Spink Shreves Galleries Sale - 109
The Joseph Hackmey Collections of Classic Ceylon 1797-1870 Part I - February 18, 2009
The International Award-Winning Joseph Hackmey Philatelic Collections of
Classic Ceylon (1797-1870) and New Zealand (1855-1872) are, without a
doubt, the finest collections of these popular countries ever formed. Both
collections contain an impressive array of rare and unique items, several
of which have not appeared at auction in years.
The majority of stamps and postal covers featured in the Hackmey
collections come to the market with outstanding provenance. Many have once
resided in world renowned collections formed by such philatelic giants as
Ferrary, de Worms, Caspary, Dale-Lichtenstein, Pack, Stanley, Agabeg,
Pearson and John Woolfe.
These two exciting collections will be sold at Spink Shreves Galleries in
New York City on February 18th (Ceylon) and February 19th (N.Z.), and with
a further sale of each in the autumn of 2009. We are certain that
collectors of Ceylon and New Zealand, as well as new collectors from around
the world, will be thrilled with the opportunity to purchase items from one
of the most prestigious collections to come to the auction market in the
21st century.
