1859 5c Beaver Old Time Advanced Collection, purchased in the early 1960s and left intact since then, containing a total of 143 stamps, arranged with categories such as Toronto square grids, a very nice page of various pen cancels, some paper types and two pages full of identified plate flaws of varieties, one has hand drawings of them beside the stamp and the other has a written description under each stamp. A great lot for the specialist, with mostly very good quality stamps. All pictured online. (Image)
1859 5c Beaver Old Time Extensive Collection, purchased at auction in the early 1960s for US$2,200 when it contained only 430 stamps (auction card and detailed description included), and the collection now contains 790 stamps. At the time it was purchased it contained some covers, which we have lotted separately, and the missing stamps appear to have been removed prior to that early 1960s sale. The collection, which appears to have belonged to Major G.A.E. Chapman of Ottawa (a well published and award winning student of this issue) is quite advanced, with many notes and remarks, and focuses on shades, papers, imprints, identified plate positions (many) and postmarks, many of which rarely seen. We note several paper types, including thick, thin, a stitch watermark, one identified as "laid" (which was sent to the RPSL in 1953 who identified it more as a "ribbed", and to the E.B. Eddy Paper Co, with accompanying letters), a pair which appears imperf between but shows only two unpunched perforation holes between, perforation varieties including some imperforate singles, a single with a few perforation holes through the stamp and none around, many pairs, at least 19 mint and unused copies including the lovely block of four pictured in our catalogue. Postmarks noted include several with rate markings (1, 3, 5, 10, PAID), fancy numerals (16, 37, 21 roller, Toronto fancy 2, etc.), 4-rings noted are 4, 5, 18, 21, 27), many cork cancels, a complete Toronto mutilated Berri duplex, a lovely group of dated copies (calendar collection) from AUG.6.1859 to JUN.14.1870 all from a multitude of different towns, including many small. There is a selection of railway cancels on 12 stamps, and finally we note extensive plated material, a few of which are glued on an old time large positional cardboard, as well as the most imprint copies we have ever seen in one place. Catalogue value is for all regular stamps only. A unique, and once in a lifetime opportunity to acquire an old time untouched collection full of interesting material. For the most advanced collector, or would be a great start to an advanced study of this fascinating definitive, in use for at least ten years. Scans only show a portion of the collection. (Image)
1859 5c Red Beaver on Very Thin Paper, mint with partially disturbed original gum, lightly hinged. A very fine and fresh stamp, with deep colour and quite desirable as such. Accompanied by a 2019 Greene Foundation certificate. A very nice stamp and ex. "Lindemann". Rsv. $4,000. (Image)
1859 5c Vermilion Beaver, a mint vertical pair with sheet margin at left, with full original gum (somewhat disturbed), lightly hinged. A lovely positional piece, showing the printer's imprint in the left margin and with both stamps well centered, also scarce with sheet margin, very fine. Accompanied by a 2020 Greene Foundation certificate mentioning a "horizontal gum bend across lower stamp". Unitrade does not price imprint stamps in the very fine column, therefore catalogue value is for two very fine regular OG singles only. Rsv. $1,800. (Image)
1859 10c Black Brown Consort Perforated 11¾, used with target cancel, with small tears, a small corner crease and missing small piece in upper left corner, very good appearance. Accompanied by a 2010 Greene Foundation certificate. (Image)
