;) | ST. VINCENT - TEXT DESCRIPTIONS OF MAINLY 6,810 QV VILLAGE POSTMARKS - PRICE £500 Did you know that some St. Vincent village postmarks can fetch £500 to £1,000. Probably not. You can now order from "BUY THE BEST" section of my shop your own "work-in-progress" DIGITAL pdf copy (no refunds, but you are entitled two free updates when requested). This file has been assembled over 45 years, and the one or two copies sold will be "out there" for the students of the future to analyse and perhaps solve some of the many secrets St. Vincent holds. There are "unknown periods", and some of my observations may, or may not, still apply. Counting these text descriptions took 4 hours (132 A4 pages long), so no attempt has been made to proof read. The counts for offices are Barrouallie (447), Bequia (272), Biabou (181), Bridgetown (104), Buccament (98), Calliaqua (835), Canouan (102), Chateaubelair (397), Colonarie (473), Cumberland (184), Georgetown (547), Kingstown ("K" and ST. VINCENT cds, 482), Kingstown extended cds (689), Layou (225), Mayreau (54), Mesopotamia (331), Peruvian Vale (65), Rabacca (283), Stubbs (465), Union (276) plus smaller offices, "PP", "PD" handstamps etc. Provenance from main stream auctions is given when known, and descriptions from photocopies from other collections are coded. Gone are the days when the gang of 6 comprising Joe Chin Aleong, Ron Cronin, Vincent Duggleby, Peter Jaffe, and myself (the only survivor) would eagerly and regularly meet at Stephen Sharp's house at Pyrford, Woking, Surrey. This file is invaluable (and as such no trade or collector discounts), and buyers will find endless pleasure. Price £500 payable by WISE bank transfer (Barclays, Santander bank accounts closed), or by PayPal. £500 |
