Welcome to Phoenix Auctions Auction No.23

This is a relatively normal size auction of just over 1400 lots so we are back to our normal starting

time of 10:00am.

10 days after this auction Ken & David will be travelling to London for Stampex, which is being held

at the Business Design Centre in Islington from 18th-21st September. We have booth 20 and we

would be pleased to meet you there. Naturally we will be happy to accept consignments for our

future auctions. Where feasible, we are also happy to take any lots you might win in this auction

along for you to collect at the show.

Session 1 begins at 10:00am and incorporates The Rest of World. This section has a broad range

of stamps and postal history, amongst which is our back cover item, a previously unrecorded 1848

Ceylon postmark from Newhra Ellia on a cover to Kandy. There is also a very strong selection of

Chinese airmail covers with strength in the difficult WWII period. Our QV period GB is also strong

with a number of extremely rare items including an imperforate 1884 £1 brown-lilac overprinted

‘SPECIMEN’. In the USA Postal History section is one of the few registered Hindenburg covers to

Australia.

Session 2 begins at 11:30am and encompasses the Australian Colonies/States. NSW has some

nice imperfs, several proofs & colour trials, a 2/6d Lyrebird on cover (1 of 2 known examples)

and a select group of very rare numerals. In the SA section is a beautiful 1896 essay for a

newspaper wrapper. The Victorian section includes an amazing 1/- octagonal strip of 3 on cover

and a group of very rare BNs. Lastly, in the WA section is a 1912 pair with double ONE PENNY

surcharge, and some difficult revenue lots.

Session 3 begins at 1:30pm, after a lunch break. All the pre-decimal Australian lots are in this

session. Here you will find such desirable items as a solo 5/- CofA Roo on complete parcel label, a

5d Rough Paper on cover, a solo 1/4d Single Wmk on cover, a range of KGV cracked cliches. In

the later issues you will find a 1d green QE and 2d red KGVI blocks with large holes from the coil

sheets, a £2 Arms with the O for C ‘SPEOIMEN’ error.

The last session begins at 3:30pm. Here you will find decimal errors, postal history, FDCs, etc

including our new Covers by Manufacturer section. Many FDC and Commemorative cover

collectors collect by manufacturer and to facilitate this we have created a new grouping entitled

‘Covers by Manufacturer’. This section (lots 1224-50) is immediately prior to the FDC section. It is

organised by Manufacturer and includes FDCs, commemorative, flight covers etc all organised by

date. We hope you find this a useful enhancement

There is a ½d orange ovpt ‘OS’ block of 4 on a FDC, two rare Cobham flight covers, an

exceptionally rare AFPO/251 used by the War Reception Committee in Singapore. The highlight of

the territories section is an imperforate proof of the Norfolk Island 1c Gypsy Moth, a stamp

which was never issued.

How to Get the Most from The Phoenix Website.

While quite a number of our clients make full use of the many benefits our website provides, it is

obvious that most do not. So we are taking this opportunity to reintroduce these benefits to you.

The homepage provides an introduction to current auction, or highlights of the next auction as

appropriate. There are menus on the top left to provide different ways of accessing the auction lots.

Within each auction menu there are six submenus:

1. In Lot Order - this provides you with a lot order index to the auction by section headings. Simply

click on the section and it will take you straight to that part of the catalogue where you can see

each lot in order with its full description and all its images. The estimate and starting price and a

box for your bids are also displayed. Wherever the starting price is displayed it is always exactly

uptodate.

2. By Country - this provides a cross reference listing by country. You don’t need to go backwards

and forwards from the index to the catalogue listing anymore.

3. By Topic or Theme - the same as by Country but organised by topic or theme, and there are

hundreds of themes.

4. Description Search - this is used for wild card searching through auction lots. This is very

powerful and to get the most out of it please email us with search requirements so that we can set

it up for you.

5. Image Gallery - this displays every image in lot order. It is a great way to browse an auction.

6. Bulk Bid Entry - this enables you to enter your bids as a batch. So when you have worked out

all your bids you can just enter them on this screen rather than finding each lot and entering them

one at a time.

When you sign on with your Client Code and Password the full benefits are opened up to you.

There are 2 entries at the top of the auction submenus. These are:

By Collecting Interest - this shows all the lots which match your collecting interests.

My Image Gallery - this provides you with just the images for the lots you are interested in.

We ask you for your collecting interest so that we can provide you with these quick and easy ways

to view just those lots that are likely to be of interest to you.

Secondly there are new menus on the top right. These will vary from person to person and can

include any of the following:-

1. My Details - this is where you change your details and preferences

2. My Auction Bidsheet - this is the most important screen we have. It appears the instant you

enter a bid and it allows you to manage all you bids from the one screen. It always shows the exact

status of all your bids.

3. My Auction Vendor Lots - When you are a vendor this screen shows all your lots in this auction

with their current status. You always know exactly the situation with your lots.

4. My Mail Register - this shows you the details of every mailing with dates of mailing, registration

numbers, mailing addresses and which invoices are involved. It also tells you whether just an

invoice was sent or whether your lots were sent as well. Now you don’t need to call us to see if

your lots have been mailed. It is all here for you when you need it.

5. My Invoice Register - this provides the details of every invoice and you can drill down to every

lot on every invoice with their full descriptions and images. You always know exactly what is on

every invoice.

6. My Receipt Register - this provides a list of every consignment we have received from you. It

shows you every lot from each consignment with its full description and images, what auction it was

sold in and if it has not been sold what auction it is in. When you have large consignments spread

over multiple auctions it is just the screen to enable you to keep track of everything.


My Auction 23 Bidsheet.

As mentioned earlier My Auction Bidsheet is the most important part of the website when you

have placed bids in the auction, because it provides everything you need to manage your bidding.

With this screen you can change your bids, add limits to ensure you don’t overspend, enter Credit

Card details or other special instructions. And it always shows you the current status of your bids.

The lot is highlighted when you have the top bid so it is easy to see the current situation with your

bids.

As well as being able to modify your bids there is a +5% button which increases your bid to 5%

above the current starting price. At the bottom of this webpage there is also a field to globally

increase all your bids by any percentage amount. Very useful when your bids are all way below the

starting price or you want to give yourself that extra level of safety.

The website is there to help you get the most when dealing with Phoenix Auctions. We hope you

take a little time to use it to your advantage. Remember that we are always happy to help if you

have a problem or questions.

Terms and Conditions:These are found on the rear of your printed bidsheet and on the Phoenix website. At this auction

Buyer’s commission is 16.5%

HOW TO GET THE MOST FROM OUR CATALOGUE[These notes are offered as a guide to understanding the information given as symbols.]

1. Firstly, we have the lot number. All lots have at least one illustration on our website, and many will have multiple illustrations.

2. The second column contains a symbol, which represents the item(s) in the lot:** Mint, unmounted o.g. * Mint, mounted o.g.V Used, Very fine. F Used, FineG Used, Good H Used, HeavyU Used,quality unspecifiedW Unused, no gum D Piece

* Cover, card or S Stamp (“Postmarks” lots)PS Postal Stationery B Booklets or Booklet Panes

3. The 3rd column contains the general description of the of the lot and should be self-evident with one exception. When acatalogue value is extrapolated the value is followed by a ↕, e.g. $2000↕. Typical extrapolations are 40% of the cataloguevalue for hinged mint when the catalogue only provides values for MUH, 200% for MUH when the catalogue value is for minthinged.

The following notes apply specifically to postmark description.

Whenever possible postmarks will be described in full, except that the top portion of a postmark is only spelt out when itdiffers from the post office name or requires some clarification. Bracketed shaded text within a description indicates thatthese characters cannot be read, while greyed characters are hard to read or are only partly present, as is the case whenpart of the postmark is on the edge of a stamp. Very large or small letters are represented by large and small fontsrespectively; small fonts are particularly used to indicate the presence of small nylon wheels in the datestamp. The followingexample illustrates these points:

'[POST] OFFICE/21DE86/GARAH'.

After the forscription of the postmark we will indicate the overall quality of the cancel with a bracketed 2 character code. Thefirst character is A-D where A is a fine clear postmark through to D which is barely legible. The second character is a numberfrom 1 to 4 where 1 is complete including all the frame through to 4 where only 25% or less of the cancel is visible. Forexceptional strikes we will further qualify the quality code with a ‘+’ and for items which are light etc the code will be qualifiedwith a ‘-’.

For postmark lots the condition of the postmark is the most important aspect of our descriptions. Minor defects in the stampor cover are mentioned only when the value of the item is significant. Naturally, major defects will always be described.

4. The symbols in the second column, and the illustrations of lots, form part of the lot description.

5. The last column is the estimate. The reserve is almost always 75% of the estimate and bids below the reserve will notusually be considered.

6. No GST is added to the hammer price. The vendors have accepted responsibility for any tax payable.

7. We use the following standardised abbreviations:o.g. original gum opt(d) overprint(ed)d/s datestamp cds circular datestamph/s handstamp mss manuscript; handwrittenERD earliest recorded date LRD latest recorded dateo/o opened-out RLabel registration labelM/S(s) miniature sheet(s) PPC picture postcardimpt imprint mtd mountedprovl provisional wmk watermarkLDL large dateline (postmarks) SDL small dateline (postmarks)TLC,TRC,LLC,LRC Top Left Cnr, Top Right Cnr, Lower Left Cnr, Lower Right Cnr
