Description: [zipedit] Australia Philatelic Exhibition PublicityThis souvenir sheet was produced in 1983 by the West Australian Stamp Promotion Council to publicize the forthcoming 1984 WAPEX National Philatelic Exhibition. The unusual souvenir was produced by taking sheets of the then current 1¢ Australian Antarctic Territory ship stamp showing the S.Y. Aurora, and blacking out all but two of the stamps in each block and with imprint of a silver swan and "W.A.S.P.C." The item was not sold but was given free with each purchase of five souvenir WAPEX sheets. Very unusual and now very scarce. Sheets are F/VF, OG, NH. Approximate Sheet Size: 78 x 86 mm. * STOCK IMAGE DUE TO RECENT NON-DELIVERY CLAIMS - EXTRA FEES FOR SHIPPING MAY BE REQUIRED FOR SOME ADDRESSES. Please inquire if you have any questions. Shipping to US addresses will be via USPS First Class Mail. Shipping to non-US addresses will be via USPS First Class Mail International. No tracking will be provided for shipments unless requested by buyer. If extra mailing services, including tracking, are desired, there is an extra charge. Buyer MUST request before making payment to ensure additional coverage. If no additional coverage is purchased shipments are made at buyer's risk and will NOT be eligible for refund for non-delivery. Any lot with tracking WILL include details of contents and value for customs purposes. After 35+ years I decided to retire from being an active Cinderella Stamp dealer. Most of my working inventory plus backup stock was sold at public auction. However, I have retained some material that I will be offering for sale. In addition, I have some "new" material that was mixed into lots I have bought for my own collections. I will be listing some of the material in my eBay store at fixed prices. I will also be offering some material at auction, either as single items or mixed lots. There will be many bargains available. There will be large and small lots, some containing similar material, some containing a random mixture, and some containing only one or a few items. The condition will be mixed, but none of the lots will be just accumulations of damaged or faulty stamps (unless specifically listed as such). Items in stockpage or larger lots may be removed and repackaged into glassines to save on shipping costs. A Note about Poster Stamps and Gum: Because many poster stamp collectors are primarily interested in the image on the stamp, the absence or presence of gum on the back is of little concern. If no mention of gum is made, then there may or may not be gum present. If you are only interested in poster stamps with original gum, please inquire before bidding. Actual condition issues (that are not apparent from the scan) WILL be described. * A Note about "Stock Images": Occasionally I will have more than one example of an item in inventory. Rather than scan each one individually, I may use the same image for multiple examples of the item. If that is the case, the item supplied will be in substantially the same, or better, condition than the image. Any such items will have the words: "STOCK IMAGE" at the end of the description.
