accumulations and balance lots of stamps and covers. There are lots with

We will continue to incorporate live auction bidding during the sale. Our
March sale was well received by Live Internet Bidders with more and more
buyers participating live online with every auction.
Traditionally the ABC sales have been mail auctions including mail, phone,
fax, walk-up and internet bidding off our website. We will continue to
include all those methods plus a live component that will allow bidders to
bid live online on all the lots in the sale.
All lots will be sold on May 29th. The LIVE INTERNET session will begin at

Any bidder who is interested in participating in the live internet auction
process will need to go to www.stampauctionnetwork.com and click on the ABC
Auction listing in the index and register as a prospective internet bidder
prior to the closing date of the sale. You will be given and bidder number

We are excited about the live internet bidding component to our sales. It
