Phoenix Auctions - Public Auction - May 9, 2013 It gives us great pleasure to present to you the second tranche of the impressive Stuart Hardy Commonwealth of Australia Collection. This Auction covers the Kangaroo and Map Issues and will be the largest sale of Australian stamps held in Australia.

Stuart was very fond of large blocks and these are a prominent feature of his collection, most well known is of course a block of 24 of the Small Mult wmk £2 Kangaroo, this was originally a pane of 60 bought by Ken Baker who onsold the bottom 36 to Stuart for £1,080.

Along with his large blocks are many monogram and imprint blocks with such gems as the unique 1d Roo wmk sideways No Monogram block of 6, the exceptionally rare Small Mult wmk £2 Imprint block of 4 (only 2 are known to be in private hands), and what is believed to be the only 1st wmk 2/- ‘JBC’ strip of 3. Used monograms and imprints are generally very rare and many feature in this collection with the used 3rd wmk 2/- perf ‘OS’ ‘JBC’ monogram block of 12 being a stand-out item. Watermark varieties abound. Stuart considered his unique mint 3rd wmk £1 chestnut & blue perf ‘OS’ sideways wmk to be the best item in his collection. There is also a rather nice 3rd wmk £1 chestnut & blue inverted wmk block of 4. Stuart only has a couple of proofs in his collection however the £2 plate proof in purple (2 exist in private hands) has pride of place in his Roos collection. There are many ‘Specimens’ throughout and the 10/-, £1 & £2 ‘JBC’ monogram singles with ‘Specimen’ handstamps are quite special.

Kangaroos were his major love and Stuart did a massive amount of work in plating the bi-colour Roos, as consequence there are large numbers of these in his collection.

Dynasty Auctions Company Ltd, a Division of Daniel Kelleher LLC - Public Auction 6 - May 18, 2013 Dynasty Auctions 2013 Spring Sale Public Auction will Feature The Jay Sirirattumrong Collections of WWII Thai Occupation of the Four Northern States in Malaya and the Comprehensive Postal History Collection of the “Death Railway” 1942-1945 in Siam/Thailand

Special Information Regarding The Jay Sirirattumrong Collections of the WWII Japanese Involvement in Siam/Thailand, 1942-1945

• I: “The Thai Occupation of the four Northern States of Malaya”
• II: A Comprehensive Postal History of “The Death Railway”

With reference to “The Thai Occupation of the four Northern States of Malaya” collection, it would be difficult to image a more challenging area of 20th Century postal history to collect, let alone assemble a holding of this comprehensive nature. Following Great Britain’s surrender of Malaya to the Japanese, in a unique and unparalleled move, the Japanese Army offered to share the Malayan occupation with Thailand. The Thai Government officials were responsible for the postal administration of the newly acquired provinces. Although it is generally agreed that approximately 33 post offices were in use during this period, several others have come to light and are included in this collection.

Business was very meager during the occupation period, with sharp declines in mail circulation. A small number of stamps along with a single 4c postal card were created for use. As an indication of the 4c cards rarity, until 1962 only 1 used card was believed to exist, and in 1968 this total had risen to approximately 10! Within this magnificent collection, no fewer than 37 used examples are present, including a great variety of unique usages from a variety of small town post offices.

The organization of this auction will be arranged by state, then by town and post offices, offering both covers and postal card usages, followed by select occupation issue adhesives, including multiples and combinations, selected to reflect the appropriate cancellations. Within this format will be found a splendid array of Japanese general issues used on cover as well as forerunner usages.

The highlights are both extensive and exhaustive. Look no further than the breathtaking Kota Bharu section to get an accurate feel. You will find offered the unique set of complete sheets of 84 of the Thai Occupation of Kelantan (S.G.TK 1-5; Scott 2N1-5), of which it is believed only about 700 sets were printed. Four magnificent covers of this issue will also be presented.

Following the Kota Bharu will be in-depth analysis by State and Post office, including a dazzling array of forerunner usages, occupation postal cards, issued occupation stamp covers, as well as a plethora of usages, including registered, registered entires, “AR” covers and stunning commercial usages, with the great majority of items never before appearing on the auction block. For the veteran exhibitor or would-be exhibitor, this collection provides an unparalleled opportunity for sourcing a remarkable rang e of elusive exotic material. Much of the material offered is extremely rare or unique, with the provenance of the items being beyond reproach. Taken collectively, this holding represents a Large Gold or even a Grand Prix winning quality exhibit.
