Middle East. Using a broad interpretation of where this region starts and finishes, this is an accumulation of random purchases that the consignor assembled over a number of years (decades). This material is not often seen locally and there is definitely the potential for hidden specialized items for the prudent collector. Includes a mounted collection of Afghanistan, several bits of Egypt (including some souvenir sheets) / UAR / Palestine (some Gaza cancels and multiples of the 1958 UN Human rights issue), Aden, lots of Iran (from classics, the Shah’s 1950 birthday, and some officials, up to sheet stock of post-Revolution issues) and some 1980’s Oman. There is also some Yemen, a bit of Lebanon (1949 UPU souvenir sheet and a modern presentation folder) and what lot from this part of the world would be complete without some Abu Dhabi, Fujeria, Dubai, etc, with colourful topical sheetlets. A much better than average group of material and overall condition looks decent. Estimate =
