85-

Collection of Mint Canada in a Hingeless Lighthouse Album, 1898 to 1951, starts off with both 2c Maps, both 2c on 3c Queen Victoria surcharges (both of these XF NH), then complete to the end, as per Lighthouse pages. The back of the book includes complete Special Delivery (with three different #s E1), all O.H.M.S. and G overprinted Officials, all dues in period (missing the first set 2c thin paper variety only), as well as three shades of the 2c Registration (these are VF to XF) and 2 shades of the 5c. All stamps have been verified by us for hinging, and the hinged have been identified on the page with an asterisk (other stamps are never hinged). These hinged stamps tend to be either lightly hinged or very lightly hinged, with a few exceptions. A very clean and mostly very fine collection.
