image Extensive and Valuable Lifetime Collection of Persia (Iran) in Four Stockbooks, to About 1960, meticulously collected by the owner who was a consul in Iran at the time, and who collaborated on an early (ca. 1960) Iran Specialized catalogue with Robert Denzin (included in the lot). The collection was put aside in 1961 and not touched until now. Most of the stamps issued up to the early 1950s are represented in one to dozens of examples, displayed with used at first, followed by mint (most often never hinged), with many stamps identified by Scott numbers. In the used section, we noted many better items (not counting any of the numerous stamps before 1925 with overprints), including #s 46 (x3, $30 ea.), 49 (x4, $100 ea.), 50 (x3, $60 ea.), 51 (x6, $60 ea.), 52 (x6, $40 ea.), 55 (x3, $80 ea.), 56 ($70), 88 (x2, $25 ea.), 89 (x4, $30 ea.), 119 (x2, $25 ea.), 488 (x11, $35 ea.), 493 (x3, $125 ea.), 494 (x20, $50 ea.), 495 (x2, $100 ea.), 498 (x23, $100 ea.), 499 (x22, $100 ea.), 560-577 (in various quantities, total $865), 677 (x12, $35 ea.), 678 (x12, $35 ea.), 679 (x13, $40 ea.), 680 (x17, $45 ea.), 734 (x2, $75 ea.), 758 (x8, $30 ea.), 759 (x10, $60 ea.), 766 (x14, $40 ea.), 785 (x2, $55 ea.), 815 (x2, $75 ea.), 816 (x4, $40 ea.), 817 (x3, $50 ea.), C1/C13 (28 various stamps, $217 total), C17-21 (3 complete sets plus various others, $790 total), C29-C33 (37 various stamps, $750 total), C48-50 ($170 total), C62 ($100), and many more. The mint section includes better items such as #s 27-30 ($310 total), 437 ($35), 442 ($50). 445 (x2, $200 each), 439-445 (set, #1,198), 733 ($60), 755 ($150), 758 ($200), 759 ($175), 766 (x4, $37 ea.), 768 (x4, $50 ea.), 769 ($85), 770 (x3, $90 ea.), 786-94 (x7 complete sets, $118 ea.), 803 (x2, $45 ea.), 804 ($150), 807 (x2. $50 ea.), 808 (x2, $100 ea.), 809 ($350), 813 ($140), 814 (x3, $85 ea.), 818 ($400), 819 ($150), 820 (x2, $100 ea.), 821 ($200), 822 ($200), 870A-870H (set of 8 imperforate sheets and set of 8 perforated sheets, $846 in footnote), C12 (x6, $45 ea.), C13 (x2, $45 ea.), C17 (x2, $125 ea.), C51-67 (complete set, $585), etc. There is much more value in this collection, especially if counting all of the possible reprints, or overprinted material, some of which has a good chance of being genuine, as the owner bought a lot of this material directly from the post office. Aside from the mint and used regular issues, the collection contains Airmails, Revenues, Officials, a page of overprint varieties, mint and used blocks of four, cinderellas, perforation varieties, parcel post stamps, newspaper stamps and a number of items that were not listed when the owner did his inventory in 1958. A wonderful and rare opportunity to acquire a true old-time collection. See our many online photos for a sampling, better yet try to view it in person to better appreciate its value. (Image)
