image Group of Complete Sheets of 50 or 100, with about 100 sheets in all, contained in 3 sheet folders with 20 different sheets and duplication up to 20 of some. Mostly definitives with many better such as #192 (x1), #217 (x2), #246(20), #249xx (1), #250 (x3), #251 (x20), #252 (x2), #290 (x10). The majority of the sheets are never hinged but we noticed a few with hinges, missing selvedge and adherences. Still overall fine or better and a useful lot for the sheet collector considering complete sheets from the War issues are getting harder to find. (Image)

Over $500 in face value and we have not counted values lower than 10 cents. Overall fine or better and a useful lot for the sheet collector or the postage user. (Image)

Collection / Accumulation of QEII Karsh / Cameo and Wilding Portrait Issues, all on 21 double-sided black stock pages and includes singles, multiples, many plate blocks, matched sets of plate blocks, coils, jump strips, start and end strips, paste-up, stationery covers and cards, commercially used covers, precancels, "G" overprinted officials, booklets, a few varieties, etc. Unchecked by us for better plate block numbers, so finds may be possible and we recommend viewing this one. Noted a used 4c Wilding stamp with a triple bar tagging error (retailed at $69.95). A good addition to an existing collection, or great opportunity to continue collecting these fascinating early QEII definitives.

image Lifetime Centennials Collection in Three Volumes, all on neatly written-up home made pages. The first album has a nice collection of first day covers, followed by mostly unused postal stationery envelopes and cards, including many private printings such as Utilities Commissions, Ontario Hydro, CN Express, CP Transport, many of which are not commonly seen, etc. The second album contains a mint study of the stamps, with tagging, plate blocks, papers, followed by precancels, then booklets, mostly showing a complete booklet and a pane beside it. The third album contains about the same as the first two except for used stamps and stationery. A lovely collection, which would have taken a long time to assemble. (Image)
