ERA Justin supports the William Carlos
Williams Stamp
and the Rutherford Public
Library
Rutherford, NJ. "A timely donation by ERA Justin Realty,
helped produce the popular William Carlos Williams - Rutherford Stamp Commemorative," stated
Realtor Kristen Davis.
The agency’s donation provided critical
underwriting for the printing and production of the collectable First Day Covers
and their ceremonial materials. Because the donation came early in the process,
it allowed more people to enjoy the commemorative First Day Cover sale and thus
have more money donated to the Rutherford Public Library. ERA Justin Realty’s
donation will now be fully applied to support the library.
On Saturday April 21st the First Day
of Sale ceremony of the William Carlos Williams Stamp was an outstanding
success. Two limited edition First Day Covers, specific to Rutherford, were sold
to benefit the Rutherford Library. The new stamp’s unveiling and the
commemorative sale was hosted on the steps of the Rutherford Post Office. It was
both a philatelic occasion and a historic first for the Borough of
Rutherford.
Billy Neumann, Rutherford historian and the
commemorative’s producer, explained how the donation came about when he was
contacted by ERA Justin’s Broker, Ron Darby.
“Ron understood that proceeds from the sale of the commemorative covers
would go to support the Rutherford Public Library. He was so enthused that he
wanted to immediately buy 50 covers! When I explained there would be a limit to
how many each person could buy, he generously agreed to fund the production of
the First Day Covers so more could be made for sale.”
It turned out to be a very important donation.
The popularity of the collectable was so great that the Rutherford Post Office
actually ran out of stamps during Saturday’s First Day of Sale. But having the
additional commemorative covers allowed them to remain on sale. Collectors
continued to purchase the First Day Covers by themselves with the expectation of
applying the stamps and cancellations later on.
The sale of the William Carlos Williams -
Rutherford Stamp Commemorative will continue to be available until June
21st or until the limited supply of First Day Covers is exhausted.
Any collectors seeking to purchase the commemorative should immediately contact
William Neumann Photography at 201 939-0370 or fotogbill@aol.com or visit the William Carlos Williams Stamp Face
Book Page. For donation information contact Ron Darby, Broker at ERA Justin
Realty Co. 118 Jackson Ave Rutherford, NJ 07070 (201) 939-7500.
Proceeds from all sales up till the end will
continue to be applied to support the Rutherford Public Library..
