Samuel Allan Taylor :

Never seen any for sale at auction
or anywhere else either.
Not even in an auction catalogue.

BTW images preceding were from
"The Postage Stamp"
It's history and recognition

LN and M Williams 1956

Their are a lot available on ebay among others. You just need to know what to look for. After I cut up a few trees tommorow and clean some other storm mess I'll try to get a list together.

Another connection to S. Allan Taylor's fakes. Check out Figure 10 on Page 2 of this newsletter:

(By the way, it's the first time I ever heard of the name "paraphilately" to describe collecting stamps of this type!)

wt1 does it again :)
Thanks.

Paraphilately
It's just what one person has coined,
another name to confuse for mine.

Nice pieces on precancels, cinderellas etc
a nice *.pdf to download

An excellent thread - it never ceases to amaze me what you learn here at SCF - I can feel the knowledge!!

Ok, Here goes. This is a long way from complete! Many of these listed were also made by Scott, Moens and others as well. Some were real companies and others pure fantasy. For anyone interested get a copy of the Springer caalog Vol. 9. It has an excelent listing of the S. A. Taylor Locals and School Stamp's, it does NOT list His Forgeries or Confedeate's

I would never collect Taylor's fakes except surely if I find a used one postaly used with a cancel that I can read the city. Have to beware also of the fake cancel...

Believe me, SCF change my life, day and night

Thank you so much revstampman for the list ...

I tried to look them up in ebay & could find only two pieces! Better than nothing I guess!

If you have ever come across a dealer/seller who sells such please let me know?


Cheers

An old thread, but very interesting content.

I was just looking at some poster stamps on ebay and came across a listing for this one. At least this example concedes that his products were "bogus":
