You may remember in auction UPA74 that we offered 255 lots that comprised a lifetimes' exhibition quality collection formed by a discerning British Collector. Over 70% of those lots sold in auction UPA74, but 75 of those lots are still available. Offering collectors a truly amazing opportunity to purchase rare and often unique archive and proof material, of which much has not been on the market for over 25 years since the dispersal of the printers archive auctions. Carefully broken into suitable lots, hopefully catering for all budgets. There is still a good array of material represented here from some of the stages of stamp production. We encourage you to revisit this material as almost always, some tempting morsels are, surprisingly, overlooked. We hope you enjoy browsing/bidding upon the lots from this important collection, it shall surely be many years before a collection of this calibre is seen again
