1900 Marshall Hole Currency Cards
A specialised collection neatly mounted and written up on twenty-one pages, thirty-six cards in total with three arranged to illustrate the various types of signature, two illustrating the ways that stamps were affixed and the remainder by card type commencing with two of the very rare initial printing with misplaced imprint and then Types I (7), II (5), III (7), IV (8) and one without cachet (believed to be one of only two examples recorded), both types of the oval handstamp and all types of stamps used up to 10/- are represented and accompanied by a mint set of the stamps; also a most unusual group of Postage stamps (7 with two 6d, pairs and other values to £1) signed by Hole, all but one used during the very short period of December 1892-January 1893 ; condition of the cards varies from poor to very fine. An exceptional collection which would be very difficult to replicate
