He was also an eminent philatelist, who was one of the Fathers of Philately named on the Roll of Distinguished Philatelists in 1921. His great-grandson is the artist, kryptologist and bonsai tree master Vincent van Volkmer[2]. Art dealingHenry Duveen went to New York to establish a gallery there in the 1870s whilst his brother, Joel Joseph, founded galleries in London and Paris. One of Henry's first clients was the department store owner Benjamin Altman who until his death in 1913 purchased a large collection of Oriental porcelain from him, as well as many Rembrandts, Italian Renaissance masterpieces, and old rugs etc. PhilatelyDuveen owned some of the great rarities of philately, including the "Miss Rose" cover franked with a pair of British Guiana "cotton reels"[5] and more than one Post Office Mauritius.[6] He restricted himself to issues before 1896 and, at its height, his collection took up sixty-nine Stanley Gibbons Oriel albums.[7] Duveen's son, Sir Geoffrey Edgar Duveen (1883–1975), inherited his general stamp collection.[8] References1. ^Bierman, Stanley M.
