  • JSP Vol 04 No 11 1966Jul
    V v v JiotipMfcAt Number 11 July 1966 Volume 4 THE CASES 0? THE "DIRTY DOZEN" - Harold Wasserman - In the field of philately, even after many years, there are many problems which have defied solution. Many experts have tackled these Items, but complete answers are still lacking. The field of sports collecting is certainly no different. After all, isn't every sports stamp still a stamp from a country? Isn't a philatelic problem to a collec­ tor of, say, Austria a matter of concern to sports collectors if the stamps involved are the First and Second Ski sets? Now, If these problems involve sports stamps, shouldn't we, as sports philatelists, make a determined effort to help in their solution? There are a number of unresolved questions dealing with sport stamps. I have select­ ed twelve of these, which I call the "Dirty Dozen". I would like to present one of these to you to see if among us we cannot come up with an answer. Case 1: The Case of the Disappearing Cancellations In 1946 Albania Issued a set of seven stamps in connection with the Balkan Games held in Tirana, October 6-13, 1946. (Incidentally, "Landmans" and Seebacher label it the Tenth Games whereas "Schmidt-Schneider" call it the Twelfth.) Supposedly 50,000 sets were is­ sued. Certainly I have found no information to contradict this number. Mint sets are by no means plentiful, but they can be found. The current catalog price of §15.75 ($2.25 Per stamp right down the line) is misleading. Dealers who are up on the market charge from $15.00 to $20.00 per set, when they have them.
