I haven't seen that for U.S. stamps but would like to. Maybe I'm looking in the wrong places. However it seems there might be an increase in foreign proofs being offered.
One of my areas of collecting is Canadian Provinces and I'm surprised to see the increase, as well as in early Canadian issues.
I have a few recent Auction catalogues and see if the same shows in the US issues.
Just a general inquiry:
I've noticed in the past year or so more Proofs and Essays offered by Auction Houses. Is there an increase of interest in these particular items? I know I've no intention of going down that path, I'm just surprised to see what seems (or maybe I really didn't notice it before), the increase of these items.
