2001			Carefully Curated Powerful Certified Collection, 1846-1930s, carefully mounted into four Scott National albums, although the collector only occasionally used these National pages. It should be noted, many (if not most) of the stamps have certificates, the vast majority of which (including most of the Washington / Franklin coils) are from Weiss, with the remaining mixed between Crowe, PSE and the PF. Instead of collecting in the normal Scott National or even the old-time collector style of quadrille pages, this collector used a unique style where he took a photocopy of the certificate and then mounted each stamp over the image part of the certificate to both identify each stamp as well as show the condition of the stamp. Several of these items have at one time been individual lots in prestigious auctions, but we have elected to offer this completely intact, so there are some great individual items that are not normally left in collections. Due to the massive concentration of value here, we are going to need to deviate from our typical wall of numbers approach to descriptions and instead go with a more holistic approach to not overwhelm the catalog with an exceedingly long description. We will write a holistic description to give you an idea of what is in the collection and then list highlights, which may have also been mentioned in the holistic description for those of you who are just scanning for certain numbers. We will touch on certain areas, but we are not going to list everything we see, instead relying on the work of our excellent photography department to show videos of every page which can be viewed at our website. Believe it or not, it is really a struggle to keep the description as short as it is. There are plenty of items we are not mentioning, such as the many duplicates of some issues as well as the occasional less expensive or dubious item. The collection starts with several early Provisionals and a couple locals used on covers including #1a with 15L17, classic 1851/1857 issues, with some better types including better perforated 10¢ types (I and IV) each with Weiss certificates, continuing to strong 1861 issues and occasional better 1867 grills, banknote grills are mostly complete (only missing 24¢), National banknote mint set appears complete, Continental banknotes mint to 12c, scattered used after, American banknotes complete mostly mint with occasional scattered used, Columbians mint to $1 and used $2, eleven Columbian expo tickets, 1894 Bureau issues to 5c with $2 used, 1895 Bureau to $1 mint, $2-$5 used, 1898 UPU color change complete mint set, Trans-Mississippi complete with mint to $1 and used $2, complete mint Pan-American, 1902 mint to $2, 319 shades, 319 booklet panes, 320 private vending, Louisiana Purchase, Jamestown, complete perf 12 Washington / Franklins, Perf 12/10 Pan Pacific sets, Perf 10 Watermark set to 50c, Perf 10 unwatermark set to 20c, decent section of Washington / Franklin coil waste issues, offset issues complete (including a used 534B Schermack), perf 11 Bureau set complete, Kans.

2002			Valuable and Well-Filled Collection 1847-1970, carefully mounted in Scott hingeless National album, many of which have been certified by the late William Weiss, with a few APS, PF or PSE certificates. The concentration of value here should not be understated, as there is plenty of duplication of better early issues as well as occasionally duplicated better key values. Most of the mint stamps mentioned in the highlights section below have accompanying certificates of authenticity. Due to the sheer volume of better stamps here, our existing bidders should note that this description follows a newer format, where we are writing a holistic general description, followed by some highlights (which may or may not overlap the general description). In addition, our imaging department is working hard to provide a complete video of the collection available on our website for those of you who cannot make it here for viewing.

2004			Exorbitant Collection, 1847-1930s, carefully mounted onto loose Scott National pages, when we say exorbitant, we mean both exorbitant value and the sheer number of stamps. It wasn't unusual for the collector to collect 2 or 3 of some of these issues (especially among the early issues) as well as a few usages on cover of the earliest issues. Several of the better stamps have certificates (30 in total from PF, PSE, APS or Weiss) and there is a tremendous amount of meat here for the U.S. specialist or dealer. Highlights abound here, but rather than go into our normal list format, we are going to touch on the larger highlights to not overwhelm the description with a wall of numbers. There is some high value among the early classic mint, although we didn't have time to carefully check each one. Despite this deviation from our normal style, please be assured that all of the normal stamps you would expect to see are likely here and we encourage you to check out on our website for a complete video of the entire collection, or if you have a chance to visit us, we would love to show you this collection for you to carefully browse. Better highlights include, used: 1 (3 singles, plus 2 covers), 2 on cover, 8A/7/8A vertical strip on cover, 13, 1857 perforated issues have lovely 1¢ and 10¢ type sections and lovely shades of 5¢, 18, 22 (2), 23, 24 type Va, 31, 64B, 67, 70/78 several shades including 70b with Weiss cert, 83 and 85 both with Weiss certificate, E and F grills appear complete with APS certificate for 95, complete pictorials, National, Continental and American banknotes mostly complete, missing some high denominations, includes a few early grills and some nice mint stamps, 218 and mint: 40, 189, 208, 212-17, 219-29 with 2c caps, 230-40 with duplicates of several denominations, 1894-95 Bureau issues appear complete to $1 (just need a little spot checking), 278, 279-84, 285-91, 293, 294-99, 300-10, 312-13, 319-20 shades and multiples, 323-27, 367-73 plus imperforate pairs, 331-42, 374-82, 343-47, strong early Washington / Franklin coils with 350 pair with Weiss mini cert, 353-54 pairs with APS certificates, blue papers: 357-59, 366, 397-400A, 403 (2), 404, 414-21, 422-23, perf 10 Washington / Franklins mostly complete except 5c error and a couple higher denominations, 519 PSE certificate, some coil waste issues, 523, 524 (2), 547, offsets mostly complete, 551-73 (with duplicates of shades), 581-91, 595 with PF certificate, 599A single and pair, 630, 634A, 634 long ear, 658-79, multiples of C1-6 and C18, special deliveries complete with a couple denominations used in place of expensive mint issues (ie: E4 used) E11-13 multiples for shades, Q1-12 with duplicates including Q11, F1, a few early banknote dues.

2018			Highly Specialized Old-Time Collection, 1840-1907, in three albums of home made pages. This is the part 1 of two parts, the second being early to mid 20th century. Collection is organized in the old time classical style of collecting stamps, along with various varieties, fancy cancels, usages on cover, etcetera and even included the Spanish American war country overprints among the later issues. This collector really wanted to form a comprehensive narrative though stamps, so he started with stampless covers, proceeded to the first stamps of Great Britain and then proceeds to tell a story of U.S. philately through the stamps that were issued, focusing on various usages, ie. drop rate, regular rate with additional carrier rate, multiple rates, etcetera. He then proceeds to include various issues, not by Scott number, but by the day of issuance, so Special Delivery would be inserted into the context of when they were issued, along with a solid section of officials, some Confederates, local carriers, etcetera. Of course, my list below had to be reorganized back into a more traditional auction description style of grouping like items together. Collection starts with a couple early stampless covers, Great Britain 1 cover and number 4 single, U.S. covers: 1-2, 9, 7 and 11 on cover, LO2 on cover with #11, 14 cover front to Havana, 25 (2 covers), 26 on Remember Ellsworth Civil War Patriotic cover, 36 pair on cover, unpaid soldier's Civil War letter signed by company Chaplain, 65 on cover to Fort Warren (Civil War POW camp), 63 (3) on single cover, 68 cover to Canada, 70 two singles on cover to Dundalk Ireland, 77 on cover to France, 92 on drop letter rate cover, 96 on cover front with double perforations row at bottom of stamp, 112 used as revenue on check, 112-13 on cover, 112 drop rate cover, 113 carrier rate cover, 115 on cover to England, 116 on cover to France, 117 on cover to England, used: 7, 9, 10A pair, 12, 14 pair on piece, 17, 24 strip of 3, 25 (2), 26 block of four, 26 with paritial imprint, 29, 30A, 30A/33 on piece, 33 (2), 35 with partial imprint, 36 (2), 38, 39 (trimmed perfs all around), 63, 67 (2), 68 Steam Ship cancel, 68-72, 73 with red starburst cancel, 73 with double vertical perforations, 75-78, San Francisco Cogwheel cancels (on 68 two stamps on cover, 70 (2), 71 and 76), 86, 96, 100, 101 reperforated all around, 112-22 (30c as pair), 112 (2), 113 (7 singles and a pair), 116 (2), 117, 119, 134-36, 135 with quadruple split grill, 149, 149 with red cancel, 151 (2), 152 -55, 153 (four stamps with various NYFM cancels), 153 quartered cork cancel, 155 NYFM cancel, 160, 162, 163, 165, 166, 190-91, 208, 214, 217, 218, 228-29, 264-78, 276-76A, 278, 308 block of four with plate number, 310-13, J6-7, J6 with anchor cancel, O4, O10-14, O28-30, O31, O32, O33-34, O39, O45, O58, O60-63, O65-68, O120, Confederate 1-2, 4, 13, Philippines 212, mint: 24 pair, 37, 63 no gum block of four, 214 block of four, 216 block of four, 212, 224-25, 265 plate number strip of 3, 272 plate number strip of 3, 302-3 plate number strips of three, 309, 301c, 319g, 320 block of four, J25, O1-9, O22-23, O25-26, O31, O32, O37, O41-44, O51, O54, O57, O59, O64, O80, O87-88, O90-93, O7SD, O10SD-O14SD, O15SD-O16SD, O57SD-O59SD, O61SD, O72SD, O106, PC5-PC8 and Philippines 214b.
