Much more to peruse, like a gigantic mint sheet album filled with hundreds of full sheets, mostly from Japan & the Ryukyus, Liechtenstein, Israel and the United States. Some sticking was noticed but in most cases appeared to be separable without damage. Unfortunately not the case with the many better souvenir sheets in glassines, such as Switzerland B105 & B206 and a dozen sheets of Liechtenstein 395. These seemed to have succumbed to the elements through improper storage, yet some of this may still be salvageable. Definitely should be examined on-site, but some additional images are available online, overall Fine to Very Fine. Shipping charges apply - weight 99 lbs.
