If just one or two percent of the millions of dollars spent on advanced exhibition philately had been saved an Australian Philatelic website equivalent to Wikipedia could have been built and maintained, enormously enriching the hobby in this country. 1

I recently received an advanced copy of a 2009 edition of an Australian stamp catalogue. It was referred to as a “pocket” edition - at 400gms and 20cm x 15cm it was too large to fit into my pocket! Of the 190 pages no less than 176 were devoted to decimals illustrating every single stamp tenant block, strip, miniature sheet, peel and stick sheetlet etc etc. In contrast the 14 pre-decimal pages were completely simplified with no watermark or perforation varieties and there was only a single picture to represent each set, all the commemorative sets were represented by the low value 2d red and the most prestigious set the Kangaroo on map series was represented by a single ½d green!! It was a superbly printed catalogue. However collectors want to be inspired not dumbed down. They want to buy a catalogue which is packed with information about the many issues of stamps and stationery items issued in the last 150 years, surely a project that Australia Post could have assisted with, given that it is the 200th anniversary of postal services.

The Stanley Gibbons Australian sectional catalogue comes close to achieving this for a cover price of A$45 and the Australasian Stamp Catalogue used to provide a very comprehensive listing.

The trick is to compress the decimal section into a much smaller area and do what catalogues for the last 150 years have done and that is to illustrate a representative stamp from each set.

This would enable the following to be achieved for the general public:

Australia: all the stamps to 2009 including watermark and perforation variations of the pre-decimal issues. Postal stationery including official, PTPO, military, POW issues etc.

Australian states: 1850-1912. A simplified listing of the stamps and postal stationery of the six states.

Australian territories: AAT/Christmas, Cocos and Norfolk Island/GRI/NWPI/Papua/New Guinea/P/NG to 1975.

That would be invaluable to the forgotten Australian collectors who want to expand their interest in the hobby. It would serve as a valuable compromise between the fabulous specialisation of the Australasian Specialist Catalogue volumes and the dumb down simplicity that is currently on offer. The last edition of the Australasian Stamp Catalogue was the two volumes issued in 2005!! The Australian section which has the invaluable listing of postal stationery has not been available for something like 18 months. What is the problem? We are not suffering the post-war austerity of 1946!

Certificates. These have always been important but in recent years the demand for expertising has increased significantly causing long delays. Normally I have arranged for certificates to be obtained either for vendors submitting material and secondly for bidders who ask for extension in order that a certificate be obtained.

There are about 60 lots missing from this sale that were sent for expertising in October/November 2008. I received the certificates early August and they were dated April 24. The expertising was at international standard and entirely satisfactory.

Not surprisingly delays cause concern for vendors who are waiting for their payment and also bidders who have paid for the lot in full (or a substantial deposit subject to a certificate). Therefore in the case of vendor’s material received I will contact the vendor indicating that the item needs a certificate but pointing out that there may be long delays involved. If this is unacceptable the item will be returned. In the case where a successful bidder asks for an extension they will be responsible for obtaining a certificate within 90 days (or a statement under the expertiser’s letterhead confirming that the item is genuine and will be given a certificate). Otherwise after 90 days the lot becomes the property of the successful bidder, unless the vendor is prepared to wait.

Finally a word of appreciation to those helping with this catalogue. To Patti who undertook typing the text, and came across new words, symbols and abbreviations known only to the Philatelic world and my handwriting which sometimes even I find hard to read. Any typos are however entirely my responsibility. Also to Mike Kouwen for the care and attention he gave to the photo plates and John McPhee for the lotting and description of British Commonwealth and Foreign lots.

Good luck with your bids! Robin Linke
