image Extensive Collection of Quebec Wildlife Conservation Stamps, 1988 to 2020, in two very full binders on black stock sheets and home made album pages. The owner was keen to collect most of the issued items including booklets (with most overprinted varieties), perforated and imperforate sheets of four, imperforate singles and FDCs. The collection begins with the scarce 1988 issues and runs through 2020. We noted many artists' signatures throughout. It also includes additional issues from the Manitoba Wildlife Federation, the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters and Ducks Unlimited (these not included in the catalogue value). With the mounted collection there are also the presentation folders for most of the issues and some promotional material. Overall very fine and ready for someone to fill in the few gaps that remain. This is a rarely offered collection at this level of completion. Great for a collector or dealer alike. See the photos online for some of the better items. (Image)

image Collection of Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, PEI and Newfoundland, 1860 to 1947, in a Lighthouse album with slipcase. We noted a few Newfoundland covers including a larger registered first day cover of the Long Coronation issue with a lovely "ST.J.&PA.B.R.P.O" receiving cancel on the back. Also included are 27 covers franked with Newfoundland stamps on Salvation Army, YMCA and Canadian Legion covers, most with military censor marks. Unitrade catalogue value for the NB (x10), NS (x9) and PEI (x13) stamps is $830 counting all as the least expensive, basic stamps in fine condition only. We did not look closely for paper varieties. The Newfoundland is rather sparse, with around 30 stamps present, mostly mint hinged. A very clean offering, this lot would be ideal for a collector looking to start new areas of interest. See photos which show all the stamps except Newfoundland, along with a good representation of the postal history. (Image)
