A remarkably near-complete collection of mint and used souvenir sheets issued between 1934-80 housed in a Minkus 2-post binder with dust jacket. Starts with singles (only) from the National Anthem sheets, but then gets into a steady offering of one mint and one used copy of most of the souvenir sheets issued in the next 40+ years. Includes 434a, 556, 719, 1129a, 1134/1134a, 2190 (imperforate). In case this isn’t special enough, this collection includes lots of material found in Scott footnotes, such as "1939/1940 World’s Fair" overprints in a range of styles and colours and the 1943 London Exhibition souvenir sheet. More modern issues often have an example of the imperforate sheet. The album concludes with a number of pages with multiples, showpieces and presentation cards (noted a 1945 National uprising issue on card - both mint and used), which will add eye appeal to any collection. Earlier mint are Hinged, overall condition is remarkable. A rare opportunity to get so many souvenir sheets at one time. Well worth the conservative estimated value. Estimate =
