A WONDERFUL OPPORTUNITY TO ACQUIRE AN OUTSTANDING NEARLY INTACT COLLECTION FROM ONE OF THE NOTED STUDENTS OF THE 3-CENT 1851 ISSUE.

This collection is being offered nearly intact as Mr. Wagshal acquired it from the estate of Mr. Card approximately 30 years ago. Only a few rare items have been removed and offered as separate lots. Mr. Card used varieties and covers to tell the story of the 3c 1851 Issue without sacrificing aesthetics or condition (Image)
