1086   imageU.S., Mint & Used Collections in Albums, 1893-2019, Six separate collections, one all mint from 1933-2007 in three Minkus American Commemorative albums with all stamps in mounts. Very nearly complete with only a few missing. Many added booklet panes and mini-sheets from the 1990s on amounting to some serious face value estimated at around $900. Another mint collection, this time in a 2-volume Scott National has very few stamps before 1930, but from 1940-99 it is very nearly complete, with not only over $800 in face, but some scarcer modern issues like the Legends of the West recalled sheet and the Bugs Bunny pane without die cutting, as well as most coils from 80's & 90's in pairs or strips of 3 with plate numbers. A 3-volume set from Minkus houses an all-used collection from 1935-2019. Only a few missing up to 1987 but still extremely well-filled from then on. Yet another Minkus set, this one in three volumes and covering mint postal stationery from 1893-1998; nearly complete from 1960-93 with envelope entires, postal cards, aerograms and official mail. The fifth collection is an American Bicentennial Commemorative album in two volumes, a worldwide mint collection featuring stamps & souvenir sheets from the mid-70's honoring America's 200th birthday; extensive British Commonwealth, Latin America, etc., and best of all, it too is almost complete. And lastly, another mint collection with well over $300 in face from 1935-96 bringing the total face value in this lot to over $2000, but I would rather look at this last one as a collection, because not only does it have some better stamps, like a complete set of Prexies and a number of Ducks, but it is housed in perhaps the finest album available for U.S. collectors, the Scott Platinum Hingeless Series, here in pristine condition and in five volumes, Almost all Fine to Very Fine, A quick flip of four volumes are viewable online to give you a feel for the level of completeness.
