Henry George Wilson

Spear’s Review

Established in 1856, Stanley Gibbons is the world’s longest established rare stamp merchant, with experts travelling the world to find stamps which are ‘often of extreme rarity and value’.

Now run by Henry George Wilson, the firm maintains the highest quality, which led to achieving Royal Warrant status in 1914, and allows it ‘to offer a lifetime guarantee on all our rare items. We are the only philatelist to offer this assurance’.

The company works with ‘pre-eminent collectors, philatelists and numismatists’ worldwide. This includes a lengthy link with the Royal Philatelic Collection, to which it supplies ‘stamps, publications and advice and assistance, when required’.
