Iran accumulation of mint and used stamps having beneficial backup to 1980 in a medium box. Most of the value is in two stockbooks which contain many items in the $50-$600 catalog range as well as some forgeries and reprints which are identified as such. The rest of this lot contains duplicates useful for shades and cancels. A terrific lot for the Persian enthusiast. (Image)

Iran collection from 1876 to 1960 in a Scott binder on homemade pages. Approximately 750 mixed mint and used stamps in full, partial sets, single having many pre-1925 and dubious present. Spotted several one hundred dollar sets in the later period. From a knowledgeable collector in this country. Terrific start to this challenging but rewarding collecting area. (Image)
