COLLECTIONS, ACCUMULATIONS, AND STOCKS — Venezuela
LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
412O*Venezuela collection of mainly mint stamps in sets filling two Filven Albums (published in Venezuela) in black mounts. Several thousand stamps lovingly mounted overfilling the now bulging albums. Spot checking resulted in a mixture of hinged and NH (around 30%). Sets are mainly complete even with the higher values missing from most collections. Airmails are especially strong even including a seemingly complete run of the Michel listed GN perfins. Not many classics. Appears to begin in earnest around 1920 and go strong to 1988. The albums have a hint of tropical storage not yet effecting the mint stamps. An opportunity for someone to own the most complete holding of mint Venezuela that we have offered in a long time.Cat. Value: S.B. 2000
Price Realized: $1,700.00
