Mint and Used Collection of Vatican, 1929 to 2017, all neatly displayed in four 32-page stockbooks containing a fairly comprehensive collection, including all back of the book issues, appearing to be missing only a few early sets (#s 35-40, 41-46, C16-17, C20-21) in the period. The stamps are all mint never hinged, except for a very few stamps in the beginning. In many cases (at least up to the late 1990s), there is also a used stamp or souvenir sheet under the mint. We note many better complete NH sets such as 1-13 (c.v. $265), 19-34 ($375), 47-54 ($360), 55-60 ($200), 61-67 ($135), B1-B4 ($190), E1-E2 ($150), J1-J6 ($190), Q1-Q15 ($160), etc. Half of one of these stockbooks contains many complete sheets, sheetlets, booklets, presentation folders and other philatelic ephemera. The lot also contains a 5th stockbook containing a stock of used issues to the mid-2000s, and a box full of MNH singles and sets in 102 cards, with several cataloguing $15-$135. A very clean and overall very fine collection / stock. (Image)

Mint Vatican Collection in a Stockbook, 1929-1961, with two periods: 1929 to 1936 then 1959-1961, with most stamps never hinged, only a very few early issues are hinged. In the second period the owner bought mostly in pairs, and we note several complete sets or part sets, including better such as #s 47-53 (NH, $347), B1-B3 (NH, $155), etc. A few of the stamps have light gum toning, as this collection has been stored in its stockbook since 1961, else overall very fine. All pages scanned online. (Image)
