1909 One Pound (1d x240) Blue on Pink Cover with Blue-Green Within 'GENERAL POST OFFICE, SYDNEY' on the reverse ACSC B4(V)D (based on the Sydney photograph being recorded for the Victorian issue only), the stamps neatly removed, Cat $25,000. Immaculate!: the finest of the early booklets we have ever seen.
NB: the ACSC used to state: "Prices for pre-1928 booklets are for booklet covers in good condition, containing any quantity of the relevant stamps". However, the 2020 edition states: "Prices...are for complete booklets with all stamp panes intact & original". But, to complicate matters, Footnote 3 below B4 states that only a single example of five of the seven listed booklets of this issue, including B4(V)D, have been recorded and that "a number of these have incomplete contents".
1953 QEII 3/6d Stapled Remake ACSC B57w additionally with Waxed Interleaving, some minor discolouration of the covers, Cat $1625++. Unlisted variant. [The ACSC does list this combination for the No Watermark issue ACSC B58wv]
