The Royal Philatelic Collection - King George VI Signed Copy. The magnificently produced volume published by The Dropmore Press Ltd, sumptuously bound, enclosed within a board case, the first page signed "George R" by King George VI, also inscribed "A Right Royal Binding JW" by Sir John Wilson, Keeper of the Royal Philatelic collection and author of the book. King George VI died on 6th February 1952, the same year this book was published; there was therefore almost no chance of getting a copy signed by the King, this copy probably being an early proof edition. The only King George VI signed copy we have recorded and probably unique, the book and case both exceptionally fine condition.
