The United States portion of the auction contains hundreds of premium
quality mint and used U.S. stamps - the vast majority with certificates -
exactly the kind of material serious collectors have come to expect to see
in a Shreves auction.
Among the specialized U.S. offerings are the Thomas Droege Collection of
1893 Columbian Exposition postal history; the Gary Sumers collection of
Important Classic and Modern Errors; the Jack M. Vorhies Collection of
Revenue Stamped Paper Essays and Proofs - the most definitive collection of
its kind; and the "Kauku Kimo" Collection of Hawaiian Postage Stamps.
The Worldwide offerings in the auction are among the strongest we have had
the pleasure to offer in quite some time. The "Shanghai" Collection of
Early China Postage Stamps, 1878-1949, contains some of the rarest stamps
to appear at auction in the U.S. in years - all from a collection formed in
China many years ago. The Gary Sumers Collection of the Postage Stamps of
Japan contains an excellent array of seldom seen stamps in premium quality.
Additional exceptional foreign offerings include a "perfectionist's"
collection of gem quality mint Canadian stamps, plus there is an unusually
strong collection of New Britain stamps, including several rarities.
