Still going through pages and glassines of this collection and I am finding quite a lot of Revenues. This man obviously had a great interest in them but had not quite got around to organizing what he had.
Having sold all the Revenue Books from the Literature collection, I am now stuck for some answers.
Here are a few scans, there will be many more if someone has the patience to help.

Later I will need help with Perfins and Postal Stationery too








The one below I know what it is [I think] and I have a market value for it. But was it ever issued ? Or was it discarded?



Thanks in advance for any snippets and tidbits.

Thanks Bob !

Here are some more Revenues. If anyone knows a rough value I would be grateful.
There are loads more to come but for now.........

The first one I believe is a Revenue [I might be wrong] and one which I thought I saw recently on the forum somewhere. But I did not find it during a search.
The surcharge/Overprint is in red and I cannot read it due to the strong-coloured stamp. My daughter, who is studying Arabic, also said it was difficult.
If anyone can help.........



The rest I'll number to make it easier should anyone have any info...many thanks in advance.

Hi Londonbus1, according to my Barefoot United Kingdom Revenues (2010) catalogue, your stamps are (in the order you posted them):

Isle of Man
#62 - QEII - 1960 - 6d claret and black - cat. £2
#65 - QEII - 1960 - 2s6d green and black - cat. £3.50
#67 - QEII - 1960 - £1 claret and black - cat. £10
#47 - KGV - 1921 - 1s on 1s green and black - cat. £10
#48 - KGV - 1921 - 2s on 2s green and black - cat. £10

Companies Registration
#25 - KGV - 1921 - 1s green and green - cat. £7.50
#21 - KEVII - c.1915 - 4d clart and green - cat. £7.50
#19 - KEVII - 1902 - 5s green and green - cat. £25
#23 (wmk. Mult Orb IR) or 23a (wmk. Orb) - KGV - 1921 - 4d claret and green - cat £10 (if #23) or £15 (if #23a)
#18 - KEVII - 1902 - 1s green and green - cat. £10

Isle of Man
#3 - QV - 1889 - 6d lilac and black - cat. £15
#4 - QV - 1889 - 1s green and black - cat. £10
#35 - KEVII - 1904 - 2s on 2s green and black - cat. £20
#33 - KEVII - 1904 - 6d on 6d lilac and black - cat. £20
#27 - KEVII - 1903 - 1s green and black - cat. £35

Mayor's Court
Imperf proof (?) not listed in Barefoot, but I assume it's worth a lot.

I don't have the Barefoot Commonwealth catalogue, so I can't help with the Egyptian Occupation of Gaza (Palestine), Nyasaland, British Central Africa, Swaziland, Transvaal and India revenues.

Inland Revenue
#3, #21 or #24 - QV - 1860 to 1867 - 3d lilac - cat. £1.50 (#21 or #24) or £3.50 (#3)
#2, #20 or #23 - QV - 1860 to 1867 - 1d lilac - cat. 5p (#20 or #23) or 20p (#2)
#4, #22 or #25 - QV - 1860 to 1867 - 6d lilac - cat. 75p (#22 or #25) or £5 (#4)
#1 - QV - 1860 - 1d lilac (red op.) - cat. £3.50

The difference between the 1d, 3d and 6d are the watermerks:
#2, #3 and #4 - wmk. fouled anchor
#20, #21 and #22 - wmk. 16mm anchor
#23, #24 and #25 - wmk. 18mm anchor

There were later printings of the 3d and 6d in 1880-81, but the 3d has an 1879 cancelltion and the perforation on the 6d looks like the earlier printings.

Contract Note
#28 - KEVII - 1910 - £1 lilac and red - cat. £7.50
#45 - KGV - 1917 - £1 claret and red - cat. £2.50
#67 - QEII - 1959 - £2 claret and red - cat. £5

The prices are for single stamps. I think there are premiums for pairs or blocks.

If you have any other UK or Malta revenues I'd be happy to help.

Don't know if someone has pointed this out in the interim, but the word "at the bottom" you can't read is "Palestine".
