COLLECTIONS AND ACCUMULATIONS — China
LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
952*oChina collection as collected in the 1980s offered intact as received. Lots of value starting in the large dragons with other classics through #78. Emphasis is on used material throughout with pages (all different types of albums with seeming duplicates) of ROC through 1998. Strong with small size inflation and early Peoples republic with hundreds of different stamps. Good back of the book with a few mint PRC to discover along with a 1962 ROC year set with a mint set of Emperors. A good opportunity to pick from an original collector made collection dormant for many years.Cat. Value: S.B. 2,600.00
Price Realized: $4,000.00
953*oChina 1878-1949 (part 1) collection of several hundred stamps in a clean Scott Specialty album. Mixed mint and used collection that begins with just a few classics and then moves haphazardly to 1949. Sparse in some areas while relatively full in others. Useful inflationary period. A great jump start to a China collection.Cat. Value: S.B. 700.00
Price Realized: $1,900.00
954*oChina and PRC collections on Scott Specialty pages in a pizza size box. Hundreds starting in the 1890s with Imperial, then Republican and finally Taiwan in the 1980s with back of the book. PRC begins in 1949 and ends in 1966 with mint issues. If you can read this language there could be some sleepers here. Worth reconnoitering.Cat. Value: S.B. 650.00
Price Realized: $950.00
955*oCVChina all types and eras in several small boxes filling a medium carton. Strength in PRC with a few hundred older types including reprints. Best of all are the dozen or so covers ROC, PRC, and old China found in the largest box. Important to view carefully as there are a few hidden surprises to be found.Cat. Value: S.B. 325.00
Price Realized: $850.00
