Scarce Exhibition Labels

How do you find this stuff ?
I am always looking to add something different to the British Exhibition collection, but it's hard to find and I rarely see anything. I have a few odd pieces but nothing like your Nicklin material.

Guess I'll have to keep searchin'......

Amazing.

...and I'm still gonna book that flight !

Ok fly into New Orleans and rent a 15 year old pickup truck so you fit in !! Confederate flag in the bed of the truck is optional !

As far as I remember, I posted this scan before (proudly, in my collection) ...







Cheers

mac, if you ever decided one day to offer these mock ups for sale one day and with the permission of LB, I would like to have a chunk of this cake!

I'm starving!

You could consider early 1900's New Zealand Stamp Exhibition material - its is not too hard to find.

There is some info here to start you off.

Here's the 1981 - 75th Anniversary mini-sheet representing the 1906 Christchurch Exhibition labels

Greetings All,

This is my first post on this site, and I am writing to ask about a few letters I recently found in an estate lot at a local auction. I feel they may pertain to the topic here, and wanted to get some feedback about what they are, and if anyone might be interested before they go on ebay. I have done a little research on Mr. Nicklin and have found this site to be the most useful source of information.
That said, both envelopes are still sealed and feel as if there's a letter inside. They are also cancelled on the back several times with the text "Lundy 30 APR 56 JUBILEE YEAR" while the fronts are postmarked "BRAUNTON 615 AM 30 APR 56 DEVON"
Any help anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. Also, should I open the envelopes and check the contents, or would I be hurt the value?
Regards,
Tom

Tom,

Any chance of bigger pics ?
