Dec 3, 1913" half circle gloss black cancels on First Watermark - I can supply them. If you want the full gum corner CTO from later Specimen packs I can help. (All these are now listed in the ACSC as CTO, and priced accordingly, per type.) If you want just lovely postally Superb Used like those in the photo nearby - I have always been the #1 choice to buy from. I have 1000's just like them - Read my recent stamp column HERE - www.tinyurl.com/RooGrade - about WHY you should collect only USED stamps in this country.
Unlike mint, used stamps do not tone or rust nearly as fast - and are readily ‘cleaned’ if they do! And unlike mint - no-one goes about regumming used Kangaroos. And when it comes to filling gaps in high value Roos, opting for USED, even lovely copies, will cost you a TINY FRACTION of what mint hinged will. So it is VERY possible to fully complete your used Roo collection. Mint hinged will cost you $40,000. USED are a tiny fraction of that, as you can see below.
I purchased Private Treaty from Harmers Of Sydney in 1979, the massive H .F. McNess accumulation of used "OS" perfins. He was obsessed with accumulating these issues, and had books full. I still have much of this stock. This was at a time when perf "OS" were poorly regarded by collectors and dealers alike. Not me. I still have multiple copies of items that most dealers have never seen or handled genuine examples of, like - 4d Lemon Yellow, ½d and 1/4d Small Multi perf 14, KGV No Wmk pair, Roo 2½d and 4d Yellow 1st Wmks etc.
I was the person who got the £2 Small Multiple perf “OS” Roo listed into the ACSC after 75 years, by proving beyond doubt 2 totally genuine copies did exist. One of which I bought from a WW2 assembled collection. (The used Arthur Gray copy, who owned the other, then sold for $A40,000.) These “OS” perfins (especially First Wmk) are usually HORRIBLE looking stamps.
The stamp printer directed that badly centered sheets of stamps, too poorly produced for sale to the public, be put aside, and be perforated “OS” for these “nuisance” Free Government Official stamps. That makes CHOICE copies about one in a 100 of the higher 1913 values above 3d. And do note - all perf “OS” sold by ME are genuine, from the massive H.F. McNess hoard I bought etc. Do not TOUCH 90% of what you see on eBay. Read of the ENDLESS FakeBay fakes exposes on this board.
Australian dealers in general are pretty lazy and slap-dash and vague with used stamp terminology. The Term “FU” is applied to ANYTHING, with any cancel, most times! Loosely translated it means “NOT MINT.” Convenient for them - yes. Accurate - NO! Entire price lists headed “Fine Used” exist. However they often mean if you order “FU” and the dealer has a single copy in stock that is truly graded AVERAGE used, you’ll be cheerily supplied with that unless you complain - end of story. As for private sellers on ScamBay ... “rust and toning and foxing - what's that”?? Is a 3 mm tear, pinhole, or bad corner crease worth mentioning - of COURSE not! "Is that a paper thin, or the watermark - let’s say watermark" as it will sell for more. "What is re-perfing?" - they do not know (or care), and you do not know. The Blind leading the Blind in many cases.
I have FIVE specific USED grades in my stock - from Spacefiller Grade, to Superb Used Grade. You pay for, and GET exactly WHAT grade suits your collection best. Warning - the very TOP grade “SUPERB USED” sets are incredibly tough to source, as you might imagine, and are priced accordingly, and can take quite a time to assemble and ship. Always ask FIRST. The other 4 grades below are good to go right now, when you order. For MOST buyers, “Clean Good Used” is actually perfect. Better than MOST other dealer’s “VFU” grading!
"Instant Kangaroo Collection”: I’ve assembled full sets of 34 different Roos in EVERY Watermark. 1st and 2nd Wmks to 1/-, 3rd Wmk to BOTH 2/- colours, Small Multi Wmk to 2/-, CofA Wmk to 5/-, and even both the 6d “OS” overprints - which are actually VERY scarce used, but are needed for EVERY printed album. Melbourne retail for these same 34 stamps in normal used condition is well over $A1,000. ACSC cat is way higher. Buy just the EXACT grade that suits your budget, and collecting requirements as follows: (Order as stock number 245RU and specify GRADE.)
Spacefillers - $A225 - Average Used - $A425 - Nice Good Used - $A595 ($US399) - Clean FU - $A925 - Or for the perfectionist - hand selected Superb Used complete set of 34: $1,650. And I also have great stocks of the higher face values than these - and the best stock in Australia of Perforated “OS” Roos - all GUARANTEED GENUINE unlike the ebay Forgery Factory. Also I have great stock of the Stanley Gibbons listed watermark errors, perfs, shades, Dies, and SG listed printing varieties etc. Please enquire. - (Order as stock number 245RV and be sure to specify your wanted GRADE.)
Roo "Upgrade" Kit: Add these real key values to the Roo set above. Add the 1913 2/- First Watermark, the 2/- Second Watermark, and both the scarce 5/- Third Watermark, and Small Multiple Watermarks. And last but not least, add the 10/- CofA to your page. These five scarce stamps are missing from near all collections. The 10/- Roo is going up in price strongly each year. ACSC Cat for “normal” average used grade for just these 5, in very cheapest shades, is $1,350! So the attractive Good Used set at $US490 at $695 is near HALF CAT.
My price for these 5 ''Upgrade'' stamps: Spacefillers - $A345 Average Used - $A525 - Nice Good Used - $A695 - Clean FU - $A975 - Or for the perfectionist - a hand selected SUPERB Used complete set of 5: $A1,625 - (Order as stock number 245RW - and specify your wanted GRADE.)

HUGE 500g bags of Lighthouse black stamp mounts. Range of sizes in each: I sell 100s bags a year of these. Everyone needs a selection of mounts in a range of sizes in the stamp den - for various reasons. The only way to get them usually, is to buy a pack of 10 mounts for $20, and never use the others in most cases. And you need to buy a stack of $20 packs, to have a basic range of sizes. A few little packs of those costs MORE than this huge bag. "Lighthouse" in Germany offers special bulk 500g (over 1 lb weight) packs of them to dealers, at a FRACTION of the price of buying them in separate packs. Cheap at the usual retail of $A115. But WAY under that from me. 30% less. The perfect item to have in ANY stamp den. A huge range of height sizes, from short to massive ..... so pretty much every possible stamp sheet, pair, strip, mini sheet, sheetlet or block can be mounted, safely and quickly.
HEAPS more pix and prices here - www.tinyurl.com/BagMounts - All are fully gummed on back as always, so simply lick them - and you are away. Top of the range German LIGHTHOUSE quality. A STACK of mounts for each size .. hard to show in photo. Normal mounts in strips and blocks .. open 3 sides for most of them and the larger ones sealed top and base. Those large ones can thus be used for sheetlets or large pieces OR guillotined down to what you need in open sided mounts. All housed in a large, very thick A4/Quarto size heavy bag - fully zip resealable, to keep moisture and dust OUT. These will last you 20 years - For more details see link above.


QANTAS $2 Airbus A380 stamp, totally **IMPERFORATE** Block of 4 - just $A75 or $US46!: Australia Post a few years back, released just 750 x IMPERFORATE uncut press sheets of these $2 stamps. A FIRST from anywhere. Striking and varnished etc. You needed to phone a special '800' number after midday, and maximum order was one sheet a person, and they sold out within hours, as you'd expect. All the $2 stamps depict the massive Qantas Airbus A380. Qantas staffers and aviation collectors keenly seek this sheet, as do the 1000s of pure “A380” theme collectors. Each press sheet was foil numbered in lower right margin, and also comes with a hand numbered PO 'Certificate Of Guarantee' that only 750 sheets in TOTAL were ever sold, including all left and right panes.
Indeed there were only 375 left pane, and 375 x right pane ... both sheets of 12 are marked and numbered thus lower left. This is a Qantas Airbus A380 issue and that is a red hot theme, even for non stamp collectors. Pilots and aviation fans buy them as this was a FIRST. And it is fully imperforate. It is an 100% OFFICIAL PO issue, and one of the very smallest issues in the post war era. It was VERY limited, and has remained RED hot - just like the stamp border colour! I obtained a few by paying folks $100 cash profit to sit on the phone for hours re-dialling until they got through. THERE WAS *NO* OTHER SOURCE FOR THESE! Price per IMPERF mini sheet is from $A75 - full details here - with a LOT more photos of all the options and choices on these, even full uncut press sheets of 12 are available for just $A500 - www.tinyurl.com/QantasStamp - $A75 Stock 482YL

1915 SECOND Watermark 2/- Pale Brown Kangaroo stamp Fine Used. SG29, Cat $350 - just $A150 to clear, as I took it from a stockbook page I bought this afternoon! A most under-rated stamp. A stamp missing from near EVERY Roo Collection. The small emergency single printing done in midst of WWI, on the KGV watermark paper, as the Germans were sinking shipping from UK to here. A very FU example sold recently at Public Auction here for near $600. (Est. $160.) I sold it to that seller for about $50 only 10 years back. 95% of those offered on eBay etc are NOT Second Watermark, sadly. Amateur sellers can rarely pick the first 3 x 2/- Browns apart accurately. This stamp was my ‘Stamp News’ Tip Of The Month - www.tinyurl.com/Glen6-19 - I can pick apart all Kangaroo stamps at a glance from the front, but most cannot.
Second Watermarks are always a paler brown like this – Thirds never are, and these always have clean cut perfs .. the cheap THIRD watermark never do. Clueless or conniving Ebay Bunny sellers know neither fact of course and most "2nd Wmk" offered on ebay are of course NOT. Much of the time the buyers are near as clueless as the sellers, so a perfect storm - with the blind leading the blind. Buying from me, you get GUARANTEED Second Watermark on these 107 year old stamps. Clean and fresh and neatly cancelled – totally free of the usual hinges and gook and gunk and ageing. Clean and flat. SG 29, £120 = $A240. ACSC 36a, $A350. Juzwin retail $250 for an inferior Good Used grade.

New Zealand Post Clean coll of official PO FDC ‘Liquid Gold’ post 2000 era: My camera is playing up and no pix, but of this lot, not really needed! These Kiwi FDCs are in tip-top condition, running from 2000 right through 2011. They look beautiful - I've never seen most of them before! Plenty of Exhibition mini sheets, even some ‘Lord of the Rings’, plus of course, plenty of Rugby (you know the Kiwis and their 'All Blacks'!) There are about 125 covers, with a total 2022 ACS catalogue value of over $1,550. Face value of the stamps alone is over $700 and of course they cost MORE than face to buy from PO. There is even a handy complete inventory of it all.
FDC from the Australia and NZ regions, fall into several distinct bands - 1. - Latter 1970s to late 1980s are incredibly abundant, as we had a massive "Stamp Boom" then, where investors jumped onto the scene, often buying 5 or 10 of each FDC. 2 - 99% of these buyers ceased in 1990, as the POs issued a $20 Definitive stamp. Back near 30 years back $20 was SERIOUS money - $50 in today's spending power, and vast numbers of folks simply said "Forget it" and stopped buying FDC’s. OVERNIGHT! HENCE the FDC from 1990 onwards are 20 times harder to get than the 1980s era. FACT. Catalogue values for the 1990s FDC are high, and even as Fine Used these are worth MANY times face ….. some up to TEN times face, as you can see in catalogues. 3 - ANYTHING after 2000 FDC, is near impossible to source. Masses of collectors and dealers drew a line in the sand at this time, at that BIG round year figure, and said "that's it".
Dealers did not buy them, and most collectors did not either. So when they appear on ebay etc they get double or treble face readily. Of course years on, they all regret it, and nearly all want and need those issues. Dealers did not stock them either, so sourcing them is near impossible - at any price. All clean PO unaddressed. Even as FINE USED these are worth easily DOUBLE my asking price! Under $US335 at $A500 - Stock 395KC

1913 Kangaroo First Watermark 2/- Brown Large “OS”, VFU - Cat $500 for $A300!: A surprisingly scarce stamp in ANY shape. The values above 1/- were seldom sent to Federal Offices, as usage was negligible in this 1d post era. Usually 2 x 1/-, or 4 x 6d or more likely 6 x 4d were used, which were all held in large numbers, and as the 4d was Registered rate, it is still quite common used. This LARGE 'OS' size puncture was quickly dropped within a few months, as the huge perfin meant the stamps tore apart when being separated on this coarse tough long paper fibre paper, where even tearing apart NON OS pairs is impossible, without ripping out a perf or three. Lovely light Vic - ‘Spencer Street - 9 JE : 14 - MELBOURNE’ cancel - also unusual on these that generally got the huge thick parcel KILLERS! Clean and fresh, and totally free of the gunk and gook, and aging, and old hinges that often hide faults.
Even FAIR centering is truly scarce on any large ‘OS’, as the Government printer deliberately put aside BAD centred sheets for puncturing for the “Free Government use” and most are SHOCKERS, as you would know if you have looked about. Deep rich colour, and also this has exceptional perfs for any 1913 Roo - near all First Wmks of any value have pulled perfs on one or both sides as you know. Unusually nice appearance for these stamps, that near always have really “wonky” and ripped out perfs.

Australia 1932 5/- Sydney Harbour Bridge stamp, Superb VFU: The most iconic stamp from this country, and missing from 95% of collections. It was printed on what was essentially very coarse hand-towel type blotting paper, and perforated with blunt nails. This was the absolute height of the Great Depression, and even the Government Printer was economising. The coarse paper means a large number are thinned - try and carefully peel an old hinge off these, and you WILL thin them! And the perfs, as all will know are often terrible and ripped out, and “fluffy” and poorly punched. They were perforated with the single line machine rather like a fancy treadle sewing machine one line at a time, then sheet rotated 90 degrees, and the other sides done. Hence wide margin centering is not common at all. A beauty - clean and perfect with superb perfs and centering for these “terrors”. Yes these do sell a little lower at times BUT that is due to the inferior centering and reverses etc. Buy top quality for about $US175 at $A265 Stock 912AX

Like Arthur Gray, he bought in that same era - while all the other geniuses of the time were buying 1971 Xmas blocks 25, and MUH Nauru Decimal Collections etc! THOSE were the days to buy Bi-Colour Kangaroos. These go up in value each year.

Australia 1963 Navigators set 6 attractive *MUH* $A180 (*Or* Fine Used $A140!) : If there is just ONE stamp absent from any QE2 collection of Australia it is the £2 Admiral King stamp. Every time. THE priciest Australian stamp post-war. Super high value issued late 1964, and replaced a year or later by the new Decimal $4 of same design, so a VERY short life. £2 Admiral King stamp and the ship “Mermaid” is the KEY post war stamp from Australia and sells for far more USED than mint out of interest! £2 was 480 pence. The set 6 cost 1038 pence at the PO. A standard letter cost 5 pence (5d) then, until decimal currency in 1966, when it became 4c. So this cost 207.6 first class stamps. Taking today’s $1.50 first class letter rate as our guide, this was $A311 in today’s money, so you needed a BIG wage to warrant that high cost - way over a half Century back. You are paying about HALF the initial PO cost price essentially! (Clean *FU* cds set of 6 is just $A140 - Stock 742JB ) Quite nice centering for these, especially key values, clean and flat, with guaranteed original gum MUH.

Rare ‘Emergency Overprints’:

Papua New Guinea 1994 "Emergency Overprints" stamp sets 11 or 20: I have always had the largest stock of these overprints in the world. Buy DIRECT from the original dealer "source"! Thousands of collectors NEED this set to complete their collections, as all album pages on the planet have spaces for them. Only 45,000 sets were ever printed, NONE were ever sold by the global agents, or the Papua New Guinea Bureau, or even Australia Post. Nearly all were used up on genuine commercial mail. Not discovered by the stamp world until months after all the key values were all used up on mail! I first reported their existence to the stamp world in 1995. "Set of 11" - SG # 730/740. Michel # 714 -724. Scott # 860/871. ASC Cat $A420, for the basic set 11 alone.
Definitive sets like the 1967 Anguilla overprints set 16 are already cat at £25,000 mint in Stanley Gibbons - and Anguilla has NOTHING like even 1% of the global collector following of PNG - think about it! This PNG set has a LONG way to go yet - that seems very clear. For very detailed and comprehensive background on this issue, with all numbers printed etc - see my special page on these issues: www.tinyurl.com/1994PNG - WEB SPECIAL - set of 11 (ASC Cat $420!) for just $A200 ~$US125 (Stock 928XG) or Fine Used set 11 for $A140 (Stock 928XH) Complete Set 20 as illustrated for $A300 or ~$US185 (Stock 928XL) or the Set of 20 Fine Used for about $US125 at just $A185 (Stock 928XP)
Finally - all the 1994 "Emergency" sets I sell are of course guaranteed 105% genuine. You may ask for my Photo Certificate Of Genuineness on my security watermarked colour letterhead for this set of 11 or 20, mint or used, dated and signed, illustrating in full colour the exact set I mail you. If required, this CERTIFICATE costs you an extra $A70 (Stock 928ZW) on top of price of the stamps, largely to cover the considerable time and messing around of individually preparing each one, typing, and scanning to size etc.
This is substantially cheaper than sending it to the R.P.S. in London etc, which takes half a year to get back, and also incurs substantial Registered airmail costs to you - in both directions. And quite frankly, the RPSL would not have a clue about these issues. 'Too Modern, Old Chap' they would sniff! Years down the track when the set sells for a multiple of what it does now, such a certificate Guaranteeing these came from original PNG sources in 1994/5 will add FAR more than $A70 to the extra price you obtain when selling.

Editions complete – Book #1, to 2000 - 22% off - *$A425 UNDER retail*!
ONE set only at this price - these Leather (Executive) books are VERY classy. All have been black genuine Leather covered, with brass corners, since the first issue in 1986, so they are a fully matched classy Black leather set, in matching black slipcases. Covers are thickly padded and deeply gold inscribed on front and spine. Each book has a matching gold embossed heavy slipcase ….. see the main photo above - the 3 slipcases are standing at back. These keep dust and moisture OUT of your stamp albums and are ESSENTIAL in this climate.
Australia Post charges $35 more for each Leather album over the regular Year Books, due to the far higher cost of making leather covers etc in short runs. So retail of each is accordingly much higher - add that extra cost up over 15 books! Numbers produced are a small FRACTION of normal books, so re-sale value stays very strong. Sitting in a neat row on a loungeroom bookshelf these look super classy - like a set of Law Books or Encyclopedia Britannia etc! They come out each year in exact same design, so you can readily keep up to date.
The presentation of the stamps and the artwork and detail on the pages in these books is an absolute credit to Australia Post. High gloss varnished paper, and double facing pages of info on EVERY stamp issue. Laden with photos and factual background information. For collectors with younger children or Grandchildren, this is a goldmine for their education and general knowledge. Or a family heirloom collection to keep up to date. The 2000 regular Year Book surprised everyone by having in it, the Australia Sydney Olympic Gold Medal winner sheetlet of 16. You could obtain this sheet NO other way. That sheetlet alone retails for $100 from many dealers. The 1988 LEATHER book has always been near impossible to source etc. Full retail list of ALL these superb books here - www.glenstephens.com/yearbook.html
I have ALWAYS have the largest stock of Year Books in Australia - true. No other dealer comes ever close. I buy more estates than anyone else it seems, and also folks come to me when selling these books, as they know I will buy them cash. And I thus MUST on-sell them as cheaply as I can, to MOVE all this stock, or I will drown in it! Bought this nice clean collection CHEAP in an Estate, so OUT they go. This is a lovely clean collection of EVERY Black Leather Year Book issued from 1986 (Leather Book Number #1) right up to the scarce 2000. FIFTEEN matched leather books. A large wine carton FULL.
My normal discount retail on these 15 books, as you can see from link above, is $A2,175. (All the later year Leather Books are in stock of course. I can do a similar bulk discount deal for 2001-2020 etc, or for any other single years you are missing - ask me for my rock bottom price!) A superb gift idea perhaps for someone? As always on pricier lots, happy to do a time payment or LayBy system etc - 4 monthly payments of around $425 and these are yours! To clear this Estate lot fast, out they go for $425 UNDER my retail - a super bargain figure for this ONE discounted set of 15 - 22% off retail at just - Abut $US1,125 at $A1,695 Stock 451WX

New Zealand 2006 Kapa Haka Maori Dancers Rare “Unissued” set of 5: Sold, advertised, mailed and charged to some standing order clients by NZ Post. But hastily withdrawn in panic at Eleventh Hour, as some Maori activists did not like the design images! 39 mint sets of 5 were mailed out, and a few FDC, booklets, and one coil roll, and they are the rarest post-war issues for 100 years from NZ. (See detailed note on these in SG “New Zealand” cat after SG #2285.) An affordable way to buy these is via the un-issued 45c "Poi" Maori dancer self-adhesive booklet stamps or the 45c coil version. FAST ordering is recommended as when my small stock is gone, they can't be replaced.
Current market leading NZ Len Jury mass selling catalogue is $17,500 a set of 5, FDC at $25,000, and coil or booklet 45c singles $2,500 each. MY price is $A1,500 a single (Stock 583AB ) 45c self-adhesive booklet stamp neatly cut from the block, or $A2,750 (Stock 583AC ) a horizontal pair. (45c Coil stamps the same prices - Coil strip of FOUR for $A5,000 - Stock 583AH) Or $A5,000 a booklet block of 4 (Stock 583AD ) - if a block is still intact of course when you order! (A block of 4 is a booklet “pane” - each booklet has 2 panes of 4, and a pair.) Or the complete booklet of 10 for $US6200 or $A10,000. (One only booklet on hand - Stock 583AE )
These figures are miles lower than NZ retail which is high as tiny supply rapidly shrinks, and news of their existence slowly spreads overseas. "Linn's Stamp News" carried my story on these front page in colour. And best of all, the NZ dollar has strengthened a lot against $A in recent months. Noticed a phenomenal $21,185 invoice price for a set 5 at ACS Auction in May 2022, on an estimate of just $12,500. Intensely keen bidding for it. Forget Auction prices - I have a full set of 5 for sale MUH at $US5,440 or $A8,500 a set 5 (Stock 583EF ) or $A30,000 for matched MUH blocks 4. - Stock 583EG
If you buy them off me you avoid a certain 10% GST impost upon arrival from NZ as a highly insured item, versus ordering locally, and avoid the nasty new 3-4% "overseas use surcharge" + bad exchange rate your credit card bank will certainly levy. Likewise for NZ buyers, I mail in such a way Registered as to cause no 15% GST and Customs “interest” there on entry. My copies are IN-STOCK, and ready to mail now. NZ Buyers can pay into my NZ account if they choose, to save card and Forex fees.
Remember only 39 mint sets of 5 of these were EVER sold, and a few booklets and coil stamps, and NZ Post has confirmed that in writing, and confirmed these were a fully legit PO issue - see article below. Each stamp in each set is FAR scarcer than the 1906 1d "Claret" Christchurch, which have fetched up to $NZ22,500 each at public auction. See recent strong sales and that stamp’s history here These Kapa Haka are Classics of the future. For FAR more details of them all here - tinyurl.com/Kapa-NZ - A full set of 5 from me costs only $US5,700 - $A8,500 (Stock 583EF ) - or just $A1,700 apiece!

ACSC "Postal Stationery" Catalogue - 484 pages, all in colour: Including Australian Territories, Latest Edition which updates the first edition of nine years earlier, incorporating a number of corrections and new discoveries. In particular, the Postal Cards up to 1936 have been extensively revised, and there are many additions to the listing of Lettercards. The decimal Stationery produced by the Note Printing Branch is included for the first time. All prices have been fully updated. In full colour, 484 x large A4 heavily illustrated pages, perfect bound. If you only buy one catalogue each decade, whether you are a dealer or a collector, or Auction, you MUST have this. Detailed review here - www.tinyurl.com/GlenAP2018 - The most common innocuous looking thing on your desk might be valued at ten times the purchase price of this catalogue! I kid you not. Maybe 25 times.
There are HUNDREDS of items in here listed at between $5,000 and $15,000 EACH. EVERY item is illustrated in colour (reduced in size of course) - a GODSEND for many of the earlier Registration envelopes etc. (Only about 4 pieces in the entire book, they were unable to get copies of to scan!) Very coolly, all down the outer spine is colour coded to go to Wrappers - go right to the BLUE tagged edges. For postcards go to PURPLE tags etc. A breeze to use quickly, as I need to do each day.
I HATED using the initial huge ring binder edition as time went on, as the printer punched the holes way too small in my view. Making finding any given section an annoying juggling act, risking damaging and tearing all earlier pages each time. This one is a BREEZE to use. For instance ALL the “View” Lettercards are now all illustrated and priced SEPARATELY - some 170 different! Some of these are worth a fortune, and dealers and collectors without this book have not got a CLUE as to what is scarce, and what is not. You will easily pay for this book with the first vaguely scarce view you pick up on ebay etc.
There are all the Aerograms illustrated - many quite valuable, all the wide range of Military material, WW2 Food Parcel labels (one is cat $10,000, and another $7,500!), and even all the myriad of different views on the initial 1911 “Coronation" set. All priced separately. The highest price in here I saw was $15,000 for a KGV low face value reply card, that I bet a lot of overseas (even local!) sellers would price at $20 retail and cross their fingers! It is huge - near 500 large A4 pages, on quality grade paper, in full colour - all proudly printed and produced here in Sydney Australia.
Edited by Dr. Geoff Kellow, the usual super high standard of original research work and fine attention to detail has taken place here. Geoff told me much of his original research on numbers printed of the early issues has never been published before the ACSC did these. Not only Australia is covered, but the “Territories” and that includes all the “Formular” Aerograms and airletters etc for the Territories. And all the Papua early issues, and GRI material, and PNG and Cocos and Christmas Islands etc. This is all listed and priced. www.tinyurl.com/ACSC-PSTAT - Heaps more pix are here of contents etc are on that link - Under $US160 - $A240 Stock 782DV


In this low interest rate climate, and Euro zone jitters, good stamps often perform FAR better than money in the bank, the evidence shows clearly. The overheated Real Estate market in Australia is experiencing a correction as we speak, given our economy and COVID lately, and stamps are generally unaffected in such downturns, indeed usually go up.

Please order via new HTTPS encrypted SECURE site - www.tinyurl.com/GlensOrder And please do that NOW. Too many think “I’ll do that later” and then quickly “forget”. I then often lose the stamps in the rubble here, and waste an annoying hour finding them again.

Remember, adding another lot of mine (posted by either Admin, GlenStephens or Global Administrator or ozstamps) here (or on my website www.glenstephens.com/rarity.html ) for sale, in general adds ZERO to your shipping cost, so have a good look at what is on offer on the pages here, in case something else appeals.

NO "20%-25% Buyer Fees" and “3% credit card fees” to add to my *NETT* prices, as in auction! ZERO extra charged to use any cards - and Amex is accepted too or PayPal in ANY currency. .
Many similar mouth-watering NETT price offers are being loaded weekly onto - www.tinyurl.com/GlenRare and www.tinyurl.com/StampDeals Unless noted by me, all stampboards lots priced *$A100 and under* are generally mailed Unregistered and untracked at *YOUR* total risk, unless YOU specifically note otherwise on order form. 1,000s of my transactions here for 15 years have been delivered safely by normal post.

Orders over $100 are ALWAYS sent Registered (but Max PO cover is for $A100 only sadly) - cost is extra $A4 local. Request this on order form IF you require it, under $A100. Letter size FOREIGN sendings globally are usually only $4 untracked. Smallish, large packet items FOREIGN up to 500g/1lb are normally sent in pre-paid *EXPRESS* envelopes cost $17 total, near always dodging you inward VAT/GST Taxes/Fees!
"All Risk" Insurance is always possible if required as well, and is cheap at $A2 per $A100 covered locally, or $3 per $A100 overseas - and all buyers are strongly advised to use this, and I generally will add it automatically, unless asked not to. Full detail on all of this - www.tinyurl.com/Glen2-15 It is like Travel Insurance - decline that when booking your ticket, and THEN tell Qantas you really meant to take it out 3 weeks back, and ‘you now need to cancel your ticket, with no nasty penalty please’, and see how you get on with THAT one!


As per stampboard convention - this lot is offered exclusively first to board members - and on no other sales venue. For members who make a BANK TRANSFER or send cheque or Money Order etc, you WILL generally get your goods faster, as it saves me some hassle - but you MUST email me the confirmation number etc - many "forget"! Phone me anytime with any queries on these stamps – 0409- 399 - 888
