1684

Mostly Mint Collection in a Lindner Hingeless Album, sometimes with used stamps hinged underneath the mint. Quite an impressive collection, with most stamps present, only missing the usual expensive early imperforates and some varieties. We also note some stamps with varieties, such as mint 15Aii, paper varieties of the First Cents issues, shades, perforation methods, as well as extra material such as blocks, corner blocks, stationery cut-outs, the $1 Wayzata issue, etc. Airmails complete from C6 to C19 (all mint except C15 used). The majority of the collection is mint, and there are many never hinged issues. Despite having scanned all 20 pages online (not counting the used that are tucked in behind the mint), we recommend viewing this one in person to better appreciate its valuable contents and overall nice quality. Owner's catalogue values (at bottom of each page) is for the mint and the used shown separately.

Collection of Mint and Used Stamps, and a Few Covers, all displayed on hingeless album pages filling one binder. Collection starts with mint #1 and #11A then sparsely populated until the late 1800s, then noting increased presence of mint and used, but no complete sets except for the Silver Jubilee and Coronation issues. Small inventory of New Brunswick, P.E.I. and Nova Scotia, the collection is complemented by 6 covers (FDCs, Royal Visit, and First Flight). Owner's catalogue value is $975. Faults to be expected. Clean lot overall fine to very fine. (Scan 1) (Scan 2) (Scan 3) (Scan 4) (Scan 5) (Scan 6) (Scan 7) (Scan 8) (All Scans)

Mint and Used Collection on Lindner Hingeless Pages, with a mix of mint and used throughout, first page has only a few items, rest of the collection has very good coverage of most issues, including some better such as mint C6-C11, mint C18, complete sets, etc. Obvious faults marked and not counted, the mint in this collection were counted as all hinged even though we noted a very few NH, and some of the early issues might not have gum. Noted a few small thins in some of the early issues, still overall fine or better. (Scan 1) (Scan 2) (Scan 3) (Scan 4) (Scan 5) (Scan 6) (Scan 7) (Scan 8) (Scan 9) (Scan 10) (All Scans)

11A/268

Collection of Used on Quadrille Pages, 1860 to 1943, a very clean collection, with many complete, or near complete sets, includes many extra stamps, often different shades. Noted some better stamps here and there, including airmail issues, including a very fine first flight cover, JUL.11.1933 Wabush to Katsao via Seven Islands, franked with a C14 and C16. Most of the postmarks are light (saw corks, grids and town cancels) and the overall quality is nice, including that the majority of the stamps are very fine centered. One stamp, a #19 has a 1947 R.P.S.L. certificate. Worth a close look, overall fine to very fine.

11A/270

Specialized and Extensive Mint and Used Collection in a Walsh and Winter Album, plus many additional home made pages, for a total of about 132 pages with stamps (not counting numerous articles, checklists, illustrations without stamps, etc.). The collection starts off fairly well with Pence and even better Cents issues, followed by a fairly comprehensive showing to the end (with duplication). It contains a mix of used and mint (including never hinged), complete sets, blocks, etc. The emphasis of the collection is towards re-entries or constant plate flaws, with at least 70 stamps (some in blocks), usually accompanied by a large coloured enlargement clearly showing the variety. This does not count the numerous guide lines, engraver's slips, slip prints, dots, scratches, blobs of ink, etc found throughout. There is also an extensive presence of perforation varieties, all clearly described, as well as shades, watermarks (incl. many inverted) and much more. We saw no deeply expensive items, still if you add up the countless $25 to $50 items (and many higher) it all adds up very nicely. Some faults in the early material, then becomes overall fine or better. A lifetime effort, which would be very difficult to duplicate to this extent. Our online scans only show a small portion of this collection, we strongly urge you to see it in person to better appreciate its value.

Stockbook Filled with Mint and Used Stock, including 11 black stock sheets. The material is from the Decimal era (1865-1947) and includes a little bit of everything, mostly used but with a few mint here and there.

Also includes a 2c postal card (with reply still attached) mailed in 1895 to Germany (all over toning) and 4 shipping receipts from 1946 franked with 5c Caribou issues.
