2719   imageSweden, "How Swede It Is!" Outstanding Mostly Mint Collection, 1855-1980s, Four hingeless Lighthouse albums, but we really only need to concentrate on one. The classics here are indeed outstanding, from the sex skilling Coat of Arms with certificate to the two rarely seen from the Gustav V issue, the 55 & 80 öre, both essentially mint never-hinged as they are only hinged on selvage and both signed Wennberg. Other fantastic items too, like used #2, 4 (with certificate), 7, 26-27, LX1, and mint 1p, 6, 12, 14 (no gum), 16, 31, 36, 40-46, 48, 52-63, 66, 67-73, 94, 197-211, 213-27, 229, B11, B12-21, J1-4, J9-10, O23, etc. Pages are up to 1994 but pickings are slim and mostly used after 1973. But as mentioned, it's the first volume we're after and a Swedish classic collection such as this is hard to top! overall Fine to Very Fine, additional images available online. Shipping charges apply - weight 20.4 lbs. (PDF for this Lot) (Video for this lot) (Image)

2720   imageSweden, Breathtaking Highly Specialized Booklet Collection, 1936-2002, Sweden, long since famous for its booklet production, is also an area ripe for specialization not only for the usual differences in booklet design both inside and out, and the various configurations of stamps, but also the various register markings, control & cylinder numbers and other differentiating factors. There are about 2,000 booklets in total, and except for one counter book of used, entirely mint and almost all identified by Facit number. The centerpiece is a small 6-drawer wooden card catalog which would not look out of place in the Kungliga Biblioteket! Many better booklets throughout, such as Facit #H31, H58B, H59, H63 (type I), HA1 (both R & O), etc. Also numerous Provhäften (test booklets) from the 1960-90s, three binders with approximately 300 Automathäften (slot-machine booklets) and a counter book of oversized booklets. Not often we see a booklet collection with this much depth and you can view part of it by following the link, Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 59 lbs.

2721   imageSweden, "Härlig" 95% Used Collection, 1855-2016, In four pristine hingeless Lighthouse albums, an absolutely scrumptious smörgåsbord up for grabs here, from a long list of valuable classics to hard-to-obtain used booklet pairs and complete booklets. Get ready to be blown away from the very first page with two Stockholm locals and a more-or-less complete set of the first issue, albeit two stamps being reprints (#1p & 5q) but valuable nevertheless. Better used include #LX1-2, 2-4, 6-12, 13-16, 17-27, 28-38, 40-49, 197-212, 213-28, B11, B12-21, J8-11, J16-22, O1-11 and many more. And let me reiterate how difficult it would be to complete a collection of used booklet pairs. Many have died trying and Scott doesn't even list them, but they're here in droves and could feasibly be completed by this collection's successor. With the exception of some minor varieties, mostly Scott-unlisted, it's nearly complete up until 1994. As a bonus, an additional Lighthouse binder with complete panes, some on cover. Condition varies a bit, but on the whole Fine to Very Fine, many images available online. Shipping charges apply - weight 32 lbs. (PDF for this Lot) (Image)

2722   imageSweden, "Counter Offer" All-Mint Dealer Stock in Counter Books, 1872-1997, 23 counter books in all packed with some nice classics and abundant quantities on through to the modern era; each page is identified by Facit number and this includes varieties you won't find in Scott, like inverted watermarks and color variants. As you would expect, bountiful booklet stamps in pairs and full panes, as well as coil strips with number on back. By Scott number, here are some of the premium items you will encounter: #17, 32, 35 (partial gum), 44, 61, 89, 160-61, 194-96, 197-211, J3, J6, J22, O16, and a gorgeous NH corner margin copy of B11.

2723   imageSweden, Magnificent Mostly Used Stock, 1872-2008, In 15 file boxes, tens of thousands of stamps and extremely well organized with all identified by Facit number; the owner has indexing throughout these files by catalogue numbers and further labeled individual glassines with the specific Facit number according to subvariety. Without a doubt, better items to be found including a section on Railway Mail with catalogue numbers referring to the Facit Postal catalogue. The final box has some random material and I couldn't help noticing a mint block of four of Scott #O4 along with three coil rolls. You'll certainly need the Facit catalogue for this lot, and if you would like to visit and view this lot in person, we have one you can borrow! Extremely high catalogue value, and overall Fine to Very Fine, a quick skim through some of the files is viewable online. Shipping charges apply - weight 38 lbs.

In 16 binders/stockbooks, mint & used stock, some with mint blocks, such as complete sheets of nine from Stockholmia '55, some with used blocks & panes, four stockbooks with mint coil strips of five, a highly specialized collection of 1950s-60s definitives designated with Facit number, and another fantastic used collection neatly organized on stocksheets with such powerhouse sets as #197-212 & 213-28, as well as stamps not listed in Scott, like a pair of 229 on white paper (Facit 233b). An additional used collection on quadrille pages in two volumes from 1932-68, ten mint annual years sets including 1997-2002 complete with dozens of other souvenir folders, and large packets of duplicates, and I mean many thousands of stamps of such Scott numbers as 47, 49, 53, 55, O14-15, O17, O20, O22, O24 and others. If you look at the Facit catalogue, there are plenty of color & plate varieties listed and just waiting to be discovered!

2726   imageSweden, Mouth-watering Mint & Used Postal Stationery Collection, 1873-1976, For lovers of postal stationery and collectors of Scandinavia, this is the one you've been waiting for; a specialized collection of envelopes, postal cards, letter cards and air letter sheets all designated with the Higgins & Gage number but also many with corresponding Michel number. Nine binders, three for unused and six for used housing a total of around 640 pieces. Choice items throughout, such as unused Michel #K7 (8), K8 (13), K9 (3), K10 (4), K20, PK I, PK IV, PK VI, P1, P25 (2), P29 (3), P30 (2). And these quantities you see are not mere duplication but variants, in the case above, different date indicators. As for used, much international usage, for example, P13 alone has at least eight copies all with different countries as its destination. P14 has four copies, one of which was sent to Finland but returned with an "Inconnu" label, and another sent to Belgium with a special cancel from the Winter Grand Prix in Rämshyttan in 1933. Many more high-value items, like dozens of used letter cards with their borders intact which command premium prices. You can view this sensational collection via online video flips by clicking on the link below, generally Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 36 lbs.

2727   imageSweden, Attractive Holding of Classics, 1856-1936, neatly presented on two stockpages, mint/unused except for the two Local stamps, a total of 62 stamps from #12 to 188, plus a #O8a; all face-fresh, with several mathematically centered; all appear sound, but expect a lurking fault, Fine to Very Fine to Superb, a very pretty mini-collection, with 2006 A.P.S. certificates for #12 and 37.
Scott $5,300. (Image) (Image2) (Image3)
