Med Treasure
Gibralter Stamp Without
Price Mark Found Valuable
Wes carefully picked up a
stamp and deposited it on a mini
ature table under a fixed
magnifying glass.
It was one of the Gibraltar
issue of November, 1889 from
a sheet or sheets made famous
through someone's failure to
have them printed with the
value of 10 centesimos the
equivalent of one penny. I look
ed at its rose or carmine color
under the glass with its severe
profile of Queen Victoria facing
to the left.
"Yes," said Wes, "I paid $250
for it back in 1932."
I said something about what
a shame it was the boy who was
sent to buy the balance of the
original sheet of 60 stamps back
in 1889 had been unable to get
them. (The stamps were discov
ered by a Gibraltar businessman
who noticed the price was miss
ing when his office boy brought
back five stamps he had been
sent to the post office to get.
The businessman immediately
sent the youngster back to buy
the balance, but within the few
minutes that had elapsed, the
CLASSIC ENGLISH URN
We stopped in front of a
crudely lettered sign stating
that used lumber, hardware and
brick were for sale.
We picked our way through
stacks of dirty boards, low piles
of brick and around the rusty
innards of an old house that
some workers had pretty nearly
taken down.
"I'm going to take a look out
back," said Ivar. Presently he
reappeared lugging a large urn.
"How much," he asked, put
ting it down in front of a grimy
,looking individual who seemed
to be in charge of sales. The lat
ter hefted it.
- "Darn," he said. "That must
be lead ... sure it is . . . Must
weigh 30 pounds . . . Well, you
can have it for $15."
.. "Fifteen bucks?" Ivar looked
as if he would blow his top.
"Why look here! Scrap lead
isn't worth more than 10 cents
a pound today."
-''But this ain't scrap. You can
put flowers in it,", replied the
other easily.
Ivar protested. .They haggled
back and forth, with the urn
TWO OLD BILLS FOUND
Cousin Agatha doesn't have
much a small house left her
by an elder brother who was
rather "peculia r," and just
enough income to keep her in
the necessities. Naturally; the
rest of us, when ever we can
find a way around her pride, try
to give her some of the little
: luxuries that a person her age
ought to have. "
Recently, when my niece
Judith and I called to give her
an old television set, we found
her quietly elated.
"Well," she said in answer
to my question why, "you would
be delighted, too, if you had just
found $15." And she went on to
tell how she had found two bills
a five and tea stuck in the
pocket of her brother Jethro's
suit which she had come across
in a trunk in the attic. '
"It was something he wore
as a young man," she remarked,

fault had been discovered and
the stamps withdrawn from
sale.)
"Well," replied Wes, "in addi
tion to the remainder of the
sheet, which was evidently sold
just the same eventually, it
seems to me distinctly likely
that even more got out."
Surprised, I asked why.
"Because I know where there's
a block of six," he answered,
"and one of these days I am
going to get them. Think of it!
With this stamp here cataloguing
at $750 today, a block of six
and there isn't another one, I'm
positive would be worth a lot
more than $4,500. . . . And you
can bet your last dollar I'm go
ing to get it, or know the reason
why.
Wes is certainly right about
the value. Blocks are almost al
ways worth more than the value
of the single stamp multiplied
by the number in them. And I
dare say he's right about getting
it, too. For not even Pizzaro
could have looked more deter
mined when he set out to take
Peru.
HAS SEAHORSE HANDLES
finally changing hands for $8.
"You must want it badly," I
said when we got in the car.
think you became too enthusias
tic and let the matter run away
with you."
Ivar grinned. "Look at those
seahorses for handles." They
were good looking seahorses, all
right. In fact they were mighty
graceful. The urn was of classic
proportions, some 22 inches high
. . . about 12 at the mouth and
narrowing gradually to four at
the stem before flaring into a
base of eight inches diameter
There was a flower design,
simple and restrained on the out
side.
"Just the same, it seems to me
the price was too high," I said
Ivar laughed. "I would have
paid the $15 if he had insisted
upon it. This is a good sample
of English garden furniture of
the 1890s. Actually, it's worth
a lot more than $15, even though
there's no clue to the maker." -
I still doubted it, but the $100
he got for it at an auction some
six months later was the defin
ite answer.
AFTER FORTY YEARS
"because it wouldn't have fit
him during the last 40 years of
his life."
Recalling that Jethro had died
in 1925 at the age of 67, I asked
to see the bills.
They were crisptnew appear
ing notes that she placed in my
hand. One was a five spot of
1896 issue, with a picture on one
side showing Electricity as the
chief force in the world, and
on the other, the portraits of
Grant and Sherman.
The $10 bill was a silver certi
ficate of 1880 issue the one
with a picture of Robert Morris
on one side and on the other
the world SILVER in big letters
spreading all across the broad
expanse of the note.
After discussing the matter
with her, I took the bills to
a numismatist. I got $42.50 for
the ten and $32 for the five.
