Extensive predominantly used collection on album pages etc with good selections from most States annotated as per Michel, virtually all are genuine but, where used examples are worth significantly more than mint, we can't guarantee the postmarks. Despite that reservation, our general assessment is that this is a well-developed collection with numerous better items throughout & an overall standard far-above what is usually encountered in Australia. We have noted many very fine &/or attractive Classics and a large number of very fine to superb cancellations. Personal inspection will be rewarded. NB: about half the pages have been scanned on our website, to provide guidance to prospective bidders. (2000 approx?)
