Interasia Auctions Limited Sale 74 Hong Kong & Treaty Ports
The over 500-lot sale of Hong Kong and Treaty Ports and Macau features an outstanding Macau collection in addition to Interasia’s customary strong and varied offering of Hong Kong and Treaty Ports. The Hong Kong stamps feature a very fine mint 96c. olive-bistre, as well as the 1891 Jubilee double overprint (ex Rose-Hutchinson) and rare modern QEII varieties. One of the finest known Shanghai “Sunburst” covers (ex Ishikawa and Richard Chan) highlights the substantial Hong Kong and Treaty Ports postal history offering that again includes a section of rare Shanghai postal history. An outstanding collection of Macau (140 lots) concludes the auction and includes the 1913 Don Carlos I local “Republica” overprint rare 8a. in a complete sheet and the 10a., considered the rarest stamp of Macau, in a marginal strip of three, as well as modern rarities, including the 1955 unissued Fourth Centenary of the Portuguese Establishment in Macau set of four and the 1981 Portugal-inscribed Camoes set in marginal blocks of four.
