We also noted many singles and sets in the $10 to $35 of catalogue value. This very large collection is fuller through the early period for most countries with the pages sometimes out of order. This is not a comprehensive collection in terms of having pages for all the countries in period, while a number of countries have duplicated pages, with these often rather full of potential shades and other varieties for study, etc. The majority of the pages have the owner's pencilled-in catalogue values with totals at the bottom of the pages, with many of the pages totaling between $20 and $80. The albums show some wear, however the collection within is clean. The condition of the stamps is a little mixed among the classics, otherwise the group is overall fine to very fine. Our photos provide a mere glimpse at the contents, best seen in person to appreciate. (Image)

image Mint and Used Collection in 19 Supreme/Master Global Albums, from classics to the 2000s with tens of thousands of stamps. This large collection is about an even mix of mint and used with some countries more complete than others. There is a little overlap early on in the alphabet where an extra album was later added. Included is a fair China collection with a good start on the PRC section. Our photos provide just a glimpse. Overall fine to very fine. (Image)

image Mint and Used Collection in 30 Scott International Albums, Classics to the 1990s. This large collection is comprised of used stamps in the earlier period and mint in the modern period. We noted that the collection does not have complete pages for all of the countries in period, with the pages often out of order. There is some overlap as well with accompanying light duplication. There are decent collections for a number of the countries which we come to expect, such as U.S.A., Belgium, Russia, etc. There are also decent collections among some of the less-likely countries, such as, Albania, Brazil, China, Guinea, Mexico and Turkey. A few of the pages have the owner's pencilled-in catalogue values with totals at the bottoms of the pages, with some of the pages not shown among the images having totals between $20 and $80. The albums show some wear and tear, except where there is slight moisture damage to a couple of the albums, otherwise the collection within is generally clean. Many of the stamps in black mounts are loose or have detached. A fabulous project for the intrepid worldwide collector. Overall fine or better. (Image)
