464*oRussia a two volume mostly used and (CTO) collection of several thousand different. The 1st album, a Minkus, starts with rather inconsequential Czarist period but starting with the late 1920s becomes extensive, as many pages most all the spaces are filled. This is so until the late 1970s when the 2nd album takes over (a Mystic) and still helpful but inherently less valuable to 1991.Cat. Value: S.B. 400.00
Price Realized: $325.00
465*oRussia collection in a Scott Specialty album to 1967. Sparse early but picks up steam around 1938. Well filled from there to the end with mainly CTO stamps (thousands). No airs or back of the book. Will fill a lot of spaces in a Russia collection or that section in your world collection. Did you see # 1327a used while viewing?Cat. Value: S.B. 400.00
