Collection of Mint and Used Japan in 8 Albums, 1900-1990s, with slipcases, with many hundreds of stamps in hingeless mounts with album pages in Japanese and English text, including dates of issue. The strength of the collection is the primarily used material from 1946 to 1972, and the primarily mint material, from 1973 to 1990 (including many mint sets), with scattered selections of mint and used stamps on either side of the range. A spot check indicated #s 369 (c.v. $87, without gum as issued), 439-442 (m.h., $60 total), 473a mint and used block ($95 total), 479 (m.h. $150), 517 (m.h., $65), C9-C13 (used, $71), along with stamps, sets, and partial sets cataloguing from $10 to $20 and up. Online photos show a sampling. Overall fine to very fine. (Image)
