Collection of Wildlife Conservation Stamps on Permits, in Plate Blocks and Booklets, 1985 to 2020, displayed on 18 double-sided black Vario sheets, with some duplication among the 74 booklets where the collector showed front and back of intact booklets. Some of the booklet covers are damaged from previous poor mounting, though the stamps themselves are in good condition. There are 13 stamps on permit, which can be tough to find; these show the usual wear from being carried by the hunter. All 14 plate blocks are different and we noted a full sheet of 16 of the 1986 stamp (Unitrade c.v. $375). A clean, organized collection of this popular collecting area. Condition is fine or better and most items are shown in our photos. (Image)
