MICHAEL “DICKIE” BIRD

The youngest of five children, Michael David Bird was born in Edmonton, North London in 1938. He was only a baby when thewar started so was not subjected to the trauma of being evacuated and stayed at home with his mother in Muswell Hill.

He started school nearby and then moved on to a church school where he showed considerable academic potential. It was herethat he developed his love of football and became a loyal Arsenal supporter.

His other hobby was stamp collecting. His childhood stamp collection survived the test of time and was passed down to hisdaughter, Samantha.

On leaving school at fifteen, he decided to follow a career in the City of London and joined a well known shipping firm, UnitedStates Lines until he was called up for National Service in 1956. He was stationed at Devizes and Reading from where he wasposted to Hong Kong and given the opportunity to see life in the Far East. In those days letter writing was the main form ofcontact and his brother Geoff, used to send him local newspapers and Arsenal programmes.

After demob, he returned to his job in the city and saved hard to buy his first car.

He first saw Josephine, his wife-to-be, in Highgate, North London and made his approach by offering to carry her shopping bags.This obviously had the desired effect and their courtship involved many a night dancing at the local dance hall.

They married in 1963 and moved into a bedsit with kitchen, and in 1967, their daughter Samantha was born.

This inspired him to start his own business and in 1971, they moved out to what would be their lifelong family home near Epping,Essex. He started his own shipping company, Professional Transportation Services from premises in Buckhurst Hill. His son Jameswas also born in this year.

It was after completing his collection of children, that Michael started collecting bank notes at almost 35 years of age. He hadalways been interested in paper money and it was the purchase of his first White Fiver that gave him the ‘bug’ and got him started.That is when he became a Notaphilist.

Josephine recalls him regularly saying “I’m just off to London to see Barnaby” and he would return with his briefcase and privatelyview his new purchases. He didn’t always show her what he’d bought, and she compares it to being just like women buying shoes!

Barnaby Faull and Pam West helped him with his collection over the years to be what it is today.

Michael died in 2004 and now the time has come for the family to sell the collection. They very much hope that whoever buysany of the notes will cherish them and get as much pleasure out of them as Michael did.

Josephine, Samantha and James Bird.

Value Added Tax (VAT)

Charging of (VAT) at AuctionThe information shown on this page sets out the way in which Spink intends toaccount for VAT.

i. Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme1. Where possible, we will offer Lots for sale under the Auctioneers’

Margin Scheme. Such Lots can be identified by the absence of anysymbol next to the Lot number in the catalogue and will not besubject to VAT on the Hammer Price.

2. Where Lots are sold using the Auctioneers’ Margin Scheme toVAT–registered businesses, the VAT included within the Buyers’Premium is not recoverable as input tax. Upon request on sale day,we will issue invoices that show VAT separately on both the HammerPrice and the Buyer’s Premium. This will enable VAT-registeredbusinesses to recover the VAT charged as input tax, subject to thenormal rules for recovering input tax.

ii. Zero-Rated LotsLimited Categories of goods, such as books, are Zero-rated (o) for VAT inthe United Kingdom. Such Lots are offered under the Auctioneers’ MarginScheme. In these circumstances no VAT element will be included withinthe Buyer’s Premium.

iii. Daggered LotsLots which are Daggered (†) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 20%on both the Hammer Price and the Buyer’s Premium.

iv. Starred and Omega LotsLots which are marked (x) in the catalogue are subject to VAT at 5% onthe Hammer Price and 20% on the Buyer’s Premium which is shown asinclusive of VAT. Lots which bear the Omega symbol (Ω) are subject toVAT at 20% on the Hammer Price and on the Buyer’s Premium. Such Lotsbear VAT because the Lot is liable for VAT at this rate on importation intothe EU.

v. Investment Gold LotsLots marked (g) in the catalogue are exempt from VAT on the HammerPrice and are subject to VAT at 20% on the Buyer’s Premium. A refund ofVAT charged on the Buyer’s Premium can also be made on receipt of proofof business as a collectibles dealer.

vi. Imported LotsLots which are marked (x) and Lots which bear the Omega symbol (Ω)have VAT charged on the Hammer Price and Buyers’ Premium becausethey have been imported into the United Kingdom from outside the EU.In these cases we have used a temporary importation procedure, which ineffect means that the point of importation is deferred until the Lot has beensold. At this point the Buyer is treated as the importer and is liable to paythe import VAT due. We will collect the VAT from you and pay it to HMCustoms and Excise on your behalf.
