COLLECTIONS AND ACCUMULATIONS — British
LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
Lots 1207-1214 are a working stock from across the Commonwealth on overflowing manila stockpages grouped into 16 assorted stockbooks. They include both used and mint in Scott order through all reigns, starting alphabetically by colony, but ending in unfathomable groupings. Duplication sometimes runs to too many during the mid 20th century so crammed stacks of stamps may burst off the pages. Still a very useful stock for filling orders that merits cautious viewing.

Lots 1215-1220 are original collections of mostly mint British Africa, America, and Asia in clean Scott Specialty albums to the early 1970s. Each album is well populated with fresh stamps throughout, starting with good representation of used or mint QV, and progressing through each reign with more complete topical sets. They include many better values, but some have revenue cancels. While some of the collector’s last purchases in the early 1970s have not yet been mounted, these collections could easily be either filled in or mined.
