image Massive Hoard of New Issues from the 1960s Thousands of stamps in sets or multiple examples, myriad imperforates, souvenir sheets, errors of surcharged & overprinted on 1960s Democratic Republic of Congo, mostly in original stapled glassine folded sheets received directly from new issue services of the country. Also includes similarly presented sets and souvenir sheets of that era from Burundi, Rwanda and Katanga. Some foxing and light toning in places from being stored for decades in old-time glassine sheets. A wonderful array of topicals, such as Fauna, Flora, J.F. Kennedy, Sports, Medicine, etc. Catalogue value is well into six figures; the first time we have ever seen such a massive, untouched holding of this area.

NOT COUNTED are several hundred sheets, part sheets and blocks from the late period of Belgian Congo, 1960s D.R. Congo, etc., bought as new issues and left in disarray, heavily duplicated and in very mixed condition due to improper handling and storage. However, some can be salvaged. (Image)
