Portugal & Colonies, Mint & Used Collection, 1853-2000. Hinged on double-sided Minkus pages, this is yet another fantastic collection worthy of a much better album. Regardless, you will definitely want to check this one out. After a mix of mint and used early on, Portugal is nearly complete from the 1930's all the way to 2000 and all mint from the mid-60's onwards with a plethora of souvenir sheets including 586A. Also impressive are some of the colonies being offered alongside this collection. The Azores (1881-2000) appear to be complete 1980-2000 mint and Madeira, a nearly complete mint run of the same date range. Mozambique (1877-1984) is a very well-filled mix of mint and used, along with Mozambique Company, Inhambane, Quelimane, Zambezia, Nyassa and Lourenço Marques. Cape Verde (1877-1999) is a well-filled mix of mint and used until 1960, then virtually all mint from then on. Portuguese Guinea (Guinea-Bissau) (1881-1989) too is well-filled with a run of mint from 1983-89. Angola (1870-1985), mint and used until the mid-60's, is all mint and nearly complete from then on. In addition to mostly mint collections of St. Thomas & Prince Islands (1869-1982), Portuguese India (1877-1960) and Timor (1892-1970), you will also find a fabulous collection of Macau (1884-1998) with numerous better stamps including modern rarities such as #517a and the unissued 400th Anniversary of Macao Diocese from 1976 only footnoted in Scott., Fine to Very Fine.
