Algeria #21, 22 Full Sheets. A trio of large multiples including full sheets of 100 of both the 45c and 50c, plus a partial sheet of 50 of the 50c value, all overprint issues from the 1924-1926 series (overprinted on French stamps). Of particular issue is the sheet format, which gives both gutter-pairs and inter-pane plate numbers. An eye-catching group, all with clean Never Hinged gum, but we did note several spots of separation on the sheets (still holding together well for near 100 years old). Catalogued as single stamps only, with no premium given for the sheets / gutter pairs, plate numbers etc. 2024 Scott US$415.00 =

Andorra - French Administration. The balance of a dealer’s holding that we have been selling off over the past year. This was partially in the process of being worked, and we are offering it as-received. There is a 16-page stockbook with a group of mint postage dues, a courier folder with some circa 1992 "new issues" still in their original glassines. There is an assortment of about 100 unaddressed, cacheted first day covers circa 1963-1972, a small box contains a couple hundred "102" cards with a stock identified by Scott and Michel (ignore the pricing) with mostly mint issues up to the early 2000’s. Finally, there is a double-sided stockpage with a wide range of mint issues and even a deluxe proof of the 18fr (#122). Lots of duplication here. Expect some of the earlier material to be Hinged, otherwise condition is very clean. Estimate =

Antigua and Bahamas - With a bit of Barbuda and Barbados on trimmed "Minkus" album pages with issues from King George V to about 1971. A total of 272 mint and used stamps. Better Antigua includes the King George VI set to £1 and Queen Elizabeth to $4.80 (both mint). The Bahamas includes King George VI definitives to 5/-, "Seal of the Colony" to 2/- (both used), mint King George 1948 set to 5/- and the first two "long" QEII sets to £1. This collection was meticulously catalogued in 2009, and a thorough check has shown that this is just about a perfect match with the current catalogue value. Owner’s older 2009 Scott US$516.45 =

Austria - Tirol Parcel Control stamps issued between 1919-1921, as a method to control the export of parcels with goods, which was temporarily forbidden after the Great War. The Tyrolean government ordered these labels to use the small labels for postal parcels and the larger ones for railway parcels. These are not listed in Scott and are considered locals. This wholesale lot of about 30 panes/large blocks/multiples (with 25 - 50 stamps in a complete pane - probably 1000 stamps in total). Includes both designs, in mint, cancelled to order and with revaluations. The mint sheet file that houses them is done, and some of the panes are adhered to each other, others to the file. Some appear that they will come clean fairly easily, others will require soaking. A terrific study opportunity. Estimate =

Bermuda #1/456. Mounted mint and used collection from Queen Victoria up to 1980. Starts off with some assorted stamps, including a couple of attractive blocks with plate number. The King George V has a hit and miss group of common and better singles. The collection gets more complete in the King George VI era, with a few nice used keyplates. The Elizabethan era often has a mint set, followed by a used set on the following page, until about 1976 when the issues are typically mint only (including a couple of souvenir sheets). Overall condition is excellent. The little duplication is probably due to possible shade differences. Mint issues are in black mounts and are never hinged after 1970. Better singles include #125, #125a, #127a (all used) and #162 (both mint and used). Individual catalogue values up to $60.00 a stamp. All in a pair of red Rapkin springback binders.

Stanley Gibbons lists more shades than Scott, we have counted at the lowest values only.

British Caribbean - Part 1: Amongst the most popular groupings that have come from this collector. He loved the stamps and Islands of the Caribbean (and British Honduras/Belize) and bought almost everything he could get his hands on, and then set them aside. Includes purchases from auction houses, dealers and the local post offices, there is value in this chaos. The Belize and British Honduras material includes used classics to modern mint (with great topical interest such as birds and butterflies, and some large blocks and panes of mint). There is also Antigua (with and without Barbuda), some very nice Montserrat, British Virgin Island, St. Kitts and Nevis, Cayman Islands and a few multi-colony assortments. There is an attractive group of King George V issues of Turks & Caicos Islands, still on its original auction card. Barbados is represented with blocks of the 1995 WWII anniversary issue (planes).

Starting with a small box of a "bit of everything" on "102" cards / glassine envelopes, etc. with a very nice assortment of dealer material, that appears to have been priced in the 1980’s with lots of items in the $10.00-$20.00 range. This is followed by a pair of battered Scott Specialty albums containing an array of mint and used early Elizabethan sets, partial sets and singles.

British Honduras #B1-B5. Registered cover / OHMS envelope sent to Toronto with a complete set of the only semi-postal series issued by British Honduras. These overprinted stamps raised funds to provide relief for the city of Belize which was levelled by a hurricane. The stamps are hard enough to find used, with a Scott catalogue value of US$112.50. However, Stanley Gibbons catalogues them with a price of £ 110.00 with a premium of "at least 10x" for usage on cover, which would bring this to a nearly $1500.00 cover.

British South Africa Company/Rhodesia #43-49. A lovely, mint Hinged array of the 1896 Matabele Rebellion Provisionals overprinted on Cape of Good Hope. This is a compete run from ½p to 1/, with extras and includes a very interesting horizontal shift on one ½p resulting in a split overprint (counted as regular in the cat. value). Cut off from postal authorities in Salisbury by the Rebellion, the Bulawayo post office ordered these overprints from the Cape, which it still had communication, to avoid running out of supply. They were used in Bulawayo during the uprising and then later elsewhere. The overprint plate had six different clichés; the consignor has not checked for these, but no doubt several clichés are present here. 12 stamps in total, generally Fine to Very Fine (with one rounded corner on one 4p noted for the record).
