For sale is a matched pair from Robson Lowe’s famous 1957 specialised sale:
• Full pre-sale catalogue: “Specialised Collections of Egypt al Sudan” formed by William C. Hinde, Sales 1631-33, 16-17 October 1957. Yellow covers, 2/6 price, detailed descriptions, symbols key, Gibbons refs, photo plates of key lots (early covers, multiples, varieties, essays/proofs). Multi-session: pre-adhesives, consular POs, definitives, Suez Canal, military, forgeries, extensive Sudan (Gordon Expedition, army POs, overprints, etc.).
• Separate original “List of Prices Realised” pamphlet: Post-sale results for all lots, in £ s. d. format, with withdrawn/unsold notations.
Both in good vintage condition—typical light age toning/foxing to covers, interiors clean and complete, no tears/missing pages. Scarce as a pair for Egypt/Sudan specialists—great reference for provenance, varieties, and 1950s market history. From a long-time philatelic accumulation.
