Worldwide Thematic Collection – FISH & FISHERIES, 113 Exhibition
Pages An important, wide-ranging thematic collection devoted to
fish and fisheries, mounted on 113 exhibition pages and previously
exhibited (Seven Nations Challenge, 2016). The collection traces
the development of mankind’s interaction with fish from
pre-philatelic letters through to modern issues, structured around
themes of subsistence, trade, technological progress, and
conservation. A substantial and exhibitable study, containing: 34
proofs & essays (including original artist’s drawings, colour
trials, die proofs, progressive plate proofs, etc.), ca. 500 stamps
(mint & used, worldwide, with numerous better sets and varieties),
111 covers & postal history items (pre-stamp letters, scarce
frankings, commercial usages, maritime and fishing-related
cancellations, postal stationery), 32 pieces (illustrating scarce
usages or cancellations),13 booklets. The material spans
pre-philatelic entires to 21st-century issues, with coverage from
all continents, and includes not only postage stamps but also one
or two revenues and cinderellas relating to fisheries. The pages
follow a carefully designed storyline: the earliest gathering of
mussels on the shore, the development of nets and boats, the rise
of the fishing industry and cod-liver oil production, technological
change, regulation and marine research, and concluding with fish as
both staple food and luxury product. The collection demonstrates an
admirable mix of philatelic depth and thematic storytelling, with
many items that would be competitive on their own in specialised
sales, and a wealth of supporting material. The presence of so many
proofs and essays ensures that this is more than a topical
“gathering”: it is a thematic exhibit-quality holding suitable for
expansion, re-exhibition, or breaking-down into valuable single
lots. Additionally, a quantity of unsorted loose material
comprising; 53 covers, 54 pieces and 4 proofs. A wonderful
opportunity to acquire the backbone of a major thematic exhibit on
one of the most popular natural history themes. Ex. Jørgen
Jørgensen "FISHERIES".
