Introduction
Dear Collectors and friends,
It is with great honour and anticipation that we hereby present the first part of the
Tatiana Collection of British Empire to the market. This catalogue has been produced
in record time mostly thanks to the dedication and hard work of our support team,
especially Alex Porter, our senior designer.
Marcus Orsi
Chief Philatelist
With no less than 50 countries, more than 1’900 lots are presented in this vast and valuable
assembly with emphasis on unused stamps showing errors, varieties, specimens, multiples
and many rarities including the desirable high values. Not since our offer and very successful
sale of the David Melat collection in 1986 have we had the pleasure to present such a
wide and attractive spread of British Colonials, with items on offer for the specialist and
connoisseur as well the general collector and dealer.
To help market and promote the collection to the British audience the auction will be held in
Pounds Sterling. We will also hold a special viewing of all single lots and selected / requested
large lots on June 18th and 19th at Adam House, 7-10 Adam Street, The Strand, London.
If you have a request to view a specific lot please contact [email protected] and
we will do our best to accommodate you.
David Feldman strives for excellence in lotting, presentation and production of every
major property entrusted to us. We invite you to visit us in person or via the internet at
www.davidfeldman.com to examine and determine those lots that may interest you. Note
that practically all group lots are now scanned and viewable on our website. If however
you wish extra scans please contact us at [email protected]. Please bear in mind
that, with only a few exceptions, the lots are offered without reserve, and at estimates you
should find attractive.
We wish you success with your bids and satisfaction with your purchases.
Geneva, May 2015
SELLING WITH DAVID FELDMAN: If the scope, presentation and results of this auction might get you to think
about the eventual sale of your collection, please feel free to discuss with us, at no obligation, the possibilities
we can offer you, and the best timing and location available. Please contact one of our philatelists at your
convenience. Results –YOUR results– really matter to us –as we know they do to you!

1887-91 Siam 8a green & yellow on piece tied by TRINGANU 26.5.92 cds, faults, the
first and only example discovered of a Siam stamp used in Trengganu
A report dated March 1895 stated “an overland line of Postal Communications had been
opened between Singora and Kelantan, via Patani and Ranga on the east coast of Malay
Peninsula.” This also mentioned that Kelantan (Kota Bharu) Post Office opened in 1895.
The Trengganu Post Office was obviously opened before this, the mail must have been
collected and delivered by sea.
On checking the first UPU Dictionary, published March 1895, both the Kelantan and
Trengganu (Tringanu) post offices were listed. This would mean that, allowing time for
publication, they were both open at the beginning of the year. The first supplement to
the UPU Dictionary, published July 1895, lists the Trengganu office as being closed, which
would account for the fact that this is the first example discovered. The closure of the
office was probably due to lack of business, or the opposition of the Sultan, or both.

Bids between these steps will be adjusted accordingly to
the next highest bid step. The bidder is bound by his offer
until a higher bid has been validly accepted.
2.2 DAVID FELDMAN S.A. has full discretion to refuse any
bidding, to divide any lot or lots, to combine any two or
more lots and to withdraw any lot or lots from the sale without in any case giving any reason. DAVID ­FELDMAN S.A.
may also bid on behalf of vendors in cases where reserve
prices have been fixed. In these cases, the vendor is treated
as a buyer and the auctioneer shall bid on his behalf up to
reserve prices. If the reserve price fixed by the vendor is not
reached, the auctioneer passes to the next lot by a simple
knock of the hammer.
2.3 Bid orders are only accepted from registered clients of
DAVID FELDMAN S.A. and/or its associated companies.
Live Room bidders must confirm their invitation prior to
obtaining a bidding number.
2.4 Bid orders received by DAVID FELDMAN S.A. including
via its website before the relative auctions have priority over
room bids in the case of Live Room auctions. Clients giving
bidding instructions to DAVID FELDMAN S.A. may make
alternative offers and/or limit the total of their expenditure
in advance. Bids marked "BUY" are considered as up to
ten times the quoted estimate price where such exists. Bids
made in other currencies than the advertised currency of
the auction will be converted into that ­currency at the market rate of the day of receipt by DAVID FELDMAN S.A. Bids
are standing and hold good for at least 60 days from the
auction period. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. reserves the right to
invoice bidders up to the end of the 60 day period, payment
being due immediately.
3. The auction
3.1 Unless explicitly stated otherwise, the currency of the
auction is the British pound. Attendance at the Live Room
auction is reserved for invited clients and/or their agents.
3.2 Prerogatives of David Feldman S.A.: DAVID FELDMAN
S.A. may withdraw, group differently, divide or refuse
to knock down any lot. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. reserves
the right to refuse any bid orders and/or for Live Room
auctions, refuse admittance to the auction room, at its
discretion, to anybody whomsoever. DAVID FELDMAN S.A.
cannot be held responsible for any physical accident that
may occur on the premises where auctions take place. In
the case a bone fide offer for the entire collection presented
in this catalog is received at least two weeks before the
auction date, and would be accepted by the vendor and the
auctioneer, it maybe withdrawn from sale and the auction
offer cancelled.
3.3 Bidders' representatives and auction agents: any person bidding for the account of a third party is fully liable for
any obligation arising from such bidding. This responsibility
is notably applicable for the verification of the condition and
for the payment of purchased lots.
3.4 Winning Bids: each lot is sold on behalf of the respective owner to the highest bidder who becomes the buyer
at one bid step over the next highest bid step; this is the
knock-down price. In addition to the knock-down price,
the buyer pays an all-in fee of 20% to cover commission,
charges and expenses including lotting fees, insurance,
packing, export formalities etc. whether all incurred in
particular cases or not. Cost of postage or shipping for
all lots is additional and will be invoiced separate from the
buyer all-in fee. On the knock of the hammer, liability for the
lots passes to the bidder whose bids have been accepted.
The lots are delivered to the buyer when the total sale price
(knock-down price plus all fees including postage or shipping) have been paid in full.
VAT (Sales Tax) - Notes for guidance concerning auctions
for which the lots are located in Switzerland: buyers domiciled abroad are not liable for this tax once the goods are
duly exported from Switzerland. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. are
pleased to arrange this export; alternatively, clients may
make their own arrangements and furnish DAVID FELDMAN
S.A. with proof of export, stamped by Swiss customs. Any
purchases by buyers who wish to keep their purchases in
Switzerland will be liable to VAT at 8% of the purchase price
in British pounds.
3.5 Payment: Sale price plus commission and postage or
shipping (if any) are due for immediate payment as invoiced
against delivery of the lots. Payment in other currencies is
accepted at the rates of exchange of the day as quoted by
a major Swiss bank. The bidders who are ­successful with
whom it has been expressly agreed that they pay after
the sale under special conditions, are due to pay the sale
price and the commission according to those terms. In
these cases, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. keeps the relevant lots
which are delivered to the buyers on full settlement of their
account. Delivery of the purchased lots by post, courier or
any other means if instructed by the buyer including cost
of normal transit insurance cover is at the expense of the
buyer. Title or ownership of the purchased lots, delivered or
not, remains with the auctioneer on behalf of the seller until
payment has been made in full.
3.6 Special extended payment facility: DAVID FELDMAN
S.A. may offer a special extended payment facility for
buyers. In these cases, the buyer may choose to pay a
minimum of 25% of the total invoice immediately, and the
balance over a maximum period of 6 months, paying an
equal instalment at the end of each month. Interest plus
charges of 1% is debited to the buyer's account at the end
of each month from the auction date. When the special
extended payment facility has been granted, the buyer understands that any claims regarding his purchases must be
made within 30 days of the auction sale date, even though
the lots may be held by DAVID FELDMAN S.A. awaiting full
settlement of the account. Until delivery, all lots may be
examined by their respective buyers at the offices of DAVID
FELDMAN S.A.
3.7 Pledge: until full settlement of the account, the buyer
grants to DAVID FELDMAN S.A. a pledge on any and all
properties held by DAVID FELDMAN S.A., acquired prior
to, during and/or after any auction. This pledge secures
the repayment of any amount due in principals, interests,
commissions, costs and other possible fees. DAVID FELDMAN S.A. is entitled, but not obliged, to realise freely
the pledge assets without further formalities and without
previous notice if the buyer is in default with the ­payment
of his debts or with the fulfilment of any other obligation
hereunder. For this purpose, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. is not
bound to comply with the formalities of the Federal Law
dealing with actions for debt and bankruptcy proceedings;
in addition, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. may choose to institute
or go on with the usual proceedings without having beforehand sold the pledged goods and without having moreover
given them up.
4. Guarantee
4.1 Extent of the guarantee: subject to paragraph 4.3
below, the authenticity of all philatelic items sold in the
auction is guaranteed for a period of 30 days from the auction date, with the express exclusion of any other fault(s).
Any reclamation regarding authenticity must come to the
notice of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. on the delivery of the
lots but at the latest within 30 days from that date. Before
delivery, which may take place after the 30 days period,
the lots purchased may be e
­ xamined at the Geneva offices
of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. The buyer whose reclamation is
made after 30 days from the auction date loses all rights to
the guarantee. Such reclamation will not be valid by DAVID
FELDMAN S.A.. If an extension of the ­period is required in
order to substantiate the claim with an expertise, a request
for such extension must be made to DAVID FELDMAN S.A.
within 30 days of the auction date. No request for extension
will be considered beyond this 30 days period. An extention
will expire 3 months after the date of the auction; the results
of the expertise for which an extension was agreed must
come to the notice of DAVID FELDMAN S.A. within that period. No further extension of the period will be considered
without the express written agreement of DAVID FELDMAN
S.A. Only claims, e
­ xpertise results or other details which
are made within the agreed periods will be valid.
4.2 Expertise and counter-expertise: should the authenticity of a lot be questioned, the buyer is obliged to provide
an expertise or counter-expertise from a prominent expert
in the field, justifying the claim. If a stamp is found by a
­recognised expert, ­taking financial responsibility for errors,
to have been forged, he may mark it accordingly. Consequently, the marking "FALSCH" (forged) is not considered
an alteration. In the case of such reclamation, DAVID
FELDMAN S.A. reserves the right to request, at its own
discretion, one or more further expertise(s). All expertise
and relative charges accrue to the vendor's account in the
case of a justified claim, or to the buyer's account if the
claim is not justified. In the case of a justified claim, the lot is
taken back and the knock-down price plus the commission
are refunded to the buyer. In the case of delayed payment
due to expertise agreed by David Feldman S.A., interest is
charged at 50% of the standard rate for all cleared lots. If
David Feldman S.A. has not agreed, then full interest is due.
4.3 Exclusions: lots described as collections, accumulations, selections, groups and those containing duplicates
cannot be the subject of any claim. Claims concerning
lots described as a set or groups of sets containing more
than one stamp, can only be considered under the terms
of paragraph 4.1 above if they relate to less than one third
of the total value of the lot. Lots which have been examined
by the buyer or his agent, lots described as having defects
or faults cannot be subjected to a claim regarding defects
or faults. lllustrated lots cannot be subjected to a claim
because of perforations, centering, margins or other factors
shown in the illustrations.
4.4 Late Payment: if payment of the knock-down price plus
commission due by the buyer is not made within 30 days of
the date of the auction, DAVID FELDMAN S.A. reserves the
right to cancel the sale and dispose of the lot(s) elsewhere
and/or to make a recourse to any legal proceedings in
order to obtain payment of the amounts due as well as for
any incurred damages and losses and any legal expenses.
A charge on overdue payment of at least 5% for the first
month and 2% per month ­afterwards plus expenses incurred is chargeable on any outstanding amount after 30
days of the date of the auction. The buyer who is in default
in any way whatsoever has no right of claim under any
circumstances.
4.5 Exceptionally, the knock-down price will be reduced
to the lowest winning bid where it is shown that the exact
same buyer has inadvertently increased the price by using
more than one medium of bidding on the same lot.
5. Applicable law and jurisdiction
Unless otherwise stated, all auctions as well as any rights
and obligations arising from them shall be governed exclusively by Swiss law. Any legal action or proceeding with
respect to the auctions shall be submitted to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of Geneva, subject to appeal to
the Swiss Federal Court in Lausanne. In every case, DAVID
FELDMAN S.A. shall also be entitled, at its discretion, to
sue any buyer in default at his place of residence; in such
case, Swiss law shall remain applicabl.
6. All Transactions:
These Conditions of Sale apply to all transactions of every
kind including those outside the auctions, with David
Feldman SA.
