737CVTail end of the non stamp part of an important old time stock “especially for you”.

739CVAccumulation of over 2,200 covers and cards in two banker’s boxes. Around half are commercial covers with a few hundred early 1900s India. European countries primarily makes up the rest. The other half consists of mainly first day covers with a European flair starting around/after 1920. Along for the journey are around 100 postcards from the 1920s to the 1950s. Ultimate destination is a dollar table after culling of the better ones.Cat. Value: S.B. 800.00
Price Realized: $450.00
740CVThree monstrous cartons containing all of one man’s covers. Completely heaped and squashed together with around 6, 000 (conservative estimate) in total. All eras and the whole world included. Looks like mainly a dollar table event especially if one were to dump it out all at once on a table. Hard to figure, but this bottomless pit of covers has to be a money maker at any large bourse.Cat. Value: S.B. 600.00
Price Realized: $800.00
741CVMainly mint accumulation of worldwide postal stationery from the turn of the last century filling two small cartons. Many ornate South America along with some used Germany are the highlights.

Price Realized: $500.00
742CVSmall carton containing just over 400 covers in beat up cover albums. Haphazardly saved, there are better covers amongst the awful. Condition problems abound with only the slightest surprises. Enough postal history to make this holding worthwhile.Cat. Value: S.B. 425.00
Price Realized: $2,200.00
