You'll find many mint sets from postal services around the world, like U.S., Canada, Britain, Ireland, Finland, NZ, India, a very pretty collection of British Commonwealth gutter pairs mounted on pages, many full and partial sheets of Italy, Japan, Korea, Liberia, Monaco, Poland, Russia, Ryukyu including Christmas Seals, a homemade collection of Belgian Congo stamps & covers annotated on pages, numerous souvenir cards, four boxes of "102" cards with excellent used French stock until 2014, used Canada up until 2000 and extensive Austria and Ireland, an approval book with many 100's of mostly mint French Colonies, a mint/used collection of Hong Kong 1946-86, U.N.

Worldwide, "The Whole Schmear" Trilogy, Part I. Stamps are like a box of chocolate, you never know… well, you know the rest. And this lot illustrates that perfectly with everything but the kitchen sink. Rummaging through the 20-odd boxes, I encountered what must be many tens of thousands of stamps in albums or on loose pages, a few thousand glassines, envelopes organized by country, stamps on paper in large Ziploc bags, numerous stockbooks and stocksheets, cigar boxes, shoeboxes… whatever it was, it was crammed with stamps from all over. A lot of U.S. with hundreds of covers, some first flight and many FDCs, postal stationery and picture postcards, early bundle-stock, a few annual mint sets as issued by the U.S. Postal Service, an entire box filled with folios from the Postal Commemorative Society, etc. There's a glassine file of classic France by cat number, stacks of CTO blocks and sheets from the Trucial States, mint sheet folders with full and partial sheets from Argentina, Brazil, Russia, Greece and around 50 from Egypt alone, a couple stockbooks filled with thematics, a huge stack of Brazilian new issue announcements with FDC cancels, French Colonies on pages, a box with thousands on paper, mostly earlier 20th century Turkey, an Israeli mint collection with tabs in a hingeless SAFE album and a file of inscription corner blocks, Soviet commemorative folders, stocksheets filled with mint/used Belgium, Germany, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, Russia, Spain, U.N., Vatican and tons more. The most exciting part is what I alluded to earlier; you never know what you might come across and in the short time of examining this lot, here are some of the more eclectic items encountered… a packet of Austrian revenues, full panes of Danish Christmas seals, an envelope with seven hunting licenses with federal and state ducks, six retired APS circuit books from the 1970s, a number of Cinderella blocks from the 1933 WIPA exhibition, even some full sheets of Württemberg. Even more specifically, I saw Belgium #B178 & B662a, Alexandretta C1-8 used, Gibraltar 132-45 mint, Andorra (Spanish Administration) 1-12 as listed in Sanabria, Telegraph stamps from Tangier 35-46 as listed in Edifil, U.S. C18 on cover, and other goodies. Viewing is not only helpful but mandatory! Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 275 lbs. (Image)

Worldwide, "The Whole Schmear" Trilogy, Part II. You won't find a C3a in this lot either, but there is plenty of worthwhile material here, whether for the reseller or for the collector getting ready for the long winter. Similar to Part I, we have about 10 albums, over 30 stockbooks, numerous cigar boxes and thousands of glassines. Some of the albums are high-end, like a SAFE hingeless in pristine condition with a mint Faroes collection, a U.S. mint collection (1940-75) on hingeless Lighthouse pages and others. There's even an impressive 2-volume homemade Worldwide collection on the topic of Christianity (Churches, Madonnas, Christmas, Martyrs, Missionaries, etc.). A few of the 30-odd boxes border on psychotic ranging from everything from S&H Green Stamp Booklets and Yugoslavian bundleware to some very nice stock of France & Colonies. Among the varied material you will find is stockbooks filled with mint/used Portugal, Russia, Turkey, one with mint Cyprus, some very useful Switzerland, a cigar box loaded with Australia, another with Korea, a folder of Grenada full sheets, 100's of worldwide souvenir sheets, stacks of Canadian FDCs, a nearly complete collection of mint Victory & Peace Issues on White Ace pages, old Danish circuit books filled with classic Italy, bags of stamps on paper, U.N. inscription blocks & FDCs, abundant U.S. postal stationery, a box filled with 1000's from the Middle East organized by country and counter book pages scattered throughout with better material. And this lot, like the previous, is largely unchecked, but I did manage to spot the following - Mint Belgium #B106, France B157a, NZ 165-70, Egypt 172-76, C5-25, a nice selection of mint/used Soviet Tax Stamps as listed in Michel under Gebührenmarken, and a stockbook of imperf New Caledonia and Wallis & Futuna Islands, including some proofs. So grab a shovel, because "there's gold in them thar hills!", Fine to Very Fine. (Image)

Worldwide, Mint & Used Accumulation, 1819-1979. With this lot, you get a bit of this, and that, and of course, the other too! Despite being worldwide, there is a sizeable chunk of U.S. here mostly in the form of covers, over 350 of them, with stampless covers dating back to 1819, many of them transatlantic, some from World's Fairs and Expos, most notably St. Louis from 1904 and the Jamestown Exposition from 1907. You'll also find many FDCs, picture postcards, postal stationery, first flights, and more. There's also a stockbook with a neatly arranged used collection from 1925-77 and a box of duplicates with a lot of precancelled. Another country dominating this collection is Switzerland; over 250 with the usual mix of postal stationery and picture postcards, but also stampless, Soldatenpost, Balloonpost, revenues on documents and more. In addition, we have 8 retired circuit books with over $3000 in catalogue still remaining; #200-03 mint, 200a-03a mint, B7-9 used and B206 MNH to name just a few. For the rest of the world, there's a stockbook of Liechtenstein Framas along with worldwide souvenir sheets, a small album with 100's of mint/used hinged on pages, a stockbook of Iraq and one on British Africa, five old circuit books with a boatload of used, packets of older stamps, around 90 Russian covers from the WWI era and around 400 more worldwide featuring a half-dozen Spanish Graf Zeppelin covers and a 1917 first flight from Torino to Rome with Italy C1.

Worldwide, Mint & Used Accumulation, 1852-1990. Around 15 stockbooks with much mint/used Great Britain, Italy, Latin America, Mongolia, U.S., French Colonies, Yugoslavia, among others, and 10 or so albums. A Mexican collection mounted in a Minkus album, exceptionally strong in the modern era with a nearly complete mint run from 1956-90 and with many added blocks. Two Scott albums covering British North America, Caribbean and the South Atlantic, as well as some binders with stamps on pages including excellent representation across the Commonwealth. There are also a few U.S. collections in Scott albums up to the 1960s with some better items like mint #C4-6, C18 and used C1-2, E1, E3. One of the albums appeared fairly empty, but upon closer examination I saw a number of ducks, mint RW11, RW12 NH, RW13, and used RW4, RW5, RW7 and out of nowhere, a couple of Shanghai overprints, one of them K16 NH! Oddly enough, some of the best material I discovered among the 100's of glassines stuffed in bags, U.S. mint 232-33, 287-89 and used 76, 78, 116, a nice selection of Bank Notes, duplicates of the Columbians up to 30¢ and Trans-Mississippi issue up to 10¢, extensive Washington/Franklins and tons more. A few more odds 'n ends like mint sheet folders with mostly full and partial sheets of Argentina, bunches of U.S. plate blocks and an excellent selection of mint/used Roman States hinged on pages and in stocksheets, but closer examination is recommended, Fine to Very Fine.

Some of it is chaotic but other parts are quite orderly, like four stockbooks of mint/used Philippines, an entire box filled with philatelic panels, and a binder of Marshall Islands loaded with mini-sheets and blocks.

Worldwide, High-End Airmail Stock with Extra Goodies, 1847-1975. An eclectic inventory of several thousand stamps in three long glassine boxes, mainly mint with some better used sets and singles, all on display cards with Scott numbers, priced and ready to sell without additional work, perfect for online or show sales. The Airmail worldwide section alone is priced out at over $45,000, and this doesn't include the US Airmails or stock beginning with a used #1. This is not your ordinary stock as its value is built up on mainly mint sets and singles valued at $50 and up each, with special sections of items priced over $20, $50, $100 and $300 per item. The US is mixed and was not counted in our total but has better items including some mint Columbians up to the 50¢, mint Pan-Americans and more with a nice airmail section with C1/C6 and a mint 65¢ Zeppelin. While the strength is in the comprehensive worldwide Airmails there are other better stamps such as a mint Canada Bluenose Scott 158, a used China Scott 24, Denmark Scott 82 used block, Airmails including German Zepps, Canada C2 plus more, Newfoundland, Israel C1-C6 tabs, Denmark C1-C6, France C1-C2, French Colonies, Liechtenstein C1-C6 plus three sets of C15-C16, Russia C15-C19, Italy three Soccer sets and C42-C47, San Marino C11-C16, Eritrea CB1-CB6, Italian Colonies, Uruguay C93-C109. All noted are mint unless qualified as used. Rarely do we find such a massive holding of Airmails with a fair amount of never hinged and some used: one small section of sets and singles on display cards, 33 in total, had a value of $10,766 or $326 per card. Certainly this was exceptional in value but there are many other sections of high value as noted. Condition is a bit mixed with some gum issues and mainly in the uncatalogued US some are misidentified and uncounted. On balance a great stock with excellent profit potential and estimated at a conservative level to realize its maximum value, the vast majority F.-V.F. Shipping charges apply - weight 12 lbs. (Image)

Worldwide, Whopping All-Mint 52-volume Scott Internationals, 1940-2011. Yet another case where the collection simply doesn't match the albums. This set of Scott Internationals is literally on its last legs, the older volumes well worn, and for good reason; each volume is bursting at the seams with thousands upon thousands of stamps, an all-mint collection neatly displayed in black mounts. The collector didn't stop there and inserted many homemade pages for variants, souvenir sheets and booklets. Speaking of souvenir sheets, the collector had an affinity for them and there are scores throughout including much better items, such as Belgium #B458a, B482a, Germany 664a, 5NB8a+b, 8NB4a, 10NB11, Japan 423, 453a, 463a, 517a, 519a, 521a, B11, Liechtenstein 238, Netherlands 144a-45a, Switzerland B119, B130-31, B143, B178, Turkey 1054a and oodles more. And for single stamps and sets, there are so many better items, I'm not sure even where to start, but here's a sampling… Austria #390-423/428-31, 500-15, Bahamas 132-47, BAT 1-15, Cambodia 53-58, Canada 249-62, 268-73, O1-11, O16-27, Comoros 39, C1-4, Egypt 299-316, Germany 665-69, 670-85, B310-13, B314-15, B316-17, B318-19, B320-23, B327-30, 9N1-20, 9N35-41, 9N42-60, 9N68, DDR 82-84, Hungary CB13-14, Hong Kong 239-44, 249-50, 253-54, Japan 479, 609, Luxembourg 318-20, Mozambique 332-55, New Zealand 288-301, Saar 226, B69-73, B76, C12, Sudan 79-94, Vatican 149-53, C22-23 and that's just to name a few!

Worldwide, Modern Day Mostly Mint Collection, 2001-16. Hats off to all those who collect from the current millennium. With the increasing deluge of stamps released around the world, it's a challenge to keep up, but along comes this collection of many thousands of stamps hinged in a 14-volume set of Scott Internationals with tons of additional pages added for souvenir sheets, booklets and Framas. Many countries are very nearly complete, most to 2016, such as the United States, Andorra (both French & Spanish Administration), B.A.T., Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Christmas Island, Cocos Islands, Czech Republic, Cyprus, Denmark with Faroes, Fiji, Finland with Åland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Israel with tabs, Italy, Korea, Kosovo, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand with Ross Dependency, Norway, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, PRC, San Marino, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Tokelau, UN (all 3 offices until 2012) and Vatican City. Two countries, Great Britain and Japan, are mostly used but very filled collections. Many other countries have shorter spans of mint runs, such as Brazil, Colombia, Egypt, Jamaica, Peru, Singapore, Uruguay, among others, which all add up to both massive face and catalogue value. A welcome addition to any collector wishing to get up-to-date, Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 156 lbs. (Image)

Worldwide, Mint & Used Collection from A-Z in Scott Internationals Up to 1999. We've all seen it before, a massive multi-volume set of Scott Internationals, only to be disappointed when opening it up by seeing scores of empty pages and just a scattering of stamps throughout. Not the case here! This set comprised of 27 volumes has not only thousands upon thousands of stamps, there are many better sets and singles throughout the collection. You probably will not find many over the $100 threshold, but even with just a quick examination, I found a very large amount in the $30-60 range. Most countries are well represented, some even into the 1990s, and are generally a mix of mint and used with, after numerous spot-checking, the majority of stamps in mounts appear to be never-hinged. Although there is no shortage of stamps in any geographical area, whether it be Europe, South America or Asia, the strength of the collection seems to lie in the British Commonwealth. A sampling of online images is provided to give you a better picture of the value and scale of this collection, Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 178 lbs. (Image)

Worldwide, Collections of Belgium, Greece, Mexico, etc., to 2000. The one thing the countries have in common is that they were all collected by someone who paid meticulous attention to the scope and presentation of his collections; housed in 3-ring binders and beautifully mounted on homemade pages, they each cover the 1960-2000 timeframe and go way beyond completeness; Belgium includes phosphor varieties, coil strips of 5 (numbered) and strips of 6 (unnumbered), complete booklets, precancels, some blackprints, and Back-of-the-Book such as Military and Parcel Post stamps; Mexico goes into even greater detail with phosphor/fluorescent types and color, paper, watermark, gum and perforation varieties, many of which are not listed in Scott; Greece was also a joy to thumb through with about 30 booklets included; as an added bonus, we also include from the same collector two collections mounted in White Ace albums: Vatican City (1929-2000) complete, with the exception of the 1934 Provisionals, but with numerous gutter pairs, booklets and inscription blocks (stamps appear to be hinged early on but never hinged from the early 1960s onwards; and Ryukyu Islands (1948-72) never hinged, complete sans #17, and also includes both the first and second printing of the First Issue; in addition, the collector made pages for a complete never hinged collection of Riau Archipelago (Scott-listed under Indonesia) which brings additional high catalogue value; and last but not least there is a complete never hinged collection of Tokelau (1948-2000) in a spotless, like-new hingeless Kabe album, Fine to Very Fine with much better.

Worldwide, "The Kit and Kaboodle" Collection, 1855-2000. Not sure if you can have a kaboodle without a kit, but it best describes this lot, which contains ten albums, mostly older with a 1901 edition of Scott International, which has a decent amount of classics (what else?!) and a number of homemade albums with stamps hinged on White Ace pages. Australia (1945-2000) is a nearly complete mint/used collection in three binders and entirely mint after 1972. With numerous souvenir sheets, mini-sheets and some booklets, there is some serious face value here. Along with Australia, you will also find mint collections of A.A.T. (1973-98), Christmas Island (1993-98) and Cocos Islands (1969-98) along with a good selection of used States on pages. The same goes for New Zealand (1935-90), an almost complete collection of which there are many mint before 1973, but only mint thereafter. Great Britain (1965-2000) too looks as if it may be complete and is entirely mint. Among other odds 'n ends is an entire box filled with worldwide album pages and stocksheets loaded with thousands of stamps, a folder with collections of the Italian Social Republic and Allied Military Government along with numerous blocks and partial sheets, a 46-page homemade album of the topic of ships with many souvenir sheets and an emphasis on the British Commonwealth, two boxes of mint/used worldwide in glassines, a box crammed with "102" cards of Denmark and Sweden, another box filled with worldwide mint blocks and souvenir sheets, and more surprises. Say what you want about this collection, but if you land this lot within the estimate, it's a bargain for sure., Fine to Very Fine. (Image)

Worldwide, Hodgepodge of Curiosities in Albums & Stockbooks. Large lot beginning with a well-filled 5-volume set of the Scott Internationals up until 1962, and sure to contain many nice surprises. For the U.S. collector, there is a massive postal card collection on White Ace and homemade pages from 1951-2001, along with over 200 different envelopes from 1958-2020 including Air Mail and Officials. For the collector of Japan, you will find a mint remainder collection from 1888-1968 blackmounted in a White Ace album which is actually well-filled from the late 50's onwards. There are also well over 500 FDCs spanning the years 1960-80 and a beautiful collection of unused postal stationary of well over 300 postal cards from 1949-2015.

Worldwide, "Another Nice Mess" Accumulation, 1850-1990s. Often quoted in the Laurel & Hardy films, this too is a "nice" mess.

There's a binder filled with mint/used Austria & Belgium, an album containing topical sets from around the world, a binder with mostly mint French Colonies along with circuit pages filled with Italy, a stack of stamps on pages covering Japan to Wurttemberg, a large circuit book filled with many hundreds of Canada including cut squares, precancels, revenues and tagged variants, six binders filled with 100's of mint/used Turkey, Burundi, Cambodia, Mongolia, the latter three with topicals galore, a few more binders loaded with worldwide and a box filled to the gills which must be many 1000's of stamps, worldwide mint/used in glassines and lots of U.S. and Canada. To round out this collection, we have a box of 30 retired APS circuit books with $4000-5000 cat value and mostly Western Europe; lots of Scandinavia and some Asia.

Worldwide, Excellent Mint & Used Air Mail Collection, 1919-34. The outside cover of this album is long gone, but the pages of this Nicklin Air Mail Stamp Album from 1934 are surprisingly in excellent condition and have endured the test of time.

Some obvious standouts are France #C1-2 used, Japan C1-2 mint and Russia C21(2) MNH, but there are certainly other treasures to be unearthed in what must be well over 1,000 stamps, With very few exceptions, Fine to Very Fine.
