image Mint and Used Collection on Steiner Pages to 2004, very extensive collection close to complete 1936 to 2004, mostly MH though definitive series are often used and short of the highest values. Noted well developed back of the book sections. Early pages 1894 to 1925 are well populated but these stamps have not been expertized. A difficult collection to assemble in this quality, mostly fine or better. (Image)

image Valuable Collection in a Thick Scott Specialty Album, 1862 to 1970, quite extensive, with a mix of mint and used, sometimes both (hinged one above the other). Starts with powerful early issues, with many shades, starts to include lots of mint from 1910 to the end, including many valuable sets and singles, (too many to list here, but see scans or inspect, many in the $100 to $300 range), not missing many to complete in period. The back of the book is also powerful, with lots of value in the air mails, pneumatic post, special delivery, postage dues and others. Finally, the occupation and colony stamps are well represented (Fiume was lotted separately). Careful inspection would be necessary to better appreciate the value within, despite our many scans online. Overall nice quality collection. (Image)
