Some of the stamps have light sulphuretting due to album storage (two such are the surcharged QV), many stamps are never hinged, a few early are lightly hinged, and most are very fine centered or close.

image Collection of Mint, 1865 to 1947, all neatly displayed in black mounts on quadrille pages and 99% complete in period, plus some back of the book. Some stamps in the beginning were not counted for various reasons (marked as such), rest are mostly fine to very fine. It should be assumed that all the stamps are hinged (counted as such) even though a spot check revealed very few never hinged. A nice collection which includes up to four copies of some issues. All pages are scanned online. (Image)
