Caribbean, Mint & Used Collections of Cuba & Dominican Republic, 1855-2009, Five binders total, but if you had to pick one, it would be a bulging Scott Specialty album housing exhaustive collections of both Cuba (1855-1975) and the Dominican Republic (1870-1974). This particular volume is mostly mint with stamps both hinged and in mounts; numerous imperforates can be found for both countries, as well as covers interspersed throughout. Cuba begins with an excellent offering of classics, from Queen Isabella on through the numerous King Adolfo issues. Even here you will find imperfs, as well as higher value items not placed in use, like #71, 89, 95. In addition, many blocks, gutter pairs and postal stationery. Other better items include mint 239a (inverted center), 261, 264-73, 340-54, 652a-62a, C16-17, C31, C32 (inscription block of 14), C49a, C49b, C50a, C50b, C75-78, C120-21, C126a, C136-46, C211, E1, J1, and used 130a (bisect on piece), C17, E1. As for the Dominican Republic, a lot of premium material here too, such as used 321-22, and mint 88-95, 100-10A, 144a-50a (center inverted), 120-41, 326-28, 407, and a number of items merely footnoted in Scott, for example, souvenir sheets of 479-83 (perf & imperf) and a larger sheet of C86a in folder. As a bonus, a ton of more Cuba with a nearly complete collection from 1960-2009; this 3-volume set from Mystic is mostly mint until the mid-90's, then entirely CTOs. There's also a separate binder with telegraph stamps, revenues, FDCs and numerous TB seals. And despite the comprehensiveness of this collection, there is still room for expansion! overall Fine to Very Fine, scans & video flips accessible online, ex Csolkovits.
