Centering The width of margins and the centering of the design within perforations are graded in strict accordance with the Scott Standard Catalogue standards. The following grades are used: Extremely Fine (EF): Exceptionally large margins or n ear perfect centering, used to describe stamps which are of superior grade for the issue. Very Fine (VF): Normal size margins for the issue and well-centered with design a bit closer to one side. Fine (F): Imperforate stamps may have smaller than usual margins and perforated stamps will be noticeably off-center. Issues before 1890 may have the design touched in places. If used , fa irly lightly cancell ed . Very Good (VG): Attractive appearance, but margins or perforations may cut into. Good (G): Averase off-centered example with sli ght faults. This condition is generally acceptable for multiples and rarIties. Gum Stamps issued before 1900 should no t be expected to have original gum unless specifically stated in the description. issues may be expected to have original gum unless described otherwise. Terms used to describe the condition of gum are as follows: Mint: As issued by the post office and never hinged. Original Gum (O.G.): Stamp retains full original gum showing slight disturbance caused by previous hinge, which may be present or entirely removed. Early 19th century stamps should be expected to show crackling and toning in gum, which occurs naturally over time. Part Original Gum: Up to half of the gum is miss ing, but the remaining portion is original. Disturbed Original Gum: The gum is original to the stamp, but has been noticeably affected by hinge removal and/ or humidity, mount glazing, etc. Hinge Mark: Noticeable area where hinge has been removed and gum has been redistributed. Stamps described with hinge marks may not be returned because of gum disturbance. Hinge Remnant (H.R.): All or part of hinge remaining affixed to gum. Covers Minor nicks, tears and sli ght reduction from opening are to be expected in 19th century covers. Folded lette rs normally have tears in the reverse and file folds, which will not be mentioned unless they affect the stamps or markings. Light cleaning of covers is an accepted form of conservation and is not grounds for re turn of a lot. The terms "Extremely Fine", etc., are meant to convey the overall appearance of cover, no t the condition of an individual stamp. Catalogue Values and Estimates Unless o therwise noted, U.S. stamps are catalogued according to the Scott 1996 U.S. Specialized Catalogue or Volume 1 (previous editions have been used to catalogue certain Special Printings). Scott 1996 or 1997 Volumes 1-5 have been used for British and foreign stamps. The 1996 Stanley Gibbons British Commonwealth Catalogue and other foreign catalogues are cited where appropriate. Catalogue values are indicated by decimal figures in the right column (for example, "175.00"). Stamps in extremely fine quality and items for which catalogue values are not available have been given estimate ranges (for example "E. 750-1,000"). Lots offered subject to a reserve will never be reserved for more than the estimate (usually a fraction of the estimate).

PREFACE h e Johns Hopkins University, founded in Baltimore in 1876, was the first university in T the Western Hemisphere founded on the model of the European research institution, where research and the advancement of knowledge were integrally linked to teaching. Its establishment began a revolution in American higher education, leading to the research university system as it exists today. Today the University enrolls more than 16,000 full-time and part-time students on three major campuses in Baltimore, one in Washington, D.C., and facilities throughout the Baltimore-Washington area and in China and Italy. Hopkins remains a leader in both teaching and research. The School of Medicine is one of the best anywhere, and the School of Hygiene and Public Health is renowned for contributions to preventive medicine worldwide. The other divisions, though smaller-by design-than similar schools in other institutions, include eminent scholars and numerous highly ranked departments. In all, the University has eight academic divisions. The Zanvyl Krieger School of Arts and Sciences, the G. W. C. Whiting School of Engineering, and the School of Continuing Studies are based at the Homewood campus in northern Baltimore. The schools of Medicine, Hygiene and Public Health, and Nursing are in East Baltimore, sharing a campus with The Johns Hopkins Hospital. The Peabody Institute, founded in 1857 and a leading professional school of music, has been affiliated with Johns Hopkins since 1977. It is located on Mount Vernon Place in downtown Baltimore. The Paul H . Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, founded in 1943, has been a Hopkins division since 1950. It is located in Washington, D.C. The Applied Physics Laboratory is a division of the University co-equal to the eight schools, but with an academic mission. APL, located between Baltimore and Washington, is noted for contributions to national security, space exploration and other civilian research and development. J ohns Hopkins ranks first among United States universities in receipt of federal research and development funds. However, private philanthropy has provided the impetus for development of The Johns Hopkins University and Hospital into the world-class institutions they are today. They are named for Baltimore merchant Johns Hopkins, whose $7 million bequest-the largest U.S. philanthropic gift to that time-was divided equally to finance their establishment. A more modern benefactor, Mr. Edward M. Passano, has contributed his collection of British Commonwealth stamps, formed over a period of more than 70 years, to his alma mater. A member of the Class of 1927, Mr. Passano is an articulate spokesman for charitable giving in general and for support of Johns Hopkins in particular.

THE EDWARD M. PASSANO COLLECTION OF BRITISH COMMONWEALTH Offered on Behalf of Johns Hopkins University

Special Note Concerning Gum: All issues prior to 1900 should not be expected to have original gum unless specifically stated so in the description. Issues from 1900 on will have original gum unless described otherwise. Please note that British expertizing services will frequently describe hinged stamps as having large part original gum or part original gum, when the equivalent American description is previously hinged. Such differences in nomenclature are not grounds for the return of any lot in this sale.

All individual stamps are illustrated in color.
