TPO Auction Summer 2008
Bidding opens to Society Members on June 15th and closes on July 15th 2008
The TPO & Seapost Society holds regular quarterly Postal Auctions for Members. Auction bid forms and printed lists accompany the TPO Journal. A variety of different material is available each quarter covering Sea posts, Paquebots, TPOs, Railways (RPOs), Books and Literature.
If you are thinking about expanding your present collecting interest to include TPO, Paquebot or Seapost items then have a look at the First Come - First Served auction items at the end of the list. These would provide a good source of foundation material to add to an existing country or themed collection. The connection with ships, railways or mail handling at sea may provide a new sideline to augment and revitalize your existing interests.
The lists for the auction may be viewed on the pages accessed below. If you are interested in this type of material then please become a Member of the Society to be eligible to bid.
