The Jack Gray Collection of Topicals

Jack was fi rst, last and always a story-teller - a professional writer in a number of genres: magazine articles, stage plays, radio plays, screenplays, and (unpublished) novels. He was also a lifelong collector, mainly of books and stamps, but also any kind of material related to his many enthusiasms – history, literature, theatre and music, printing and typography, humour, cooking, games and tea. Stamp collecting for him was always as much about the story as the stamp, so his collection from the beginning leaned in the direction of topics. His earliest and most enduring love was ships and all things nautical, but at the time of his death in February 2017 at the age of 89, the number of topics he was actively collecting was over 200. He was assiduous in tracking down the earliest examples of any of his topics, diligently working through the checklists of the American Topical Association as well as any other sources he could fi nd, and over the course of time assembled a very large database of fi rsts, with lots of interesting stories to go with them. He wanted to share this wealth of philatelic lore with his fellow collectors and found the perfect way by writing a book called “What’s First”, published by the ATA and released on August 9, 2018 at the ATA convention in Columbus, Ohio. He would have loved to see the end result, but the joy was in the journey.

The following 57 lots are mostly from the Jack Gray collection and contain many tens of thousands of stamps, many sorted or displayed in albums but also many in bulk unsorted envelopes, and still we noted li le duplication overall. The number of items in each topic ranges from a few (these have been grouped with others) to several thousands of items (ie. Ships). Items from Jack lo ed elsewhere in the catalogue have the “JG” designation.
