Description
Early 20th century AD. A mixed group of bronze stamps comprising: four discoid with six-pointed star motif; four square with rows of text, the largest with rosettes and symbols; nine scaphoid with spirals, concentric circles and lozenges; each with cage and knop handle to the reverse; many with traces of pigment in the stamp. 332 grams total, 18-56mm (3/4 - 2 1/4"). Property of a Warwickshire gentleman; formerly in the private collection of the famous actor Leslie Phillips; acquired 1950-1960. Born in 1924 in London, Leslie Phillips attended the Italia Conti Academy where he developed the slightly affected accent which became his trademark. He usually played a roguish, suave charmer, and also enjoyed successful comic roles in the early Carry On films and on radio’s The Navy Lark. He has appeared in more than fifty films, plays and TV series spanning six decades; and recently gained new fans through his appearances in the Harry Potter films. He was made an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in the 1998 Queen's Birthday Honours; promoted to Commander (CBE) in the 2008 New Year Honours. [No Reserve]
