Fabulous 1840-1990 Used Collection Offered Intact A meticulously mounted and identified collection on typewritten quadrilled pages, housed in a thick Scott Specialty two-post binder, a very extensive one-of-a-kind collection from 1840 to the modern era including some officials plus virtually complete postage dues, regionals and other odds & ends. Supplemented with numerous shades, printings, plates, varieties and a few covers. A very high percentage are present and were selected for sound condition in addition to the clarity of postmark. Loaded with elusive shades and printings throughout, noting different papers, plates printings, shades and high values. For example 1913-1924 "Seahorse" includes both shades of the £1 value in select quality. Real "sleepers" are to be found as well, such as 1911 ½p green perf 14 (error), 1911-1912 ½p & 1p no cross on crown varieties, among others. Emphasis of value is in myriad Line-engraved and Surface-printed issues and remarkably enough, the condition of these particularly challenging issues is well-above average. A most appealing collection for a collector looking for a substantial, clean country collection to build on. (Image)
