Does anyone know whether the Tomy Anka auction house in Paris still exists?
They were on the rue du Fg. Montmartre near rue Richer and used to carry wonderful stuff from the old French colonies. I can't seem to find any information about them even in the Paris Yellow Pages. Thanks in advance. -- Tony Vella, Ottawa, Canada http://tv-stamps.shorturl.com |

They were still thriving and the numbers were still good as of Oct 2003. Tomy Anka, 27 rue du Faubourg Montmartre, F-75009 Paris France Tél. :01 47 70 45 72 Fax :01 47 70 18 71 Blair |

Tomy Anka, 27 rue du Faubourg Montmartre, F-75009 Paris France Tél. :01 47 70 45 72 Fax :01 47 70 18 71 Hi Blair. I have just been advised by some of the chaps on FRP that Mr. Anka passed away several years ago and the business closed down. The location on the Fg. Montmartre (near Drouot not Richer) has been taken over by a jewellery store ATD Quart-Monde. I recall with great nostalgia the Tomy Anka auctions/sales where I bought some absolutely wonderful early French Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia which, regretfully, in a moment of weakness, I sold. I have often been tempted to start those three collections again but never actually got to do it. -- Tony Vella, Ottawa, Canada |

Possibly the address houses several businesses. Source: RATP on-line map. http://www32.ratp.info/Proxi/proxi.p...se&Profil=RATP enter "27 rue du Faubourg Montmartre" in the search and when you get the map, put the mouse on the pink square. Blair |

He has two sales a year; the last one was of over 11,500 lots, mostly France and Colonies. However, he does not make it easy - no website, no email address and, if you have bid successfully, credit cards are not accepted. The mailing address is 7, rue de Chateaudun, 75009 Paris. |
