Throughout H.R. Harmer’s history we have had the privilege of offering a large number of significant stamp collections at auction. From highly-specialized holdings of a single country to collections encompassing all corners of the globe, our “name sales” have long been the pride of our firm. An auction catalogue is much more than an advertisement for an upcoming sale—it is a means of preserving a collection for future generations, ensuring that one’s philatelic legacy will live on long past the dispersal of their material.

As excited as we are for future auctions, we feel it is equally important to highlight significant sales from our past—as well as the men and women behind them.
