Welcome to Phoenix Auctions No.19

Welcome to our 2nd auction for 2013. It has been a bit of a rush getting this auction out

but, as you can see, we have managed it. For those who get our Boxlot Auctions you will

have already received notice that the next one is occuring on Thursday 29th March.

Australia 2013 will quickly be upon us. It starts on 10th May 2013 and finishes on 15th

May. Phoenix and Premier Postal Auctions have 2 adjoining stands, 194 & 195, opposite

the cafe, and we will be delighted to see you when you visit the exhibition.

The big event, for most of us, will be the holding of the Stuart Hardy Kangaroo Sale on

Thursday 9th May, the day before the exhibition starts. The auction will be on the website

and catalogues will be despatched in mid-April, giving you plenty of time to peruse this

spectacular catalogue. We have already taken this auction to viewing at Stampex in London

and we will have viewing on the 15th & 16th April at Philas House in Sydney as well as

viewing at Saphil House in Adelaide on the 23rd April. Viewing will be held in our Melbourne

Offices from 4th to 8th May.

Several people have asked us for the names of local auction Agents for the Hardy Roo

auction. So here are a few, in no particular order, who we know and trust. Naturally they

are also available for any other auction.

Mark Knothe - ph 0414 894 991, email [email protected]

Matt Hancock - ph 0401 976 018, email [email protected]

Hugh Freeman - ph 02 9977 5635 mob 0401 528 444, email [email protected]

Auction 19 is our usual large auction of nearly 1800 lots, which ensures there will be

something to appeal to just about everyone.

One of the first things the Rest of the World collectors will notice are the large number of

comprehensive European one country collections. So many, in fact that we have decided to

highlight them on pages 5-10. These collections represent excellent value and they should

be enthusiastically viewed by anyone with an interest in European countries.

Australian States collectors will have also noticed the large number of lots from

Queensland, these are mainly from the estate of Ron Waddington. Ron was an avid

philatelist who collected most aspects of Queensland philately, including stamps, proofs,

stationery, postal history and postmarks. We are pleased to be able to offer his collection to

you.

Queensland and Victorian numeral collectors will be spoilt for choice with the large number

of rare to previously unrecorded numerals we are offering as single lots in this auction.

Auction 19 naturally split itself into 4 sessions, rather than our normal three.

Session 1 commences at 10am with the Rest of World and other little bits and pieces. This

section has always been popular with our collectors. This session finishes with lot 592 and

we will then take a break for lunch.

Phoenix Auctions - Saturday 13th April 2013


Session 2 encompases our Australian Colonies lots. The session starts with lot 593 and

finishes at the end of the Western Australia lots with lot 1076. This is the session with Ron

Waddington’s Queensland and with most of our postmarks lots. It also includes

Colonial/State Postal History and Stationery, revenues etc. Our Railway Stamp collectors

will be very interested in some modern rarities we have for Western Australia at lots 1063-

68. Most of these items are unrecorded or only known from 1 or 2 examples.

Both South Australian and Commonwealth Stationery collectors will be very interesed in lot

782, our back cover item. This is an unadopted essay produced by JB Cooke for

consideration for the Commonwealth view cards that were being planned. These view cards

were produced in 1909.

Session 3 will commence at 2:30pm, after a short break. This session includes a few

Australian collection lots and then the Kangaroo, Georgian Head & other pre-decimal lots.

Here you will find lot 1152, our front cover item, this is the exceptionaly rare, commercially

used, 2nd Wmk 1/- plate 1 ‘JBC’ mongram strip of 3.This item is absent from both the

Gray auction and the Hardy collection. Collectors of the ever popular 1½d KGV Die I

stamps will be pleased to see many lots of plated flaws in this sesession as well.

Session 4 starts at 4:00pm. This is the last section of this sale and it contains the balance

of the Australian lots and the Australian Territories lots. Here you will find a wide range of

FDCs including many Challis covers, much Australian postal history etc. There is a very

rare Nauru 10/- with double overprint, a wide range of NWPI issues, and a PNG 1/7d

Cattle pair on cover, this is one of the great usage rarities of PNG.

Just to recap, we have split our auction into mutiple sessions with specific starting times.

While we may start a little later, we guarantee that we will not start earlier then the specified

starting time.

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 submenues. 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 19 Bidsheet.

As we said earlier My Auction 19 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

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 1 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
