ITEM 1 If you have wanted to add some early Victorian high values to your collection at affordable prices, this is maybe one for you. The 2/6 or 5/- issues of 1883 are lovely stamps to own, and you can choose either or both for just £19.95 each. They catalogue a chunky £125 each and stamps supplied will be good used of a grade akin to that illustrated. Please select the appropriate box on the order form so that we know whether you want the 2/6, the 5/-or both! Stock is limited, which is not altogether surprising given the attraction of the offer!

ITEM 2 This is the Victorian low value offer, the eight low values from the Jubilee set as pictured. Condition with used stamps inevitably fluctuates, and these are representative of what you will receive, condition will be sound used, without faults. This little assembly catalogues £60, and for those of you who are interested in such details, and aren't we all, this set was issued to commemorate 50 years of continuous reign. The stamps were issued in 1887 and Queen Victoria acceded the throne in 1837.8 sound used stamps for £19.95.

ITEM 3 Our offerings of Victorian and Edwardian stamps have been hugely popular, so this time we have gone back further in time, and put together a selection from our stock of Surface Printed stamps, namely SG 94, and 157, the 4d and 2 1/2d values illustrated. Stamps of this era are often prone to tiny imperfections, and the examples supplied may have very minor faults such as a short perf, but stamps supplied will be of a similar grade to those pictured. This pair catalogues at £75, so at£19.95 they are a snip!

ITEM 4
This is another Victorian offer for those of you collecting this period or starting to do so. The 1d red and 2d blue are stamps all collectors have heard of. These were issued imperforate in 1841. Post Offices literally cut the stamps from the sheets. These are SG 8 and 14 respectively. It would be another thirteen years before perforated stamps became available. The examples pictured were produced from 1855 onwards, and are SG 34 and 40. The same comments concerning condition as are made above still apply. Four Line Engraved stamps for £19.95.

ITEM 5 In Victorian and Edwardian times, Telegraphs were a popular means of sending messages, especially during the 1888-1910 period. This offer comprises two items. The first is an original telegraph, as it would have been received by the recipient. The message content of these will obviously vary, but the example illustrated is indicative of the item of Postal History you can add to your collection. The 1 shilling stamp pictured SG 117 - which itself catalogues at £35 - was frequently used on these forms, and combines very appropriately with the form to complete a fascinating historical pair.

ITEM 6 Last months Line Engraved selection was a humdinger, so this time around we've dug deeper into our stocks and can now offer a further selection of these fascinating early stamps. This group off our was issued and in use between 1858 and 1870, being the Bantam 1/2d (SG 48), the 1d (SG 43), the 11/2d (SG 52), and the2d (SG 45). These are all especially interesting as they carry plate numbers which form their own series, and these can be purchased separately to form a complete set in their own right once you've begun to collect them. The minimum catalogue value is £72, and condition will be sound, (stamps from this period do carry small faults, and there may be the odd short perforation or wrinkle). 4 line engraved stamps for just £19.95

ITEM 7
This pair of surface printed stamps is the chance to expand your collection of these items at an affordable price.

These too come with different plate numbers, and their catalogue value is even higher than that of the Line Engraved lot above.

ITEM 8
Here is another Victorian offer based on the Jubilee issue. The 41/2d, 9d and 10d are all key values and catalogue at £118. It isn't possible to do them for £19.95 in sound condition. This offer provides you with the chance to acquire the stamps in 'slight second condition'. This means that there will be small faults apparent on the stamp. Alternatively we can offer the 41/2d and the 9d values on their own - ie without the 10d - in sound/good used condition for £19.95. Please make sure you tick the correct box on the order form.

ITEM 9
The final parts of the Victorian Jubilee issue are now on offer. These have been left until last as they are the toughest to acquire. Three stamps are available, all at £19.95 each - or discounted of course if bought as a group - as follows. The 10d and 1/- Green are offered in good used condition, without faults. The 1/- Green and Red which is a very difficult stamp to obtain is offered in filler condition, but it catalogues £120 on its own. When removed from paper this stamp was very prone to the ink running if left in water for too long, and that is the type of example that will be supplied. If you want this stamp in good condition, obviously we can supply it but it will be substantially more than £19.95! Any of the above 3 stamps for £19.95 each.
