1193*oSwitzerland small aggregation of “better” in a small box that an ardent collector put away to process later.

1195*oSwitzerland collection in a White Ace album 1854-1969. Begins with a representative group of “seated Helvetias” and proceeds in a well filled manner up to the end. Many of the pages are shingled with one used stamp over top the others up to five of a kind. Good BOB, especially postage due issues. Loads of intermediate value in the substantial catalog value with only the higher values missing for completion. Lots of material to harvest for stock.Cat. Value: S.B. 450.00
Price Realized: $475.00
1196*oSwitzerland parallel mint and used collection in two Scott Specialty albums to 1977. Poor storage has somewhat warped the binders and imparted a musty smell but the stamps are in better than average condition. Used highlights include a smattering of classics, #303-305, and a couple of souvenir sheets. While the strength of the mint is an abundance of mint sets 1943-1977. Easily integrated.Cat. Value: S.B. 325.00
Price Realized: $600.00
