Eclectic mix of album pages holds a powerful, thorough collection. Starts with some better Prince Carol issues, including different colours and perforations, then maintains a remarkably complete run into the 20th century with sets and singles to $25.00 throughout. One highlight is a complete set of the 1903 New Post Office set (catalogues $214.25) and a mint set of the 1906 General Exposition (catalogues $219.75). The material is a bit sparser in the 1930’s-1940’s, but regains strength in 1956 with the animal set #1082-1093 (mint) and is a bit hit or miss up to 1965, noting a number of issues with topical interest (e.g. sports, space, animals). There are some nice used semi-postals, and postage dues, plus a scattering of other back of the book issues. Expect some minor faults in early issues, but the overall condition is better than average. About 700 mostly different stamps in total. Estimate =
