About Negev Holyland Auctions

I began collecting stamps at age 10. Though I started with US stamps, I soon added Israel as my sister lived there.

My specialization is the Postal Stationery of Israel. I also collect LUNDY ISLAND and FRANCE & COLONIES.

I started dealing in 1997. I named the business BUTTON STAMP COMPANY. Thomas Paine, the author of COMMON SENSE lived in Bordentown, NJ. This was the only place where he bought property. There is a statue of him in town. On the base is this: I would rather see my horse BUTTON grazing in the fields of Bordentown that all the pomp and show of Europe. As I joke, you now know you are dealing with the southern end of north-bound horse. Read More...
