British Commonwealth, Mint & Used Collections, 1870-1995, Albums, stockbooks and counter books with stamps across the British Realm. Collections of Papua New Guinea (1901-75) mostly mint on Scott pages, Australia (1966-85) all mint in a hingeless Davo album, a complete collection of mint of Isle of Man (1956-84) in a hingeless Lindner, along with many others. There's a stockbook of used Bermuda, a counter book of Hong Kong with many better mint, such as #218, 219-20, 225-28, 249-50, 253-54, and the random stocksheets with some unexpected gems, like Falklands mint 60-62. Or how about an entire counter book filled with specimen overprints? Occasionally you will even come across a bit of non-British material, like a mint collection of Greenland in the back of a hingeless British Europe album with mint 10-18 & 26-27, or some nice Iceland mixed in on a stocksheet, or a complete set of Finland 38-45 with specimen overprints found in the aforementioned counter book. We have one album and five counter books for online viewing, but we still highly recommend reviewing this lot in person, overall Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 86 lbs.
