A remarkable assembly, selected throughout with a discerning eye for quality. The collection offers a formidable array of proofs and specimens, commencing with the 1883 2c. and 4c. stationery reply cards, lithographed by ABNC, each bearing the red overprint "Muestra" (Mena-Nr. MPC-1, 2), together with the extremely rare die proof in black of the completed head without value in tablet, with additional imprint below ABNC C-82 (DPPC-1a). The 1890 Litho by Waterlow & Sons issue are well represented, commencing with the 3 c. red card bearing the circular "Waterlow & Sons Specimen Cancelled limited" marking, an astonishing and absolutely unique item (PC-4). The 1903 issue, lithographed by ABNC, includes an extraordinary sunken die proof on large card, probably unique, of the 2 c. black (DPPC-12), whilst the 1910 litho by Waterlow & Sons issues, shows the 2 c. black die proof with imprint at foot (PC-12), together with a very rare 2 c. blue card with two security punch holes, bearing the red "Specimen" and additional "To Be Held For reference" markings (SPC-12). The envelopes are equally impressive, including the litho by Perkins Bacon, 1886 5 c., rare die proof in black (DPEN-1); the 1890 issue, represented by the unique special printing bearing the unrecorded "Waterlow´Specimen" perfin and unique imprint beneath the back flap (SEN-3); and, last but not least, the 1903 stationery envelope 5 c. blue, Type I with "Waterlow & Sons, Limited, London Wall", the unique unused example recorded (EN-5). The Impreta Lines wrappers show the magnificent set of four colour die proofs in black, red, green and blue, unique in private hands (DPW-2a-d). The collection displays a particularly appealing group of scarce usages and destinations, among this abundance of choice items a complete reply card 2+2 c. rose, 1903 lithographed by Waterlow & Sons, sent from San Jose (11 May 1904) to Postdam, replied to and returned from there (30 May) (PC-8); also some wreck mail, with 2 c. black card via New York to Germany, and bearing the special label "P.O.

Several rare postal usages of the 4 c. green wrapper are included, comprising rare domestic and foreign destinations, notably an example with additional franking addressed to the Costa Rican Consul to Switzerland (W-2).

York Sept 18 - Forwarded by Curtis Jr.", endorsed "Pr Mail Steamer Washington", on Ocean Line's second voyage from New York 23 September 1847 to Southampton 9 October. Prepaid with 24 cents, PAID handstamp applied, manuscript '1/-' British packet rate considered discriminatory for this already paid item. Note: In 1845, the United States Congress passed an Act granting a $ 100’000 annual subsidy for each ship contracted by the US Postmaster General to carry American mail to England and the Continent. In 1846, Ocean Steam Navigation Company was contracted to provide fortnightly service to Southampton and Bremerhaven. Two steamers, the "Washington" and the "Herman" were built. The British Government, on behalf of Cunard, protested the start of America’s subsidised line by charging all prepaid American mail full postage from British recipients. This became the British Discriminatory Rate and marked the start of the Postal War of 1847-1849. As a response, the US postal administration charged a Retaliatory Rate for prepaid incoming British mail between 27 June 1848 and 3 January 1849. Both countries restored their rates prior to the conflict by 3 January 1849. A new Post Convention was negotiated and came into effect on 15 February 1849.
