The Uttama Series of Indian States - Part II - July 28, 2020
Stanley Gibbons are very pleased to bring to you the second instalment of the Uttama series of Indian States auctions. The first Uttama sale was a resounding success, spirited bidding and solid realizations, demonstrating that interest in the Indian States is alive and well. This sale completes the run of Indian States through to Wadwhan, as well as revisiting States earlier in the alphabet and contains numerous items which have not been seen on the market in many years. In part two of the Uttama series we see a fine range of interesting varieties, both listed and unlisted; even the most experienced dealer or collector will find a large number of items never encountered before and, in some cases, whose existence was never even suspected. The range of multiples on offer is quite exceptional
