An exciting new discovery of a significant rarity, in superb condition! Ted Proud states Ratnapura opened only in 1861, while Geoff Oxley's ERD for any Ratnapura marking is 1858. Here is proof that there was a post office at Ratnapura as early as 1832. View details Estimate$1,400Price Realized$1,050StatusSold SymbolcGradea+ Lot #1649 1836 commercial outer to Jaffna with a superb strike of the rare crowned-shield 'COLOMBO/POST N-PAID/ FEB9/1836' d/s (as Oxley #6; Proud #UP3 but with reset date) & rated "1/", significantly aged/dessicated paper but still attractive. A new discovery: Oxley recorded #6 only in 1831 & his information & illustration were repeated by Proud. This example is 5 years later, & 6 years before the next recorded "not paid" d/s. The crown is significantly different but that on the Oxley/Proud illustration View details Estimate$250Price Realized$200StatusSold GSTex GSTSymbolcGraded Lot #1650 1840 OHMS outer to Kandy with very fine strike of the rare crowned-octagon 'COLOMBO/POST FREE/5AU5/1840' d/s (as Oxley #7 but only tentaively listed by him; Proud #OPD8 - note the Reversed 'S' in 'POST'). Superb! [Our opinion is that Proud's #OPD7 & 8 are the same implement. The statement that #OPD7 is "PD6 adapted" can't be correct because that d/s is recorded until 1843] View details Estimate$400Price Realized$320StatusSold GSTex GSTSymbolcGradea+ Lot #1651 1853 OHMS outer signed "Ga MB Worms", to Kandy with horseshoe 'PUSILAWE/("23 Decr 53")/=POST-("Free")' h/s (Oxley #21 - "Free" not recorded; Proud #D2) b/s, perversely endorsed "Retd for Postage" but with a second "Free" b/s of "25th Decr 53" (Christmas Day). Rated B+. A remarkable item. [Ted Proud's two similar outers - neither with the "returned" endorsement - sold at the Prestige auction of 2/10/2010 for $345 & $391 respectively] The signatory was almost certainly a relative of Baron Anthony View details Estimate$400Price Realized$300StatusSold GSTex GSTSymbolcGradea- Lot #1652 SRI LANKA: 1975-88 four imperforate proofs in printers' folders & a bundle of 74 M/Ss, (apparently all different) unmounted but some toning/spotting.

[The Tamotherampillai stamp was withdrawn when, at the last minute, it was discovered that the wrong portrait had been used! An example of that FDC - minor blemishes - sold for $264 at our auction of 24/4/2009] (450+) View details Estimate$250Price Realized$300StatusSold GSTex GSTSymbolcGradea/b Lot #1654 COMMUNIST ISSUES: 1930s-40s mostly mint/unused array on Hagners with numerous better singles & sets including North-East China, Manchukuo & Overprints, lots of Overprints/Surcharges on Sun yat-Sen issues including Kwangtung, duplicated Heavenly Gate issues, etc, also modest Imperial issues & Russian Post Offices Surcharges, generally fine to very fine. [This collection was formed by a guy who was buying China when most people treated it with disdain. We therefore expect they're all genuine.
