image New Guinea Superb Mint Collection, 1931-1939, including many never hinged items. The collection starts with a MNH 1931 Birds of Paradise dated set Scott 18-30 (c.v. $480, the 2/- value has a rust spot and was not counted), then the first 10 values, to 2/-, are present in MNH pairs with the John Ash imprint on the bottom margin. The 1933 redrawn set Scott 31-45 is next in mixed hinged and never hinged condition for the lower values, though all 4 higher values 2/- to £1 are MNH (c.v. $309). A redrawn orange ½d stamp is unlisted in Scott, but noted with a £100 value in Stanley Gibbons as unissued without the air mail overprint. Airmail stamps Scott C44 MNH (c.v. $350) and 46-59 mh (c.v. $720) complete this collection all shown in our scans. Very fine.

image New Zealand Mint Never Hinged Decimal Collection to 2020, in black Vario pages filling 5 thick and heavy binders. Includes Health miniature sheets, lots of complete sheetlets and booklets, dozens of souvenir sheets and gutter pairs with philatelic exhibition overprints, stamps and souvenir sheets from foreign countries in joint issues, Kiwi Mail stamps and booklets.

For 1967 to 1980, the stamps are either mint or used, but often both are present. From 1981 on MNH stamps are occasionally joined by used, from 1991 on MNH stamps are near complete without souvenir sheets. A group of over 60 album pages include thousands of stamps from the period 1880 to about 1960 many of which should be checked for perforation or watermark.
