New Zealand, The Golden Kiwi Collection, 1862-2002, A Scott Specialty album from 1862-1984, mostly mint in mounts with many
instances of a used copy hinged alongside. This collection knocks you over the moment you open the album with a barrage of 40 Chalon Heads (see scans) including a proof of #8. Turning the next few pages, it still doesn't let up, and after the dust
clears, here's some of the better you will find… mint #73-74, 22-25, 165-70, 288-301, 340b (error), C1-3, C4-5, O26, O28-29, O33-37 and used 51-56, 66, 69, 76-83, 92-97, 118-20, 165-70, 197-98, B1-7, E1, E1a, O27-29, O38, OY5 and more, like a
page displaying advertisements on the backs of the 1882 issue and many better postal-fiscals. A secondary collection, again mostly mint with added used copies is hinged on album pages and runs from 1948-2002. Nowhere near the caliber of the previous
but still loaded with many complete sets and dozens of souvenir and mini-sheets. Also included in this lot are over 220 covers in two albums, mostly FDCs including a number of early health issues, like B5, B6 & B16-17, some first flights of which
there are eight round-trip covers between Australia and Papua, NZ C1-3 & B3-4 on one cover, some from NZ's dependencies, such as an overfranked cover from Niue to NZ with #76-85, Tin Can Canoe Mail from Tonga to NZ, some postal stationery both unused
and with FDC cancel, also some odds 'n ends, like Antarctic covers from Little America, a gutter block of US #768 signed by Admiral Byrd, even some bank notes. As expected, condition will vary, especially among the Chalons, but overall the collection
is Fine to Very Fine, The majority of this lot can be viewed online. Shipping charges apply - weight 19.6 lbs. (PDF for this Lot) (Video for this lot) (Video2 for this
