Asia/U.S./Worldwide Public Auction SALE #98

Saturday, December 4, 2004 5:15 P.M. AT The Florida State Stamp Show ORLANDO EXPO CENTER & MARRIOTT 500 W. Livingston Street Orlando, Florida 32801

Welcome to Michael Rogers' US, Asia and Worldwide Public Auction held in conjunction with FLOREX, the Florida State Stamp Show. After the great success of last year's Auction, and in response to our clients' recommendations, we have combined the Asia and Worldwide material into one catalogue, starting with US and continuing with the rest of the world listed alphabetically.

Some of the scarcer items in the country listings include US Blackjacks with 'Z' grills, the 1917-1919 5c, Washington errors in NH block of 12, modern with the 1989 Prehistoric Animals black engraving omitted in block of 4, pair, singles. There is a beautiful 1857 Canada 7 1/2d. green, so lightly cancelled it appears unused; the good 1917 Cayman Islands 2 1/2d. Deep blue War Tax stamp; 1925 Ceylon 50R.--1000R. GV issues ovpt. Specimen; many Portugal & Colonies working color proofs ex Waterlow archives and more. An ancient dealer's stock of British Empire QV issues only has been broken into country lots and we have packed the Auction with collections, accumulations and hefty 50 pound large lots to satisfy the growing demand for this type of material.

China/Asia abounds with a dynamic range of Shanghai Large Dragons, China, rare PRC and Hong Kong. Of special note are the PRC Liberation Area gems certificated, Cultural Revolution Mao unfolded NH strip & 1964 15th Anniversary S/S, and great collection (lot #309A). Exceptional Japan & Ryukyu Island opportunities are within. Our December public auction is especially well rounded for all.

Everything from single country collections to mystery boxes abounds. Make sure you take the time to search for your specialty, it's probably here! Happy hunting and good luck with your bids!

REMEMBER: We are constantly purchasing material and accepting consignments for upcoming general and specialized auctions, both Asia and Worldwide. If you are thinking of 'slimming down' your holdings in order to start a new area or simply to make room in the house, give us a call to discuss the best way of achieving the maximum return on your philatelic holdings.

Lots will be grouped only at the discretion of the auctioneer; his decision is final. 2. The auctioneer shall regulate the bidding and reserves the right to refuse any bid believed by him not to be made in good faith; in the event of a dispute, the decision of the auctioneer shall be final. Unreasonably limited bid sheets cannot be accepted; your "limit" should represent a significant percentage of your total bid sheet (i.e. bidding on 20 items for a total of $500 and limiting the total of your purchase to $50). 3. The highest bidder shall prevail at one advance over the second highest bidder. Unlimited or buy bids are not accepted. 4. There is a 15% buyer’s premium added to the hammer price. 5. Mail bids are accepted up until the day of sale. No bids are accepted for less than 50% of the ECV. In event of identical mail bids, the earliest received shall prevail. No unsigned bid sheets are accepted. Use the bid sheet in the catalog. Observe the bidding increments. Bid in US dollars. 6. All phone bids must be confirmed in writing.

Bidders who have established credit are expected to remit on receipt. No claims or returns accepted for any reason (except authenticity) after 14 days of receipt. Proof by the auctioneer of receipt of sending at the address submitted with the bid sheet shall constitute delivery.

The sale shall remain open until an opinion is rendered; however, no returns will be accepted under any circumstances more than two months from the date of sale. A finding of “no opinion” is not grounds for the return of a lot.

All lots for which an opinion is sought must be paid for at the time of notification. 16.

Under no account will we accept return of an encapsulated stamp.
