Very Fine (VF)-means that there is a slight deviation from the above. Fine (F)-means that the perforations do not touch the design on issues after 1890, but in some cases may just touch in earlier issues; if used, fairly lightly cancelled. Very Good (VG)-means that the appearance is generally fine but that the perforations cut the design slightly. Good (G)-means average off-<entering; or fairly attractive with slight defects Original gum (OG) is not to be expected on 19th Century stamps unless so stated. Mint-have never been hinged.

Y. 10022 (Tel. 212-PL3-6422) PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE In the past years a steady increase in the value of stamps has been evident. We are proud of the role that we have played in the development of important collections and the disposition of philatelic material through our auctions and at private sale over the past 35 years. Presently, record high prices are being established at every one of our auctions and market activity increases annually. We have sold substantially over one million dollars at public auction in the first ten months of this year and we can report that the market for fine stamps has never been stronger or more active. In the future we look forward with confidence to a continuing increase in the value of philatelic material as the demand for choice items continues to exceed the supply. We take pride in the fact that our organization, by virtue of its knowledge, experience, and continuing high standards is prepared to meet the challenge of the future in an ever growing market. We hope that, philatelically, your future and ours will be coincident. ROBERT A. SIEGEL IS YOUR COLLECTION FOR SALE?
