Lot Description

Collection of Mint Postage Dues, from 1906 to 1978, consisting of singles, blocks and plate blocks of 4 or 10 displayed in 3 stockbooks. Mostly complete in period, with very light duplication. With the exception of the 3 blocks of 4 from the first issue (two top stamps are hinged), the remainder of the collection appears mint never hinged. The obvious strength resides in the representation of the first, second and third issues (owner's c.v. $4,028) as well as the 36 blocks of ten in the fourth issue. The "Red Dues" are plentiful with over 175 plate blocks of 4 or 10, including many varieties identified by the owner. Also included is a small group of postage dues on cover. Overall very fine, great lot for the specialist. Online photos show a sampling. (Scan 1) (Scan 2) (Scan 3) (Scan 4) (Scan 5) (Scan 6) (Scan 7) (Scan 8) (Scan 9) (Scan 10) (All Scans)

Mint and Used BNA Collection, displayed on 8 stock pages, consisting of a Newfoundland collection from 1865 to 1947, with mostly used in the early issues then a mixture of mint and used onwards. We noted mostly part sets,but no apparent duplication. We also noted 2 British Columbia stamps (#7 used and #8 mint), New Brunswick is present with 8 stamps, Nova Scotia with 12 stamps, Prince Edward Island rounds out with 16 stamps. Also included is a small inventory of perforated (4 holes) and overprinted Official stamps. Clean lot, overall fine to very fine, the odd mint never hinged stamps has pencil notes (catalogue #), useful and a good basis to build on.

Collection of Roughly 600 Mint and Used Newfoundland Issues, 1880s-1947, in a few Vario-style stock pages in a binder, and a sheet file. The lot begins with roughly 250 mostly never hinged issues, generally ranging from 1932 onwards, with a spot check indicating sets and partial sets with Scott #s C6-C8 (x4, c.v. $760 total), 233-243 (x3, n.h, $193 total), along with a few stamps and sets cataloguing $20 and up. The lot also includes roughly 20 complete sheets and larger multiples, including #192 (x100, n.h., $1,600 total, two strips of 10, and 2 blocks of 40), with the remainder post-1939 issues. The balance of the lot contains roughly 350 used stamps, ranging from the 1880s to 1947. Online photos show a sampling. We note a few small faults with a few of the used stamps, and some perforation separation with a few of the sheets, with most folded in half to fit in the sheet file. Overall fine to very fine.

Specialized Perforation Collection of the 1923 Pictorial and 1928-31 Publicity Issues, all mounted on 27 specialized Lighthouse pages, showing a wide variety of perforations for the 1923 Pictorial (6 pages, 9 perforation combinations / varieties), 1928 Publicity (12 pages, 21 perforation combinations / varieties), 1929 Publicity unwatermarked, re-engraved (6 pages, 12 perforation combinations / varieties) and 1931 Publicity watermarked, re-engraved (2 pages, 6 perforation combinations / varieties). The collection consists of mainly mint stamps, but there are used here and there (in some cases both), and the perforations were unchecked by us. Catalogue value is for all the least expensive perforations (per Scott), and although there are a few NH here and there, we have catalogued all as hinged, so a conservative approach throughout. All pages scanned online.
