We don't often see a sale of this calibre. Not only does it contain some very fine material, but as you will see in the Highlights , a number of the stamps offered are of an extraordinary quality. During the past year, the stamp market has seen a resurgence of interest and participation. New record prices are occurring regularly.
New varieties keep appearing.
The auction business seems to be thriving. All this has brought some of the finest Canadian stamps out from their hiding places and onto the market. It would take decades for any one collector to attempt to obtain a fraction of the material contained in this sale. It's that difficult to purchase in this condition. We expect our viewers will enjoy this auction as it proceeds.
