 1868 15c
Large Queen Collection, of 54 used stamps, collected for varieties, shades, papers and cancellations. We note three thick paper stamps (one with 1987 APS certificate, all with thins) and a number of other papers, a very good selection of
different shades including some better, as well as many good postmarks such as dated town cancels, corks, duplex, two Ottawa Crown cancels (one with an additional plate inscription at bottom of stamp), rollers, etc. Catalogued as two thick papers
plus 52 regular stamps, unchecked by us as per perforations, papers or listed better shades, so a careful examination should reveal a much higher catalogue value. We counted only 6 stamps with readily visible small faults, rest are overall fine to
very fine. A great lot for the specialist. (Scan a)
