Collection that on first glance makes you appreciate that the collector did not see the worth in investing in an expensive album, but did have a good eye for detail on the stamps. An intriguing collection of earlier British material, starting with a nearly 4-margin Penny black and with a nice representation of classic Victorian-era issues. Includes better with individual catalogue values up to $400.00. Besides being very complete, there is lots of cancel potential, including more dated cancels than are normally seen. A random check of issues indicates that the items are generally properly identified on the pages. Edward VII issues are fairly complete up to the 5/-, with duplication selected for different shades (but catalogued as the cheapest). The GeoV Seahorses gallop up to the 10/- denomination and are followed by hundreds of GeoVI and Elizabethan era issues up to the mid-1990’s. Only catalogued to the end of GeoV, with visibly damaged items not counted. Owner’s 2024 Scott US$12,997.30 =
