very urgent request

A copy of the catalogue of the City of London Philatelic Auction Mart sale of 30 March 1931

If you have a copy, or know the whereabouts of a copy, please  let me know.

The sale contained a large accumulation of Great Britain postage, revenue and telegraph stamps and also some British Levant and Cyprus, nearly all overprinted SPECIMEN.
      I will pay generously for a copy of the catalogue or alternatively will be pleased to cover the cost of photocopying a small number of pages.
      The owner of the auction house was A. W. Tyrrell and it may be that the catalogue is filed under his name.

Thank you
