Eastern Europe Stock of Mint and Used in Twelve Red Boxes, all neatly sorted in roughly 9,000 dealer 102 cards with Scott numbers and with the majority of cards having retail prices shown (roughly 85% of the cards). The lot includes three red boxes each of Russia, Poland and Hungary, and a red box each of Czechoslovakia, Romania, and Greece, with material ranging from the 1880s to 2010. Duplication generally ranges from 1 to 10, and we estimate there to be 15% mint stamps and 85% used stamps. A spot check indicated the majority of stamps retail $2 and under, noting some stamps and a few sets retailing $5 and up. We note a few faults with the early material. Generally fine to very fine.

There are also collections of Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Romania on pages. We noted numerous Baltic stamps, with some from the inter-war years, including 10 bundles of used stamps from Lithuania. The group has many thousands of stamps in all plus hundreds of souvenir sheets & miniature panes and has excellent variety. Some of the material is already priced for sale, with many, many sets and singles in the $2 to $10 range of catalogue value. Overall fine to very fine. (Image)
