The "Global Philatelic Network’s rarities auction by H.R. HARMER in cooperation with Corinphila, Heinrich Köhler and John Bull" will be held, in the spirit of "keeping the best for last", on the last day of the World Stamp Show New York 2016, 3 June 2016, at 1 pm. Valuable philatelic rarities from all over the world will be offered for sale in two parts, with emphasis on the collecting areas of United States and the Confederate States.
A highlight of the first part of the auction is a "postmaster provisional" 10 c. stamp of Marion, Virginia on a letter to Kingston, Tennessee with a starting price of $US15,000. Only seven of these stamps are known on cover. Stamps and blocks of the Spanish Philippines are offered as another highlight. An unused block of four of the 5c. stamp of the 1855 issue adorns the catalogue and starts at $US15,000. Then a selection of philatelic gems of the Confederate and United States from the "Erivan" collection comes up for sale. Among other items from the time of the "Postmaster Provisionals" is a cover of 1861 with the 10c. Blue stamp of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, awaiting a new owner with a $US35,000 starting price. It is the only known example of this stamp on cover. From the same year a postal stationery envelope of Nashville, Tennessee with additional franking is on offer. The 10c. Green Nashville stamp is combined with US stamps on the cover, cancelled with the Adams Express Co. postmark and carried by this firm. The cover is estimated at $US40,000.
