LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
131*oAn eclectic consignment catch all assembly in two heavy cartons. Includes a mostly used collection in an old album of French origin, a modern postal card collection in White Ace binders, a set of 551-573 plus extra shades on album pages, stockpages of used 1¢//30¢ Banknotes, 19th and 20th century commemoratives and regular issues, a small group of 1950s and 1960s regular issues and airmail booklets, perf and imperf Park plate blocks, 649, 803//822, C19 mint sheets. Digging deeper we spotted mint 509-513 plate blocks, singles of 524, 547, 571, 572 x2, 573, 2602 plate strip of five plate # 23222, C10a x2, 572 NH block of four, used 523 x2, all on auction pages. Condition is mixed. Great grouping with plenty of material to be mined. Shipping weigh 68 lbs., call or email for a shipping quote.Cat. Value: S.B. 1,500.00
Price Realized: $1,600.00
132*Plate number coil collection 1981-1991 in a Scott Specialty album purchased by the owner at the height of desirability for the issues. Since then most have declined in value. Huge outlay of capital for this as of now failed investment. Begins with a loaded Scott Specialty collection with almost all of the 1981 issues in strips of five. Has all the 18 cent flags even the elusive Plate #6 in a strip of five. For some reason (perhaps the then ongoing debate of strips of three or five) this collection skips back to strips of three for just some of the 1985 issues. Huge 2015 catalog value (over $4,000.00 in $50.00 and up items). Large amount of ancillary face value in the post 1991 coils, probably to 2005, in the purchased packaging in two small pizza size boxes. Maybe now is the time to get in on the ground floor of this investment? At its true 2015 value.Cat. Value: S.B. 1,500.00
Price Realized: $1,700.00
133*oA carton full of useful collections and stocks. Includes a Minuteman album, stockpages with valuable Washington/Franklins, PNC’s on salescards, a plate block collection, postal cards, etc. Would be profitable to break down in smaller units and sell at shows or the internet.Cat. Value: S.B. 1,250.00
Price Realized: $850.00

The collection is of blocks mostly lower value regular issues, commemoratives staring in the 1920s. Used better numbers are 28, a possible 70b (needs a cert.), 98 x2, and a 77 on cover that has been slit on both sides.
