PART TWO OF THE BOB MURTON COLLECTION OF BRITISH POSTAGE DUE LABELS AND COVERS.
Following the exceptionally successful 9th September 2000 Cavendish Auction of the first 149 lots of this remarkable Collection, the second part of the Collection is offered hereafter. I was Clearly taken in by Bob's good health (and good looks!), when I said he had reached the tender age of 75 in the text of the September Catalogue; in fact he has reminded me that he is already 82. This may explain how he managed to amass such an extraordinary collection! For those who missed part 1, I refer you to page 60 of Cavendish's September 2000 catalogue, for the full background to Bob's collection. I must also mention that hammer prices averaged almost exactly 100% over estimates in the first auction, which proves that British Postage Due material has truly come of age.
