British Commonwealth, "Britannia Rules the Page!" Mighty Mint & Used Collections, 1797-1992, Four Scott Specialty albums encompassing most of the British Realm; a mix of mint & used with some covers interspersed for good measure. The Motherland, Great Britain (1840-1979) itself, is by far the strongest, and this is hammered home from the very beginning with four copies of #1. But it doesn't let up there with continued strong classics, such as used 2, 5-7, 24, 26, 27-28, 33 (nearly complete plate #'s), 34, 37-42, 45, 48, 49-57, 59-60, 61-62, 64, 69-70, 78-87, 94-95, 96, 98-107, 108-09, 111-22, 126, 127-41, 173-75, 179-81, 222-24, and mint 111-19, 126, 137-38, 180-81. There's also a secondary collection with another #1, 55, 57 and more, as well as some stampless covers. The other albums cover Asia, America, British Europe and the Pacific with fine collections of Aden (1937-59), Australia (1913-55), Bahrain (1933-76), Bermuda (1865-1949), Burma (1937-74), Canada (1859-1956), Ceylon (1857-1972), Hong Kong (1862-1992), Jamaica (1860-1953), New Zealand (1882-1956), and others. Here are just some of the better sets & singles you will encounter: Aden mint 16-27, Aden (Kathiri State of Seiyun) mint 20-27, Australia used 166-79, Bahrain used 12-14, 38-51, and mint 32-36, Bangkok used 6, 14, 17-19, and mint 14, 17, Barbados mint 216-27, Bermuda mint 51, Burma used 32, and mint 33, Canada used 14-15, 17-18, 21-30, 41-47, 57-61, 89-95, 99-102, 177, and mint 55-57, 71-72, 101-02, Cayman Islands mint 122-34, Dominica mint 122-36, Falkland Islands mint 107-19, North Borneo mint 244-58, Turks & Caicos mint 105-17, etc. In addition, five stockbooks with thousands more of mostly used duplicates.
