About H. R Harmer, Inc.
Now as a member of Escala Group, H.R. Harmer is now under the respected
leadership of George Eveleth and Lawrence Gibson who together have over fifty
years of experience in the philatelic auction business. The historic firm of
H.R. Harmer was founded in 1918 by Henry Revell Harmer of London. In 1940, the
firm opened its New York auction gallery and quickly ascended to the top ranks
of philatelic auction houses in the United States.
Henry R. Harmer, a signatory of the exclusive "Roll of Distinguished
Philatelists," founded the company that bears his name in England in 1918.
In 1940, the Harmer firm opened its New York auction gallery and quickly
ascended to the top ranks of philatelic auction houses in the United States.
In 1946, H.R. Harmer Inc.of New York was selected to sell the late President
Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s stamp collection. This represented one of the first
of many important landmark auctions to be conducted by the firm. Over the next
58 years, the firm was chosen again and again to sell many of the finest stamp
collections ever formed, including the most valuable philatelic collection sold
at any U.S. auction -- the famed Louise Boyd Dale and Alfred F. Lichtenstein
collections -- through a series of 25 sales beginning in 1968 and ending in May
of 2004. In October of 2004, the firm began its series of the Edward M. Gilbert
collections, which are also very impressive with a total presale estimate to
exceed $20,000,000.
Other important collections sold through H.R. Harmer include those formed by
Alfred H. Caspary, William Moody, Sir Henry Tucker, Maurice Burrus Hawaii, Adolphe
Menjou, Sandra Ilene West, Paul Beaver, Caesar Cone, Consul Weinberger, Erwin
Griswold, Sidney Hessel, Arther Hetherington, Richard Canman, Sigmund Adler and
Dr. James A. Matejka. Harmer's has also offered many valuable properties
including the Princeton University Block of Four of the Inverted U.S. 24¢
Airpost, the Charnley and Whelan Find.
