1209*oOne man’s lifetime collection packed on Scott pages well into the 1980’s. Includes 19 of the most fully loaded, bulging, fat albums that we have seen in a very long time. So many stamps are included that the binders are suffering. Impossible to count, it took a lifetime to mount. This collection is special in the fact that new issue dealers supplied many of the stamps. Hundreds and hundreds of better stamps and sets are mixed in with the tens of thousands of stamps that populate this collection. There is no weak area. Good stamps in almost every country group. The photos on the website do not show the best items, but are representative of the collection at large. Could be broken down by country or era, or be restored into an advanced worldwide collection by housing it in 25 to 30 new binders. A rare opportunity to purchase a world collection of this magnitude.Cat. Value: S.B. 25,000.00
Price Realized: $26,000.00
1210*oBlack stockpages holding nearly 300 mostly mint OG. Better singles, sets and souvenir sheets. Each is identified and most are included in the total catalog value. Enjoy gazing at page after page of the collector’s best material, but take a long look to spot any tiny flaws or dubiousness lurking about.Cat. Value: S.B. 14,000.00
Price Realized: $14,500.00
1211*oCVA great mint and used intact collection in 41 Scott Internationals. Plus Germany, Canada, Monaco, France and U.S. in 11 Scott Specialty albums. The several thousand stamps are neatly mounted with most of the mint in mounts. Last cataloged in 2005 at over $124,000.00. Appears accurate but unverified. The pages go into the late 1990’s. Well balanced with terrific value.Cat. Value: S.B. 12,000.00
Price Realized: $14,000.00
1212*oNineteen well balanced Scott Internationals with pages going into the 1970’s including a few coins in two by two pages associated some of the countries. Strength in China, British Empire (especially the classics) and Western Europe. Latin America and the Far East are also notable. Includes many mint sets mostly in mounts. Along for the ride, a Russia and decent Great Britain collection. Inspection invited.Cat. Value: S.B. 9,500.00
Price Realized: $7,500.00
1213***A-Z dealer stock in 51 medium counterbooks, strongest in British areas. Nearly all modern mint, mostly NH sets and souvenir sheets, and with reasonable duplicate quantities clearly indicated.

Price Realized: $5,500.00
1214*oHuge accumulation of collections in 20 separate albums filling four large cartons. Noticed Strand, Gibbons and Scott albums all pre 1950. At one time each of these was a stand alone collection. Ranges from hundreds to thousands of stamps in each, with strong pockets of value in several. As to be expected variable condition. Could easily be broken down; some as standing units, while others into country folder collections. Tremendous retail potential. Take a look.Cat. Value: S.B. 6,500.00
Price Realized: $5,500.00
1215***Dealer’s better stock of primarily NH long sets carefully lined up on stockcards in small counterbooks. However, a surprisingly large number of them are short one or two NH stamps and the catalog value on the card has been reduced accordingly. Rounding out the lot are other stockcards and pages with LH sets and singles adding to the catalog value. Careful viewing will determine just how much you can use.Cat. Value: cat. 36,000.00
Price Realized: $6,500.00
1216*oEstate as received in seven large cartons. Includes 26 bulging Scott International albums that are custom organized to around the late 1990’s.

Value: S.B. 5,500.00
Price Realized: $4,750.00
1218**oClean dealer stock in 24 medium counterbooks. Primarily NH modern topical sets and souvenir sheets, with some earlier medium to better used items.

Price Realized: $3,750.00
1219*oGiant sized accumulation of stamps filling four large heavy cartons.

Price Realized: $4,750.00

Price Realized: $2,600.00
1224*oCollection from A-Z in four “Brownies” Scott internationals (1850-1939). A powerful old holding with many strong areas with most of the better material in mounts.

1227*oOne man’s lifetime collection in 17 Harris “Masterwork” albums. Thousands of familiar stamps neatly mounted up through 2000 with stronger pockets.

1231*oSmall carton of a couple of thousand stamps generally hinged on blank or album pages. Most are pre 1950 Western Europe and British area. Noticed a nice group of Belgium while repackaging.

Price Realized: $3,500.00

Two boxes are packed with huge quantities of stamps in glassines, on cards and loose, totally thousands of stamps. The last box is filled with nondescript foreign covers.

Price Realized: $1,400.00
1236*oOne man’s collection on Harris pages in four thick albums. Little, if any, strength in the early issues, but makes up for this lack in the later years. Strength begins with mint sets of the 1960’s and goes that way to 2008. Strong ROC, Canada, Germany, Finland and Great Britain. Huge face value and catalog that needs to be taken into consideration.
