COLLECTIONS AND ACCUMULATIONS — Russia
LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
1125*oRussia collection in three clean Scott Specialty albums and slipcases from 1913 to 1984. Comprises hundreds of mainly mint stamps in singles, partial and full sets in clear mounts becoming well filled from 1956 to 1984. Integrates easily into stock or could form the basis for expansion.Cat. Value: S.B. 1,700.00
Price Realized: $1,800.00
1126*oRussia collection/accumulation. Includes two albums an almost empty Minkus and a better filled Scott Specialty to 1954. The latter’s souvenir sheets have been mounted with “shrinky dink” mounts which have tended to wrinkle. The mess of better souvenir sheets will now need to be sweated and pressed. #1327a imperf is no gum which makes this task easier and profitable. Most of the value is in a small glassine box with sets in Scott order whose catalog values done long ago do not reflect modern reality. Fun lot to break down, and then market profitably.Cat. Value: S.B. 750.00
Price Realized: $1,050.00
1127*oRussia collection oddly organized in a “mystic” album 1944-1959 and four folders of manila stockpages organized roughly by year to about 1968. Little power in the album, but a different story in the stockcards. Here is where the value is needing only an appropriate album to enhance the value.Cat. Value: S.B. 750.00
Price Realized: $850.00
1128*oRussia selection circa 1941 to 2002. Around 4,000 mainly mint stamps in singles and sets having lots of the familiar Russian themes over and over again arranged neatly in numerical order on “102” size cards in two red boxes. Integrates easily into stock or could form the basis for expansion.Cat. Value: 2008 cat. 4,850.00
Price Realized: $450.00
