Our July Sale #347 brings our anniversary auction.  We have come a long way in 44 years.  Each sale has more variety and more valuable stamps and covers.  How is the market?  Rolling right along.  The task of the auction is to do right by both the buyer and seller.  In this sale, some of our sellers will be extremely happy.  Lot 319, the U.S. #233a, was hiding in plain sight.  The collector was not aware of his special stamp.
