Virtually Complete Collection of St. Helena Queen Elizabeth II Issues, 1953-2021, neatly displayed in hingeless mounts in two Lighthouse albums, with slipcases. The collection is very nearly complete, with a range from Scott #139/1174, and includes roughly 75 souvenir sheets. Owner's 2018 Scott catalogue value totals $2,746, but our observation is that this number has gone up by perhaps 20% in some cases. A spot check indicated primarily lightly hinged stamps from the 1950s up to the 1960s, with almost exclusively never hinged material post-1970. A very clean collection that will appeal to British Commonwealth collectors, or dealers looking for stock. Very fine throughout, online photos show a sampling. (Image)
