Heritage Auctions Launches Stamps Category with Charles F. Shreve and Tracy L. Carey
Heritage Auctions is reintroducing a Stamps category, appointing Charles F. Shreve as Vice President and Tracy L. Carey as Consignment Director. This initiative marks the auction house’s renewed focus on philately since it first ventured into the field in 1980, facilitated by CEO Steve Ivy and Shreve's leadership. Carey, who has been with Heritage since 1988 and became a licensed auctioneer in 1990, will play a key role in this new effort. Notably, Heritage previously sold its Stamp division to Greg Manning Auctions, Inc., 35 years ago, highlighting the significance of this strategic move.
