British Africa, Compelling Commonwealth Mint Collection, 1957-77. In ten albums (seven Scott Specialty, three Minkus); all mint less about a dozen stamps (one set each of Botswana and Uganda, plus one stamp of the Maldives, according to our review), with much never hinged; each country present is solidly filled to complete for the period, with some continuing to 1981 or 1990 (Botswana), the Maldives (in two volumes, one brand-new pages only) starts from 1906—but even here the holding is all mint; note gutter pairs, souvenir sheets, foils and shapes, overprints and surcharges throughout; oddly, no South Africa; fresh and sound throughout, Very Fine, follow the break-up of Empire, ex Winston. Estimate $1,500 - 2,000. Suggested Bid $1,500-2,000 (Image)
