14 TOTAL IMAGES		258O*A pair of Scott Specialty albums – one of which covers Australia and the other the States and Dependencies. The first is the more valuable with Roos, George V Heads and early commemoratives mostly used. From Scott 180 to 1300, the collection is almost entirely mint in mounts and apparently complete. Airs, useful dues, officials and Antarctic Territory round out the album. The Dependencies album is less well filled but has useful Christmas Island, Cocos, and Papua but not much Australian States. Stamps are affixed in both with a mixture of hinges, mounts and tape (archival?). With care, the tape is easily removed from stamps mounted using it and we saw no detrimental effect to either stamps or album pages. However, it is probably prudent to remount those stamps with a more philatelically friendly method. All told, a nice lot with better items and a significant face count.Cat. Value: S.B. 500.00
