36 TOTAL IMAGES | 96 | O | Postmark Lover’s Paradise. Outstanding postmark and cancel collection of several thousand stamps from around the world, mainly nineteenth and early twentieth century. Everything is rudimentarily organized, carefully hinged onto attractive homemade pages, and housed in six three-ring binders. Page after page of choice used classics with clear full or partial postmarks and cancels. Postally used or canceled-to-order. We noted diversity of cities and dates, with a bonanza of numerical postmarks. Special attention is paid to local post office traditions and philatelic desirability. Catalog value of the stamps alone is many thousands, and the out-of-the-ordinary clarity of the postmarks and cancels only adds to overall retail value. | Cat.
