General Auction including Gold, Silver & Cars ( 14% Buyers Commission )
A collection primarily centered around British Post Office philatelic souvenirs commemorating the Royal Wedding of Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer on 29 July 1981. This includes souvenir sheets, booklets, and first day covers, such as one bearing a “21 OCT 1981 Liverpool” postmark. Further British themes include items related to the Royal Silver Wedding (likely 25th Anniversary, 1997), “A Hundred Years of County Cricket,” and the “British Post Office Belgica ’72 Souvenir.” International examples comprise a U.S. “Distinguished Americans Commemoratives” stamp packet and an Australian “Gales From Britain” booklet. Also included is a distinct non-philatelic item, a book titled “Madonna Nudes 1979.” All items are predominantly paper and cardstock, featuring various styles of typography and illustration typical of commemorative issues from the 1970s-1990s.
