Great Britain, Solid Balance of a High Catalog Value Collection, 1840-1970. A marvelous collection in a Scott Specialty album with extra pages added for varieties and covers; the Queen Victoria through King George V issues - virtually all used - are missing only nine major Scott numbers: Scott 31, 47, 56, 63, 90-93, 173, 174, 176, 177, 178 & 209. In addition, the Queen Victoria issues are loaded with plate numbers, minor duplication and a few better mint, the mint including #33 (plate. 102), 56 (plate. 12), 78 (block of 6, stamps NH), 99, 104 (Specimen overprint), 117 (full pane of 20, few slightly "jammed" perfs, stamps NH), 119-122 & 126, plus a used 1d Mulready Letter Sheet (mint) and 2d envelope mint. The George VI issues are mixed mint & used, while those of QE II, which include Channel Islands, are just about all mint and NH (the first definitives and phosphor issues are LH). The Postage Due issues, with J18-25 & J34-67 being mint (mainly LH) are complete and the Officials, which are fairly strong, include (used) O6, O17, O21, Govt. Parcels complete (usual heavyish cancels), O49-52, O63-64, O69, O72-77 (½d mint) & O83 (two, one heavily canceled). The Offices Abroad are pretty scattered except for the issues for Turkish Empire, which catalog about $600. As for condition, the pre-1880 Queen Victoria period is somewhat mixed, especially on the high values, but includes plenty of F-VF $100-and-up stamps, while the later material is generally F-VF with only a few small faults on some of the high values. All-in-all, a very nice lot with plenty to recommend it. Shipping charges apply - weight 7.6 lbs.
