1311*oHuge old time stamp collection in 13 bulging Scott International albums. Each is in major disrepair destined to soon fall apart from use. Tens of thousands of stamps included up to around 1972. The perpetrator was packet seller, soaker of mixtures, and all around knowledgeable collector/hoarder who added stamps to these albums to show off to others and sell from. Lots of value in the innumerable stamps. Mixed condition mint and used with just few sparse places throughout the albums. Strength in unexpected places where he developed an interest. Europe, Asia, and British Area are the stouter runs. Years of remounting or hundreds of folder collections is the answer for this one as the albums have long ago served their purpose.Cat. Value: S.B. 2,000.00
Price Realized: $2,800.00

Stamps in albums, envelopes, stockcards, boxes, folders etc. Life time accumulation from a true collector who enjoyed mass. Generally pre 2000. Collector could spend months going through it. A dealer could break it up many ways. Even the weakest cartons seem to be worth at least $100.00/$150.00. Worth digging through.Cat. Value: S.B. 1,800.00
Price Realized: $3,000.00
1314*oGroup of ten diverse country albums. Best by far is a Scott Specialty for West Germany and Berlin mostly complete for 1946 to 1979.

Value: S.B. 1,350.00

1319*Estate accumulation of better booklets all saved for a reason. The 52 booklets range from 1920-1980. Only slight duplication.
