LotConditionDescriptionValue/Bidding
151O*A mainly used accumulation of mostly 19th and 20th century front of the book. Meticulously nestled in European size stock cards. Optimistically identified and cataloged with much duplication in some cases and condition issues in most. However, still solid value to be considered. A perfect assembly for an individual that would like to bulk up on catalog for their philatelic holding.Cat. Value: S.B. 950.00
Price Realized: $6,000.00
152**A 1950’s to 1990’s coil strip collection. Mainly in strips of 5 or larger with some plate numbers in the PNC areas. Includes some permit types and officials but still solid value spread throughout. Very clean with some duplication present. Good starter group with plenty of trade bait available.Cat. Value: S.B. 900.00
Price Realized: $1,050.00
153O*One man’s collection in two large cartons. Includes a few hundred 1960’s to 1990’s FDC’s with mainly multi-colored cachets, a simple three volume mostly mint collection, around $1700 in modern mint in sheet, booklet and scrap form. Finally we spotted a small flock of modern Federal Ducks amounting to over $400 face. Great starter assortment with plenty of expansion possibilities.Cat. Value: S.B. 800.00
Price Realized: $1,050.00
154O*An accumulation from an old time customer from the Motor City area. Many hundred mostly used lower priced items sorted and housed in sales pages.

Price Realized: $1,700.00
155O*One man’s US collection as received. Fills one complete large carton. Most of the value is in three “Heirloom” albums. Contains just a few earlies, good banknotes with a couple 90 centers, questionable Washington/Franklins, mint Kansas/Nebraskas, and strong airs and BOB. Enough face for consideration. Haphazardly organized with entirely too much ancillary material. Mixed condition. A great lot to break down to recycle.Cat. Value: S.B. 750.00
Price Realized: $1,050.00
156***US accumulation of beginner albums and scrap postage as consigned. Put together 1948-1985. Stored haphazardly over the years with many of the sheets now damaged. Sheets range from 1 cent through 20 cents with the 3-8 cent range holding the bulk of the value. Plate blocks, multiples, plate blocks, and scrap make up the rest. Thins, missing margins, missing stamps, thins, no gum, etc. are all present. Best is probably the $300.00 face in Duck stamps in a small pizza size box. Our estimate of around $2,000 face takes all of this into account. The albums are all beginners with very little to offer other than their reclaimable face. Four heavy cartons (100 pounds shipping) all in need of close inspection before conjuring up a bid. As is as found, offered reasonably.Cat. Value: S.B. 750.00
Price Realized: $1,400.00

Lots of face (perhaps $1250.00 or more) altogether that includes #630 mint dist. gum, 834 x2, 1053 x2, a mint sheet file, three stockbooks, and a small stack of Vario pages each with enough US face for a count.

Price Realized: $1,250.00

Price Realized: $1,200.00
159O*CVTwo cartons of mint and used run off from a successful Midwest dealer clean out. More value in the mint than used, with the bulk of that in the face value of the accumulated sheets and scrap hiding throughout the two cartons.

And for you who love Christmas seals, you’ll find a few of that as well. Too much fun for very little. Approximant shipping weight is 400 lbs., call or email for rate quote.Cat. Value: S.B. 500.00
