Spink Shreves Galleries Sale - 123
The William H. Gross Collection - Western Europe and its Colonies - May 19, 2010
On Wednesday, May 19, 2010 another impressive collection formed by William
H. Gross – his collection of France and Colonies, German Offices and
Colonies, Italian States and Spain – will be sold at unreserved public
auction in New York City. And, again, both Sue and Bill Gross demonstrate
their remarkable generosity by donating this sale’s entire proceeds to
benefit Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières Emergency Relief
Fund.
The Gross Collection of France and Colonies, German Offices and Colonies,
Italian States and Spain is a remarkable assemblage of highly desirable and
seldom seen rarities of Western Europe and its Colonies. There is no
question this sale will generate great interest in these collecting areas.
As with all Spink Shreves auctions, bidders may participate in the auction
– live on the Internet – during the sale. Please see our website
www.SpinkShreves.com for details of this exciting bidding option
The Gross Collection of France and Colonies, German Offices and Colonies,
Italian States and Spain will be appropriately honored and preserved in a
special hardbound all-color auction catalog. It has been similarly designed
much like his catalogs for the now famous sales of his magnificent Great
Britain collection (which in 2007 realized the highest amount for any
single stamp auction ever conducted), his Scandinavia collection in May of
2008, his British Empire from October 2008, his British North America in
November of 2009 and his Confederate States of America, Postmasters’
Provisionals in November of 2009. These and any future Gross Collection
sales catalogs will certainly form an incomparable “set” for any philatelic
library.
Catalogs for the William H. Gross Collection of France and Colonies, German
Offices and Colonies, Italian States and Spain are now available for $40.00
each ($55.00 to non-U.S. addresses). Orders may be placed online using a
credit card at www.SpinkShreves.com or by calling 800-556-7826 or
972-788-2100.
