Cat No: CollectionCollection
A Diamond in the Rough. Exciting used German collection housed in a well-worn, dirty, creepy Schaubek album. 1872-1960. Loads of valuable singles, sets, souvenir sheets, and items on piece. Clear cancels with notable dates and locations. Hinged or mounted in correct spaces with some additional description written in pen or pencil. Includes issues from German Empire, Weimar Republic, Third Reich, post-WWII period, and the early West and East German formative phases into the late 1950's. Almost complete for the time period. Some items require an expert's eye for full evaluation. Mixed condition and some toning and other problems caused by poor storage. Collection would immediately benefit from a transfer to a new album or group of stockbooks. Viewing of this lot by specialists recommended! (Image)

Cat No: Collection
Roll Up Your Sleeves… And get to work on this gigantic German collection, 1872-2008. Housed in an album bursting at the seams. Thousands and thousands of mint and used stamps carefully hinged or mounted onto somewhat worn Scott specialty pages. Most spaces are filled, but the collection lacks some of the more elusive stamps. Fantastic opportunity to acquire a high percentage of stamps issued by Germany in all time periods: Empire, Weimar Republic, Third Reich, Allied and Soviet Zones, West Germany, East Germany, Berlin, and post-unification Germany. Also includes issues from various German states. Items on piece and many examples of cinderella stamps are mixed in with regular postage stamps and BOB. Everything will need to be removed and transferred to appropriate albums and stockbooks. Much pleasure awaits the lover of German philately or dealer requiring additional stock. (Image)
