image Worldwide Old Time Collection of Mostly Used Stamps,1850s to 1940s, consisting of over 3,800 stamps in 2 Springback albums including loose stamps in 2 Vario pages and a couple of glassine envelopes. Countries include most European such as Germany and German States, Finland, Island, Lithuania + Central Lithuania, Luxembourg, Russia (x95), Saar, Switzerland (x95),Serbia, and Liechtenstein but no Great Britain or France. However there are some from Portugal and Portuguese colonies such as Angola and Mozambique plus stamps from Asia such as China (x75), Netherlands Indies (x76), and the Philippines plus a number from Central and South America such as Argentina, Guatemala, Panama, Cuba, Peru and more. We noted a number of high value issues from Austria (#1 & 2), Belgium (#B18 & B22 mint with labels), Brazil (#70 & 216), Chile (#16), China (#14, 28, 29 and 78), Denmark (#4 and 50-52), Estonia (#C4 & C5 used pairs), Germany (#8, 20, C55 & C56), Iceland (#25), Japan (#1c & 86), Korea (#6) and Mexico (#4, 14-17 reprints or counterfeits), #27, #46-48, 98 & 129), Netherlands (#1), and Norway (#23 & 30). Back of the Book issues as well as regular issues are present. Condition varies as is expected with these older issues, with some faults and heavy cancellations. Well worth a close look despite our numerous online scans. (Image)

image Worldwide Used Collection and Accumulation in 16 Binders, including small country collections for Bulgaria, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Guatemala, Jamaica and Mongolia. Countries A to Z are covered in a combination of collector-made pages and printed album pages. Stamps are displayed in a quite haphazard fashion so duplication is frequent. Hundreds of pages are completely filled with stamps. A trove for the worldwide collector. Quality is generally very fine. (Image)

image Worldwide A Banker Box Full of On Paper Stamps, including quite recent ones from a large variety of countries. For decades, this collector threw on-paper stamps in this box and never got around to sorting and washing them. Some larger pieces hold multiple copies of the same stamp. A good proportion seem to be from Canada but we saw a huge variety of countries including from Africa, Latin America and Asia. Quite clean. (Image)

image Worldwide Collection / Accumulation of Private Perfins, consisting of hundreds of stamps, housed in 3 binders and stock pages, many featured gum side on black background. Based on a cursory look, strength appears to be in GB, Germany, U.S., Belgium, but also includes fancy perfins, blocks, and a few issues seldom offered from countries such as Sarre and China. Light duplication with mixed condition. Useful lot, unchecked for rarities. JG (Image)

image Worldwide Old Time Accumulation in a Heavy Banker's Box, mostly on-paper and sorted by country or sets in more than 80 envelopes of various sizes. This was collected before the 1930s and has not been disturbed since. We saw envelopes for most European countries but also for China (mostly Junk and Rice Reaping types), Mexico, Philippines, Belgian Congo, including 2 unused postal cards etc. Some envelopes were filled with stamps from a variety of countries. We could not check every envelope so many more finds are certain. Australia and Germany were lotted separately. This lot also includes an 80-page stockbook full of on and off-paper stamps and labels from various countries as well as two old-time stamp albums: Schaubek's Postage Stamp Album, in English, published about 1898 with some stamps and the Rapkin's Triumph Stamp Album from circa 1930. A treasure trove to be inspected. Overall fine, faults to be expected in such an old lot. (Image)

image Worldwide Mint and Used Collection in 3-Volume New Ideal Postage Stamp Albums, this deluxe album published in 1937 has been kept in pristine condition and is still stored in its original cartons. Even the flimsy glassines between each page are in as new condition. Thousands of stamps make up this old time mint and used collection to which nothing has been added but also, in a very unusual fashion for such an old collection, nothing seems to have been taken out. We thus found many stamps in the $50-$100 cv range and a few that are even worth more. Among the more populated countries, we noted Great Britain, Germany, Russia, Sweden and Switzerland. We also noted British Guiana #35 (CV $850, used with thins), Cape of Good Hope #19a used (CV $250), Malaya #14 used (CV $200). Generally F-VF, with a few faults noted in the earlier material. See scans for a sample, well worth viewing. (Image)

image Worldwide Old Time Collection in a Challenge Postage Stamp Album, from the 1930s. This mint and used collection of thousands of stamps has been in safe storage since the passing of its owner in 1960. No stamp in it has been issued later than the early 1930s. Most countries of the world are represented with an interesting assortment. We noted China, Greece Hermes Heads, Hong Kong, Rhodesia, Thailand, Bavaria among others. See the scans for a sample of interesting pages but inspect to find more. Some faults noted on earlier material. (Image)

We noted many country collections such as Spain and Colonies, Netherlands, Turkey, Monaco, Greece, Latin America countries, Romania, USA, Austria with early stamps sorted by perforations, and many others. Many have been priced by stamp, page or collection according to old catalogues. We also noted a large envelope with Portugal Department of Posts new issues notices from 1963 to about 1983. (Image)
