image Banker's Box with Several Collections, including a Lighthouse album containing 1970-1991, plus other collections on pages, in binders, many loose, etc. No better souvenir sheets noted but includes many medium values such as Azores #237 (used), early used imperforate Portugal issues, back of the book issues, many used blocks and multiples, and more. Duplication, so lots of potential for postmarks, a close examination should reward. JG (Image)
