Black, plate 1a intense black shade horizontal strip of 4 letters P-I, P-J, P-K, P-L …lightly cancelled red maltese cross tied to original wrapper transit: DONCASTER FE 9 1841 to Bromley Common fine red receiving cancels wrapper flap will open to display on one album page illustratimg all transits. Google internet research immediately locates: George Warde Norman (1793 - 1882) Born 30 Sep 1793 in Bromley Common, Kent, England Died 1882 at about age 88 in Bromley, Kent, England. (Apparently a writer on finance) … we suspect there may be more to research. The wrapper must have included something more substantial to require a strip of x 4 1d. Blacks. Thw strip itself is interesting … almost complete 4 margin - 3 being good to large margins and absent filing crease. We suspect the strip has been lifted at some stage perhaps to test removal / reduction of red maltese cross cancels with P-I & P-L good to huge margins. Further research justified. What is the connection between Doncaster and George Warde Norman? Intense black strips of 4 (re-married to original wrapper) must be exceptionally rare. Bearing in mind that a 1d. Black block of 4 off cover catalogues £18,000 we would respectfully suggest that this strip on wrapper may command similar catalogue value. Research could not locate a similar standard entire/wrapper for sale. Consequently, whoever acquires this valuable wrapper may continue research as part of the story. Obviously UNIQUE.

103	8957	Great Britain - QV (line engraved)	8 Var PL118	1841 QV 1d. Red-brown Plate 118. Superb unused bottom left-hand corner marginal imperforate imprimatur lettered T-A, showing part inscription and plate number '118'. Gibbons retail card accompanies, priced at £6,000=. The significance of an imprimatur in stamp collecting is the very first sheet of stamps printed from a new, approved printing plate. Derived from the Latin word for 'let it be printed', these sheets serve as official physical records and colour proofs before a stamp is printed for public service. Typically imprimaturs realise between £500 to £1,000. Gibbons SG specialised 1st edition - November 2020 prices imprimaturs from £900 (pp155). By their nature all imprimaturs are unique, however the top-left, and in this instance the bottom left (S.W.) position letters T-A (Page 224 details stamps removed from the imprimatur sheet includes T-A PL118) bear the proving Plate number, and marginal inscription. Naturally, proving plate examples are unique and potentially x 10 to x 20 times rarer. Accordingly Gibbons, not unreasonably priced this rare piece (Ex. Clark collection 1946) at £6,000. What price today. Rare. Unique (Provenance Clark. SG. UPA) {MH} US0	3000 GBP

Neatly cancelled by Derry '172' numeral canceller. As Stanley Gibbons retail card accompanying states 'an exceptional example of this rare shade'. Without exageration this is the finest example of this stamp that we have ever handled in some 50 years trading. The thicker lavender tinted paper is rare and this is an exceptional premium example with pronounced tint, and that's not factoring in the part marginal inscription.

103	10334	Great Britain - Covers - KGV	432/433	1925 218 images: TWO VOLUME 1925 WEMBLEY Unique Philatelic & Social History Collection. I'm not going to say too much about this collection because, I think the 218 images should tell the story. Although I cannot recall seeing anything that specifically reveals the originator … to my mind this collection was painstakingly put together, card by card, by a British War Veteran, possibly disabled. The clues are there, and perhaps more to be deduced … The addresses vary, just how was the collection put together. Then there's the strong patriotic messages, copious articles/clippings/images on the reverse of the cards … Generally fine to very fine. As you know the 1925 is the much better/scarcer Wembley Series, and these are popular amongst the 'Exhibitions' collecting fraternity … I think I worked it out at something like £11.50 a card at the full GBP£3,750= starting price … but I may be wrong. Worth checking for even though £3,750= is a lot of money … this does not feel expensive … View ALL 218 images (2 Volumes) HEAVY/OVERSIZE LOT - OVERSEAS SHIPPING SURCHARGE APPLIES.

103	10469	Great Britain - Presentation Packs	595-598	1960 If you collect presentation packs chances are that you may have missed these seldom-offered official original British Post Office issued Presentation Packs. These literally come by so infrequently that we see no more than a few packs once in every few years. The 2nd of these forerunner presentation packs is the £1.18s. UK version (A US$ version also exists). Listed in SG Concise below the 2nd De La Rue set listing SG595-598 Gibbons lists 3 versions - this being the UK version in fine unopened condition. Naturally, unopened packs are worth more (except the stamps displayed can not be tidied(!). These forerunner packs undulate. Consequently the glassine display panel is difficult to photograph. Fine condition, unopened and very scarce. SG Concise 2026 prices this pack from £1,400.00. Currently these packs in fine unopened condition command retail values in excess of GBP£1,400=. A rare opportunity because in UPA's selling systems this pack will sell. (1 pack) Cat £1400 {UM} US0	1375 GBP
