ESTIMATES Our sales contain many 19th Century covers and fancy cancellations. We have had many requests t o g ive th e estimated cash value on these lots.

IV means our estimate cash value on this lot is $30.00 to $40.00. Lots may actually realize more or less than these estimates and under no circumstances are these estimates to be considered reserves but merely a guide to bidding. E.

The Philip Little, Jr. Collection of

UNITED STATES REVENUE STAMPS The catalogue herewith offers our clients the most comprehensive collection of thes e stamps ever sold at auction. Mr. Little was an ardent collector of the strikingly beautiful fiscal stamps of our country for many years. During that time he not only amassed a fine showin g of r a ritie s and unusual pieces, but also gathered num ero us special studi es of platings and cancellations. A brief survey of each session will give some idea of the wealth of material offered h erein. Never before has an entire session been devoted to Revenue Essays and Proofs, as does the First Session of this sale on February 13, 1962. Many of the pieces are excessively rare if not unique, and the lovely arms d esign essayed for the Second Issue is present in strips and blocks. The Proofs in Trial and I ss ued colors are the greatest range eve r offered at one tim e and afford an unrivalled opportunity for collectors to acquire these beautiful and colorful items. Among the rarities in this group are the Second Is sue $200 and $500, and of course the notable $5000 in Green, orange and black. The Second Session is devoted entirely to th e classics of United States Revenues, the First and Second Issues. Here is a wealth of material for every collector of these stamps. The r arities include First Issue Imperforate pairs of the 3c Playing Cards, SOc Surety Bond, $10.00 Cha rter Party and the $200 U. S. Inter. Revenue. There are besides numerous multiple pieces of other imperforates, a number of which are the largest of their kind. The Part Perforates , and Perfora ted stamp s include such a range of material that it is difficult to sin gle out any thin g in particular, but in addition to the usual pieces, there are many studi es of plating, cancellations, papers, shades, and so o n. The Second Issue is replete wit h Inverted Centers, th ere being the lc, 2c, Sc, SOc and $1.00 values, and among th e normals are two of the multicolored $200, and two of the gorgeou s $500 "Persian Rugs." The Third Session opens with a fine range of the Third Issue, there being an Inverted Center $1. Green &.: Black, and continues through the remaining gro ups of R eve nu es. The 1898 includes the 2c "I. R." on back, the "Ocumentary" errors, and the $SO 1914 in a used block of eight, the larges t known! The Dated Issues of 1940- 1957 are well represented, denominations up to $10,000 being present. The Proprietaries of course begin with the Green & Black stamps of 1871-75, and include no le ss than a pair of the SOc, a $1.00 and two of the spectacular $5 .00. The next series includes three of the 5c Black, Rouletted. Th e Battleships include many of the elusive perforation varieties, while the 1914 iss ue has th e equally elusive 4Ysc Single Line watermark. The Future Deliveries are well represented, and in the Stock Transfer Issues th ere is a gran d range of the 1942-1952 series including many rare sin g les and multiple s. In the Wines there is the remarkable pair of the "$1.60% Dolllars" one without denomination. The Playing Card g roup is very strong, the rare varieties being well repre sen ted. The remainin g adhesives include the Silver Tax Issues, Tobacco Sales Tax, Motor Vehicles, Firearms, including th e $200 Blue, and other fine collections of re ven ue specialities. The final section of the sale is a remarkable showing of Embossed Revenue Stamped Paper, including a 2s6p British America, the so-called "Tea Party" stamp, on blue paper. This necessarily condensed summ ary should convince the reader that if there is anything in the realm of Revenues he desires it will be found in this sale.
