Important Added Info: Note that we know this herald to be from a re-issue because of the taglines at the bottom of the cover. We think it is likely from a 1930s re-release (the overprinted date correlates to 1930), but we can't be certain. Please do not bid on this herald unless you can accept this uncertainty. Note that this is from a wonderful collection of heralds we were consigned. We auctioned the first 30 from this collection (the very best ones) in our April 2024 Major Auction. We will auction more from this collection every four weeks until they are all sold, and this time there are 42 different ones (all are in separate auctions), and they include many that we have either never before auctioned or only auctioned once or twice before.. The collection only included one of each herald, so on the rare ones, it may be quite some time before we offer the same title again! Condition: very good to fine. Learn More about condition grades
