Price Realized: $3,500.00
121(*)oAn old time 1847-1930 primarily used collection in two Scott “Ne Plus Ultra” albums. The better part is the used section which includes numbers 1, 70, 75-78, 90, 96-98, 100, 119, 190 x2, 191 x2, and 310-312. Also holds early used commemoratives up to the middle values, a bit of a scattering of Washington-Franklins, airmails, Special Deliveries, Postage Due Parcel Post. The mint section holds a few low value Washington Franklins, 1920’s to 1930’s regulars and commems. Unfortunately tragedy struck the mint group. The collection was exposed to a chemical fire resulting in no gum and interesting color changelings. Also a couple small boxes of used sorted in envelopes, a few covers and old reference flyers thrown in for a bonus. Still much salvageable material.Cat. Value: S.B. 950.00
Price Realized: $850.00
