Davies Collection
The Davies Collection is a collection of Libyan revenue stamps from 1955 to 1969, formed from material from the Bradbury Wilkinson Archive, and presented to the British Library Philatelic Collections by John N. Davies in 1992.〔(Philatelic Collections: Country collections. ) British Library, 2011. Retrieved 25 July 2011.〕〔
==John N. Davies==
John Neville Davies (Born 1935) states that he began to collect stamps on 2 September 1940 when his mother paid a bill for £2 and received a receipt bearing a stamp from the British Postal Centenary set of that year which showed both Queen Victoria and King George VI. The stamp was to pay the tax on receipts then current and was therefore used as a revenue stamp.
Davies became interested in Libyan stamps while carrying out his national service in Libya〔"NEWS ... from near and far." in ''The London Philatelist'' Vol. 101, No. 1198, October 1992, p. 273.〕 between 1954 and 1956, though he bought little material at that time. From 1956 he was able to develop his collection by buying Libyan postal history and postage stamps which no-one else seemed interested in. In some cases he was able to buy almost the complete Libyan stock of dealers such as Urch Harris and Proud Bailey who had no other buyers for the material. He left the Army in 1963 and worked subsequently at the British Post Office (1967 -1986) in the Controller's Office and the National Postal Museum. In 1986 he became a curator at the British Library where he was assistant to David Beech. He retired in 1993. Davies is a former Fellow of the Royal Philatelic Society London.〔"Libyan revenues collection given to British Library." in The London Philatelist, Vol. 101, No. 1194, June 1992, p. 193.〕
