Sweden, "Cream of the Crop" Mint Collection, 1855-2011, If you've been wanting to obtain a Swedish collection but just couldn't pull the trigger, perhaps because too many key stamps were missing or the quality just wasn't there, well, the wait is over! In three Stender albums with all stamps in black mounts, a mouth-watering offering of one of the best mint collections of Sweden we have seen in some time with some exceptional centering on the early material. Just a few stray used of shade varieties, otherwise all mint and complete from 1924 onwards. Without further delay, here are just some of the better items: #LX1-2, 2, 6-12 (8 & 12 with certs), 13-16, 17, 19, 20 (also the blue-grey variety with cert (Facit #20b)), 22, 25-27, 28-36, 38, 39, 40-49, 52-65, 66, 67-73, 77-94 (yes, the 55 & 80 öre are here!), 145-63, 164-66, 194-96, 197-212, 213-28, 229, B11, B12-21, J1-11, J12-22, O1-10 (O9 with cert), O8a, O12-25, and many more, like the semi-official airmail from 1912 (Facit #HF1), inverted surcharges on the first set of airmails (C1a-3a), as well as on B26, B28 & B30. Even a couple of incorrect surcharges as footnoted in Scott, such as the 12ö+8ö on B2 (Facit #127v1) and the 7ö+3ö on B9 (Facit #134v3). Also, much of this collection is in duplicate, as complete panes also have accompanying singles/pairs, and many other extras, like both ordinary & phosphor paper, plate varieties, an excellent selection of military reply stamps, test booklets, tourist stamps, Framas, etc. Let's just say, you have to see it to believe it, and a good chunk is viewable online! generally Fine to Very Fine.

Sweden, "Härlig" 95% Used Collection, 1855-2016, In four pristine hingeless Lighthouse albums, an absolutely scrumptious smörgåsbord up for grabs here, from a long list of valuable classics to hard-to-obtain used booklet pairs and complete booklets. Get ready to be blown away from the very first page with two Stockholm locals and a more-or-less complete set of the first issue, albeit two stamps being reprints (#1p & 5q) but valuable nevertheless. Better used include #LX1-2, 2-4, 6-12, 13-16, 17-27, 28-38, 40-49, 197-212, 213-28, B11, B12-21, J8-11, J16-22, O1-11 and many more. And let me reiterate how difficult it would be to complete a collection of used booklet pairs. Many have died trying and Scott doesn't even list them, but they're here in droves and could feasibly be completed by this collection's successor. With the exception of some minor varieties, mostly Scott-unlisted, it's nearly complete up until 1994. As a bonus, an additional Lighthouse binder with complete panes, some on cover. Condition varies a bit, but on the whole Fine to Very Fine, many images available online. Shipping charges apply - weight 32 lbs. (PDF for this Lot) (Image)
