"In Stock" Extremely Potent Mostly Used Holding, 1846-1920, From New York and Providence, R.I. Postmaster Provisionals to a very thorough handling of the Washington/Franklins, an incredibly powerful assemblage of classics on black stocksheets, mostly used but plenty of better mint throughout as well. Multiples of #1 & 2, in-depth 1851-61 issues, copious Bank Notes, complete 1869 Pictorials, a very extensive array of 1st & 2nd Bureau issues, and more, all sorted into quasi-catalogue order but further analysis is unquestionably needed with various shades, watermark, and type & grill varieties yet to be determined, which could very well yield to even greater value than what already is in plain sight, not to mention fancy cancels and a number of proofs sprinkling in. Entirely viewable online with the first half of stocksheets scanned for a closer look. As expected, condition will vary, but overall Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 7.1 lbs.

"One Mississippi, Two Mississippi, Three Mississippi" Bountiful Mint Trans-Mississippi 1¢ & 2¢ Holding, 1898, You can keep counting because there's a whole lotta mint here and almost all of it in pairs with imprint & plate number. A total of 30 pairs for the 1¢ and over 130 for the 2¢ with a few extra singles. Catalogue alone for the singles based on hinged value is around $7,500 but that's not taking the attached plate numbers into account, nor the fact that a lot of this should be considered never-hinged as often the hinge was only applied to the selvage. As an added bonus, as if this lot actually needed one, is a MNH strip of four of the 4¢ Pan-American, also with imprint & plate number, generally Fine to Very Fine, additional images online.

There is a total of 48 counter books, overall mostly used but still a lot of mint in between including many blocks. Two books specifically for possessions and two books for B-O-B with such better material as mint #236, 573, 675, 832 (plate block), RW13, and used 239, 294-99, 300-10, 323-27, 397-403, 524, C5-6, E2-5, Q11, R50a (pair), R80c, R83c, R87c, R94c, R105, R113-14, R116, R138, RW8, RW11, Canal Zone 21, Hawaii 71, etc. On-site inspection would be advantageous especially considering the amount of face in this lot, overall Fine to Very Fine, three books flipped online as reference.
