1 8 RASDALE STAMP COMPANY Welcome to the Second Session of the 437th Public Auction Please Note: Pre-Auction Bidding has been changed to 5:00 from 6:00 (CDT). As always we encourage you to use our digital platform using the Rasdale Live Auction feature. For more information and a 10 minute tutorial on how to use the feature, please contact Kim at These two sentences were the last two from the 436th Public Auction catalog. I place them at the beginning of this catalog because Rasdale Stamp Company, founded in 1932, the oldest family operated stamp auction house in the United States will now become the youngest using an all digital platform. In other words, starting with the February 2019 auction we will no longer be printing a catalog. We freely admit this change will have an immediate impact on a segment of our customers. To those customers we offer two ideas. First, contact a family member, friend, anybody you know with access to a computer, laptop, tablet or smart phone. Second, go to your local library and use the computer lab there. Most libraries today offer a myriad of services and most are free. The time needed to search, copy, print both the lot description and bid sheet takes just a few minutes. You can then send a copy of your bid sheet by mail. Finally, we recommend that you send us your address to receive all the information you will need to participate in our Public Auctions starting in For more information about this revolutionary change go to our website as we have limited space on this page. Pre-Auction Bidding: Bids will be accepted by mail, fax, , or phone until 6:00 p.m., (CDT) Friday, August 17th. Rasdale Live Auction Bidding: Rasdale Live Auction Bidding takes place at 9:00 a.m. (CDT) on Saturday, August 18th for Session One and Sunday August 19th for Session Two.
