Featuring a 4-day series auction, Schuyler and Rumsey will showcase stamps from around the world, such as Great Britain, the British Commonwealth, United States, Europe, Asia, postal history, collections, and literature on philately.
Many items are from special collections, including American cancellations made by machines and the seals from various post offices. A featured item below is a postcard from Seattle, bearing Benjamin Franklin 1c green 1706-1790 series 1902 stamp, with a cancellation seal from Alaska-Yukon.
Estimated price starts from $3,000.
Another featured lot will be a cover from France. It is marked with one franc bright vermilion Ceres stamp and black Ceres of 20-centime stamp.
Estimated price starts from $150,000.
Next one comes a letter dated by 1867. It was sent from Hong Kong to Hamilton, NY, featuring stamps from both of these countries which make it quite valuable.
Estimated prices start from $50,000 to $75,000.
The last one that is worth mentioning in this article is an error from Hawaii (1893). This green 6 cent stamp was later overprinted in black instead.
Estimated price starts at $4,250.
