One of the most interesting items to come from Sale 3013 is a set of 15 imperforate sheets presented by Postmaster General James A. Farley to the Third Assistant Postmaster General in 1934. No more than a handful of these sheets were ever produced from the original printing, and many have since been broken up or ended up in museums. Therefore, these sheets represent rare chance to own a true piece of philatelic history. As always, there are many other items of interest in our regular sale. A massive dealer stock of United States and worldwide postal history and a collection of high-grade mint United States stamps are just two of the properties we are proud to be offering; with over 175 unique consignors, this sale represents our most diverse offering in quite some time.
