At David Feldman, Excellence in Philately, A Passion for Rarities

This catalogue is typical of the presentation, preparation and philatelic knowledge we bring to EVERY major property consigned to us for sale through our semi-annual auctions. Our knowledgeable staff of philatelists and other specialists work to create a true “labour of love” which showcases in an appropriate manner EVERY rarity, specialised collection and large lot, based on over 40 years’ experience in the philatelic marketplace.

The “Crown Jewel” of Philately, the famous “Bordeaux Cover,” franked by the complete 1847 “Post Office” issue of Mauritius, sold through our auctions in 1993 for CHF 6'123'750 − the all-time world’s record for ANY philatelic item!

If YOU have a property which may be for sale in the future, it will literally pay you to contact us. Every auction company trumpets “high prices,” but we have set - and hold - world record prices in every area of philately, from individual rarities to large lots. If you want to be sure of obtaining a great result for your great philatelic property, get in touch as early as possible, because preparation in good time is key.

Our auction series each Spring and Autumn both feature a separate catalogue of Rarities (often including highly specialised collections offered intact), large lots and estates, plus stamps and postal history from the world over, with separate specialised auction catalogues as warranted.

Items for inclusion in our Autumn auctions must reach us by late June, and for our Spring auctions by mid-January. We can arrange to meet you at your home or office, as our staff travels extensively and we have representatives in 25 countries, on every continent, world-wide.

If results matter to you (and we are sure that they do), call or write to us so that we can begin to work together, as your “reliable partner,” towards the intelligent presentation and promotion of your collection, exhibit or other holding.
