AUDREY HEPBURN 2001 / EXPONET

VIRTUAL INTERNATIONAL PHILATELIC EXHIBITION

EXHIBIT: AUDREY HEPBURN 2001

EXHIBITOR: ULRICH FELZMANN - BRIEFMARKENAUKTIONEN, GERMANY

Another piece of Germany's most desireable postwar stamps has been found during last week:
A commercially used copy of the world famous unissued charity stamp "Audrey Hepburn" of 2001.
A collector in his mid 30s living in the Rhineland area found this rarity, which is the 4th one world wide known,
among a bunch of clipped envelope corners which he had kept untouched for a couple of years.
Checking the internet, he found his way to the famous stamp auctioneer ULRICH FELZMANN
who has already auctioneered 2 pieces of this great rarity in 2005 and 2006.

The buyer in 2005 paid incredible EURO 170,000 (USD 209,000) for his corner piece.
ULRICH FELZMANN company will show this stamp legendary which the famous MICHEL catalogue quotes to be the "Blue Mauritius of Germany",
on the occasion of the Sindelfingen International Stamp Fair (Oct 26 - 28, 2007, booth 62).

The stamp is preserved still on its original envelope cut-out and goes with a clean certificate by philatelic expert Andreas Schlegel.
