Fabulous 1885-1974 Parallel Mint & Used Collection On quadrilled pages with 536 mint and 369 used stamps, all different, starts with 1885 surcharges with 13 stamps including better 5c on 40c Eagle mint followed by 1891 REUNION overprint issues with 28 stamps mint / used; 1892-1905 1c-1fr Navigation & Commerce mint and used sets of 19. From 1893 to 1947 mint issues are virtually all present including semis, airmails and dues. Modern era French stamps surcharged for Reunion from 1949 to 1974 appear complete mint with much NH, noting 1949-1951 100fr-500fr mint & used sets, etc. A few flaws but overall quality is nice throughout. A very solid collection, much more extensive than normally seen. (Image)
