image Extensive and Valuable Collection of Unused Air Letters, with a total of 129 items, all neatly displayed in sheet protectors in a thick binder. Each item is also very well described by a dealer, with Webb number (when listed), value and retail price (between $19.95 and $99.50). We counted 44 SPECIMEN overprinted items, some that were never die cut, proof sheets (without stamp), many varieties and much more. We totaled up the retail which came to $7,100. There is duplication, but all are very fine and fresh, as well as ready to sell if purchased by a dealer, or a very strong addition to an existing collection. (Image)
