50/756

Collection of Mostly Mint Never Hinged, all in black mounts in an album, the majority are mint never hinged, and the few that are (usually) lightly hinged are clearly marked and have been counted as such. Unusually fresh collection, starting with Jubilees, Leafs, Numerals, good Admirals, and mainly complete for regular issues from after Admirals up to the end. There are almost no coils included, as they were collected separately and offered elsewhere in this sale, and we noted some interesting varieties. We noted many very fine stamps and the catalogue value is for only up to 1950 (including back of the book) and the modern included some better items such as all Winnipeg tagged, including centre blocks of the 1970 Christmas issues ($240 each). A little duplication, overall fine to mostly very fine, see scans for an idea.
