New Imperial Album Part #2, with pages up to 1936 covering Mauritius to Zululand. A lovely collection of classic issues, both mint and used with coverage of each colony ranging from sparse to well represented. There is a nice groups of Morocco Agencies overprints, Natal, Canadian provinces (New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia) and Australian states (New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria). We noted some better items from New Zealand, some attractive Rhodesia, St.Helena revalues and two used GeoV commemorative high values from St. Lucia (includes #106 on a lovely piece, catalogues US$100.00). The Straits Settlements section is followed by a very interesting "mixed bag" of Malayan States. There are lots of $5-$40 stamps everywhere, with many of the cheaper issues being selected for their cancel. Expect some faults here and there, which is to be expected with a collection of this age. Just over 1500 stamps in total. The album has a minor split inside front cover. Estimate =
