1st Aerial Mail post cover Allahbad exhibition 1911

As you know I consider this First Aerial Mail FFC from Allahabad India as BOGUS.

BOGUS means this event never happened and it's just a STORY. 

Click following link to read STORY about How India was first sending postal mail in 1911 (107+ years ago) then England or USA!!


It's just a rubber stamp.!! (very advance rubber stamp in 1911).

But in last 8 years I had seen more than 500+ sold on eBay alone.!!

Recently I saw First Aerial Mail post cover  Allahabad  exhibition 2/18/1911 sold for high price with lot of auction bids.

eBay Seller - donphil sold on Jan 10 for $486 with 16 bids.
eBay Seller treasures-usa sold on Dec 22 for $408 with 20 bids.
eBay Seller webuystamps sold on Jan 28 for $350 (193 UK pound) with 39 bids.

What do you think about price and bids ? Is it real.!!

My personal opinion about this eBay transaction is FAKE.  (you don't have to believe my opinion).

Do you think eBay got commission on this transaction ? (around $40 for each)

Do you think UK government got GST on this transaction ? (around $60-75 for each).







So what is your Opinion about this 1st Aerial Mail post cover Allahbad exhibition 1911 ?

Do you agree with my Opinion ?

First Aerial Mail from Allahabad 1911

We know how easy is it to make rubber stamp and call it as special cancellation.!!

It will be very hard to believe what happen 107+ years ago without any solid proof such as photographs of person present there and all other photos which will explain about it.

Without solid proof it is not fact but a Cinderella STORY.!!

We just have to believe in STORY written by some stamp collector turn in to philatelist (collect stamps or study stamp) about this special cancellation.

This philatelist will also work with Stamp Handbook author, newspaper journalist and blog writer and make his STORY more famous.

Recently I saw 1911 First Flight Cover Allahabad and I was surprised that it was sold for $500 by  eBay seller "territorian1" from Australia.

A rubber stamp selling for $500.!! Do you really think this was sold for $500 and GST was paid to Australian Government and all other taxes.?





I cannot do research after 107+ years on my own, like I did for 2009 Germany Gandhi special cancellation which was similar to 1911 First Aerial Mail from Allahabad. Click following link to read SCAM in special cancellation.

http://gandhistampsclub.blogspot.com/2010/01/fake-gandhi-postmark-cancel-from.html

After more research on web I found interesting article from STORY. You can read STORY for more details by clicking following.

http://peterjennings.co.uk/articles/aerialpost.pdf

But some of the interesting point in the STORY is

1) No photograph available of departure and landing of plane.
2) No photograph available for Governor Sir Hewitt who was present there as per STORY.
3) Million people watched departure of airplane in 1911 and no photograph or film.!!
4) Only one person was present at landing.(postal employee) even it was 5 miles away.!!


CAN YOU BELIEVE ANY OF THE ABOVE FOR SUCH A BIG EVENT ?




So what do you think about this STORY about First Aerial Mail from Allahabad ?

Did they really send mail before British ?

My personal opinion after reading all this I think it's BOGUS.

It's was very hard to find any information at that time so some one can make STORY and start telling story by stamp exhibition, newspaper article, museum display etc.

If there is any picture like following then we can see that 1911 First Aerial Mail from Allahabad was genuine not just STORY.

India 1911 World First Aerial Post Air Mail Allahabad - Naini

 Recently I saw India 1911 World First Aerial Post Air Mail Allahabad - Naini on piece of paper sold for $135 by eBay seller "postbag"

But if you read my previous blog post you will know that I don't think there was anything like India 1911 World First Aerial Post Air Mail Allahabad - Naini.

My personal opinion about this cancellation is BOGUS.

It never exist but created by some over smart person to just make money.


This is not new in special cancellation.

I proved that in 2009 when some famous stamp collector from Winnenden (or near by town) Germany created BOGUS special cancellation with Gandhi and Emblem of India.


Following is the rubber stamp which was selling as Special cancellation from Germany.!!

With my personal research from local stamp club & Winnenden residence this was creation of local Indian origin - Gandhi stamp collector.!!!

I was even barred from writing more about this on my other philately blogspot!!

So you know what this means.!! Everyone is involved in some or other BOGUS material whether it is First Aerial Mail from Allahabad or Nepal Indian Embassy cancellation on 1948 Gandhi stamps or all 1948 Gandhi FDC from various cities or Scinde Dawk or Gandhi SERVICE stamp.!!

It's not collection but a very BIG SCAM.!!!



Don't you think it's easy to make money by just creating rubber stamp.!!

$135 is lot of money for any Indian people even after if you take out

  • India GST
  • eBay Commission
  • India state and Income tax.

So what do you think?



I hope this will give you some idea about SPECIAL CANCELLATION.!!

It's nothing to make money and that also lot of it.!!!

It's your money so you don't have to decide on my personal opinion.!!

This is just a tip.

Thanks

Scinde Dawk 1852 stamp

Scinde Dawk was sold for $1700!! This is known as first stamp of ASIA.!!

And again it's from California by eBay seller "dm_stamps" from Sunnyvale.!!

Great for California state as they are getting lot of money as sales tax/State tax.!!Also great for IRS as they will get lot of money from Fedral Tax/Capital Gain Tax.

Also great for eBay shareholder as they are getting commission on this sale.!! ($170).


I am wondering even after 170+ years this things are available in very good condition.

Looking to Scinde Dawk quantity it looks like some one has Embosse stamp with them.!! (Just emboss it on any old paper and make money.!!

If you do Paper Forensics you will find out reality of this stamp.!!


Do you really think this all things are true.!!

What does this "true" mean?

You are going to pay money for this kind of stamps so you decide.!!

Thanks

Alternative Asset Investment Portfolio - Scinde Dawk stamp RPSL - Alternative investment in stamps.

Recently I read article about Alternative investment and I am surprised that author is writing truth about stamp collection.

You don't see truth in stamp collection whether it's a stamp or first day cover or philatelic cover. Everything is FAKE including reporting about stamps.

Some times author (newspaper) don't know anything about stamps and he/she will write whatever stamp collector(cheater) will tell story about stamp.

Some time author will write what he read about stamp without actually thinking whether it's make sense.  Not sure why they even write about stamp collection (as no one collects stamps or even interested in stamps)

Here Patrick is writng about Alternative investment in stamps which are not even selling for 6 pounds where as catalog value is 175 pounds.

So even CATALOG for stamps are useless.!! If they write lower or less value no one is going to buy there catalog.!! Not sure why they are still printing it.!!




https://www.theguardian.com/money/2013/apr/13/stamp-collectors-catalogues-philately-clubs


Recently I saw Scinde Dawk stamp is for sale on by eBay seller "stampscurrency"  from Pleasanton California.!!

Looks like California is the seller market for Indian stamps specially Gandhi stamps, Scinde Dawk stamps and other Indian stamps.!!

It is for sale for $7500 or Make Offer.!!

As my previous blog spot I wrote my opinion that this stamp might not exist.!! (you don't have to believe my opinion.!!).

But yes there is a RPSL certificate.!! (Do this Expert Certificate has value.!!, They are like me and you.!!)

Even they have to change name from Royal Philatelic Society limited to RPSL.

To me it likes UK Royal also don't want to associate there name with them.!!




Now Scinde Dawk with $7500 value RPSL certificate has only one signature where as 75$ value India stamp has 5 signatures.





Don't you think older stamps (170 years) needs more expert signatures.!!

So according to me there is no value in stamps as Alternative Investment.!!

It is all marketing effort by stamp creator who will be also stamp exhibitor and who also will be author in newsletter or blog or stamp forum and work with portfolio manager to sell his creation.!!!

So Beware.!!

Recently I read American Football player lost 9 million dollar in Alternate investment.!! 

He did not invest in stamps.!!

He invested in Jewelry which has some value.!! (it's GOLD not piece of paper.!!)


https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/11/saints-qb-drew-brees-
lost-9-million-to-what-he-calls-a-scam.html
So BEWARE when you invest in Piece of Paper.!!

SCINDE DAWK - Alternative investment in stamps collection.

Scinde Dawk stamp issued in 1852 sold for $6210 by eBay seller "pristinephilatelics" from Sunnyvale, California.

After looking this transaction some question come up in my mind.

  • Is this genuine stamp ? (170 year old stamp with some regular eBay seller).
  • Is Expert Certificate has any value ? (Any one can become expert and gave their opinion).
  • Is eBay shareholders are benefit from this kind of transaction by getting commission on this transaction ? (it will be about $400 -$600).
  • Is California State Tax is paid on this transaction ?
  • Is US Treasury (Federal Tax) is getting any money from this transaction as Capital Gain Tax ?

So what do you think ?

Is it genuine transaction on eBay by seller full fill all his obligation ?






My EXPERT Certification for this transaction is  SUSPICIOUS. ( You don't have to believe in me.!!) It's my opinion and anyone can give their opinion like EXPERT do.!!

Why SUSPICIOUS 
  • Only eBay will know whether this was genuine transaction if they get paid or not. Buyer just bid and don't pay to seller and seller file claim for non payment and have not to paid any commission. And we all think it was really sold for $6200. 
  • Expert Certificate can be given by anyone.!! ( I can print one and give it to you!!). As it don't requirement to pass any government exam or there is no license # from government. Read more here about Expertising.  http://uspaexpertising.blogspot.com/ 
  • Scinde Dawk stamp might not exist at all. It might be FAKE created by some one and by marketing through handbook, stamp exhibition, fake auction etc as we don't know what actually happen 170 years ago.!! 

Did US government got any capital gain tax or Federal tax or California government got any state tax ?

Did eBAY shareholder benefit from this transaction by getting commission?

To me by showing this kind of value this is a SCAM to divert rich people from Middle East, China and other rich countries as ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENT.!!

But they don't know what they are getting.!!

A piece of paper.!!

It's your money so spend it wisely. Don't think STAMPS collection or Philatelic collection as Alternate Investment.

There are lot investment banker who will get you in STAMPS collection or Philatelic collection as Alternate Investment because they get lot of commission.!!

BEWARE when you even think about STAMPS COLLECTION.

Thanks
