ISRAEL 2008

INTERNATIONAL EXHIBITION

REVENUE CLASS RESULTS


 
 

Israeli Revenues by Darryl Fuller, Australia – 77 Large Silver (An interesting exhibit on a subject seldom seen.  Well worth further development)

Revenues of Albania to 1944 by Vasil Xhitoni, Albania – 76 Large Silver (Good material, but desperately needing more information on the material shown)

Queensland Revenue Stamps by Ian McMahon, Australia – 72 Silver (A very basic collection covering far too wide an area with few highlights)

Western China 1920-1940: A Study of Local fiscal issues by Cai Zhengjun, China – 93 Gold (In depth study of the local issues with much fine material)

Evolution of the Chinese Tax System by Vincent Ong, Singapore – 92 Gold (A very wide coverage [1600 to 1988] and thus loses on treatment)

Cyprus Revenue Stamps of Ottoman to King George V by Chris Podger, Great Britain – 95 Large Gold + Special Prize for Material (Completely redone with some exceptional material, exhibitor to be congratulated)

The Rouletted Revenue Stamps of Finland by Jussi Touri, Finland – 96 Large Gold + Special Prize for material (Superb material – an outstanding exhibit)

Calcutta Court of Small Causes 1869-1875 by Rajan Jayakar, India – 82 Vermeil (Nearly all stamps are used, and with a concentration on minor varieties.  Proofs, specimens and usage need expanding)

Revenues of Nepal by Pradhan Kedar, Nepal – 81 Vermeil (Needs more material of a scarcer nature.  Well worth developing further)

The Use of Mobile Revenue Stamps in the Charles 1st Reign [Romania], by Francisc Ambrus – 92 Gold (An in-depth treatment of a difficult subject.  Tax rates are fully described)

Venezuela First ‘Escuelas’ 1871-1878 by Knut Heister, Germany – 92 Gold + Felicitations for research (Brilliant research clearly demonstrated.  Needs attention to treatment, but a very fine exhibit)

Comments above have been made by Francis Kiddle and are his personal views. General comment is that more study is needed on tax rates and usages. Where these were given and explained, the exhibitor was rewarded. Francis Kiddle
