"Most Interesting, Most Expensive May 2010"

For the month of May, I haven't been able to religiously follow the ebay. Nevertheless, I think some of the most expensive stuffs of the months have been well noted.   The cumulative value of the top 5 items this month is $ 1602.40. I personally think that the one on rank 3 deserves special mention although, unfortunately, the picture has been deleted quite early. I have been eyeing on the cover but without no luck :(

The famous Parker cover of North Borneo. The cover is philatelic in nature, but I think would make an excellent piece for exhibition.

This collection of the North Borneo Company 50th anniversary is my favourite design of all North Borneo stamps. I have several full sets of them. This is considered by many as among the most beautiful British Commonwealth stamps design. Look at a more detail description here.
