Doug Spencer replied to the topic Max Stern name still trading…. in the forum PPS Members Forum 10 months, 2 weeks ago
Mr Stern and I had many conversations over the years.
After his passing, the business was continued by his son-in-law, Sam Seigal.
Absolutely top person to deal with, and he often still has items from the old days that many other dealers do not.
Nice to hear from you, Sherro. -

It was great to see all the covers in the current Journal and one TAX stamp I had not previously sighted – Bill Gammage’s 3d bluish-green and black.
Hopefuy Bill can provide me with a better quality scan, please.
Doug.
