Welcome to our 82nd sale, which is an online auction only, comprising 1,340 lots featuring a wide range of Australasian and All-World material.  

There are 280 lots of Australian Colonies, with strength in New South Wales and Queensland, and featuring a range of scarce and rare stamps and postal history. A highlight is the study of the Moreton Bay District, the various numeral obliterators shown in the finest quality, and complemented with some fine covers. There are also good groups of both New South Wales and Victorian postage due stamps. .

Australian Commonwealth has some fine MUH Kangaroo issues and a wide range of George V stamps concentrating on the plate varieties, with strength in the 1d values. The Decimal period includes a range of booklet errors, the Counter-printed Stamp study formed by Richard Peck, and a number of decimal postage lots.

The postage due issues are superb and includes many of the key items of these issues. The monocolour issues have some unique mint blocks, and an unparalleled offering of the rare high values with genuine contemporary cancellations. Amongst the bicoloured issues are examples of virtually all the perforations errors, an exceptional group of plate numbers from the later issues, the best collection ever assembled of the monograms and imprints including many unique items. A further highlight is examples of the rare perf 11 and compound perf stamps of the 1909-10 and 1912-31 issues which rank amongst Australian Commonwealth rarest basic stamp issues and which seldom appear on the market.

The postal stationery has a fine range of George V official postcards, and an extensive collection of the 1d, 1½d and 2d George V Sideface lettercards. A diverse range of postal history completes the Australian offering.
