VALUABLE STAMPS
A LARGE COLLECTION [by telegraph—press association] WELLINGTON, Friday A stamp collection which some Wellington philatelists think be the largest and most valuable in New Zealand has been left by Mr. E. H. S. Jackson, who died in Wellington last Sunday. . , Mr. Jackson was very retiring and apparently no other philatelist ever saw the whole of his collection. Few saw even part of it, but he was known to have spent large sums on it. All his life Mr. Jackson was interested in stamp collecting, and when he retired it became his great hobby. His trustee is unable to_ make any statement as to the constitution of the collection. He did not specialise, but was a general collector. He collected coins also.
