Worldwide - Desktop A. We aren’t exaggerating when we say that these box lots of loose stamps are literally from sweeping off the top of a collector’s desk. We show this by what we removed from this lot: id cards, a calculator, a spark plug, keys, photos etc. It’s hard to believe that this collector was not a dealer, given the wide range of material that is here. Includes some 19th century items, more cinderellas/revenues and souvenir sheets than are normally seen in these types of lots. The number of different countries from which this material originates is amazing. On and off paper, lots of "102" cards and glassines. More used than mint, some duplication. Perfect for expanding your philatelic horizons. Filing (overfilling) a bankers box. Estimate =

Worldwide - Desktop B. From the same desk, but it must have included the drawers as well, or the desk must have been piled deep with stamps! Includes some 19th century items, a number of souvenir sheets. This apparently came from the "more organized" part of the desk, as there was some attempt to sort material (or the collector hadn’t got around to taking everything apart. The number of different countries from which this material originates is amazing - it’s hard to believe that this person wasn’t a dealer. On and off paper, lots of "102" cards and glassines.

Worldwide - Interesting balance of a consignment, with much better American material than we normally see (such as mint pre-1930’s better including up to the 30c and 50c Washington-Franklin), and some 19th century used that has potential (all in a circa 1960 "Coronet" album). There are a couple of worldwide albums, including a small format 1930 Stanley Gibbons "Improved" album, plus a couple of stockbooks (one being a 64-page Uni-Safe with a collection of recent WWII anniversary material from around the British Commonwealth). There is a small stockbook with some Netherlands and colonies, finishing off with some potential packed album pages, stockcards and loose material from all over, but notrf South Africa, Poland, Japan, Great Britain. For the treasure hunter. Estimate =

Worldwide - Many thousands of off-paper stamps filling a bankers box. These are the balance of an estate, basically where everything that isn’t sorted gets slid into the box. This means that there is material from all around the world, over many different eras, and with some better material mixed in with the common. There is a large ziplok bag filled with wholesale Hungary back to the early 20th century. Beyond that, there is a bit of organization in envelopes by stamp or country. This is the minority, as generally there is just randomness. Perfect to dump on the table when and disrupt the traditional eating area for a couple weeks. Estimate =

Worldwide - Old meets new in this consignment balance filling a U-Haul box. The old includes five binders with album pages, a couple dozen manila stockpages and 40 Lighthouse black stockpages with a diverse group of mainly older issues, over 10,000 stamps here (yes, somebody counted them!). There is an additional "Triumph" album (packed, but uncounted), plus the remnants of a mounted Spanish collection with pages up to 1966, including some of the interesting material of the early Franco period, plus a couple of small stockbooks with more material from Spain. The new is a couple of animal topical lots from the World Wildlife Fund, circa 1990, with one binder in slipcover filled with first day covers, the second is a tall album with display cards (looks like a FDC or maxi-card, but is uncancelled). As these were fundraisers, they had significant upfront cost. Estimate =

Worldwide - Part 1 of an 8 volume Scott International album collection. This section is a single volume covering United States plus "A" to "G" countries running up to 1939. The binder and the pages have been heavily loved, but you will be more interested in the contents. Significantly filled with more hits than misses amongst the countries here, for example from the "A" countries we noted Abyssinia, Armenia, Algeria, Angola, Argentina, Australia and Austria. Lots of Europe (and its colonies), there is a bit of Latin America and the China section should be checked out. Thousands of mostly used stamps here, perfect for the collector of "classics".

Significantly filled with more hits than misses amongst the countries here, we noted better: Hungary, India, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Netherlands, Persia, Portugal (with many from its colonies), Romania, Thailand, Switzerland, but there are many other worthwhile smaller sections, such as Hong Kong, British Caribbean, Australian States, Jamaica, just to name a few.

Worldwide - Part 3 of an 8-volume Scott International album collection. Two volumes this time, covering the complete world for issues between 1940 to 1949. Honestly, almost all the stamps are in a single album, with a few thousand stamps from the World War II era, with the meat of the group being the King George VI issues from the British Commonwealth. Still more used than mint, but with a bit more mint appearing. Still strong in Europe and colonies, with scattered better, including some interesting China. The second "Part II" album was probably the original album for this era, as the pages only go up to 1946. Most of the stamps have been transferred over to the other book, but it will give you a few more stamps and a second "Part II" binder. Estimate =

Worldwide - Part 4, the last lot of an 8-volume Scott International album collection. This lot consists of four volumes, covering the complete world for issues between 1950 to 1965. Heavily populated albums, but from a time when used stamps are mostly common. However, three of the four albums are in good shape (one is a bit warped from poor storage), and there could be better items that we missed. There are no particular areas of strength, as there are so many stamps from so many countries. The estimate is less than what the binders would set you back, let alone the pages and all those stamps. Binders are labelled "Part III" to "Part VI", but the pages are to part V (and there may be some overlap in the pages). Estimate =

Worldwide - Philatelic Presentation Books. Group of 55 Delegate or VIP Presentation folders from a range of UPU or other international postal congresses 1950-1973. Out of about 55 folders, if there is any concentration, it would be India, Switzerland and Germany. Otherwise there are one or two each from Morocco, Nepal, Denmark, Bulgaria, Austria, United States, Israel, Spain, Vatican, Italy, Iceland, Norway, Finland, Ethiopia, Mexico, Panama, Dominica, Columbia and Venezuela. Some have loose stamps that have come out of their original spot - and we expect that a few (probably cheaper) stamps have fallen out. Not a huge concern as the folders are the difficult part to find. The two Centennial folders from Canada are heavily damaged (sadly), still some very difficult to find material here which will help round out your collection. Estimate =

Worldwide - Stamps, more stamps and even more stamps are overfilling this banker’s box. Some on paper, some off, some in glassines (often with different contents than what is indicated on the outside) and a few small stockcards. Another estate balance where everything that was left over and not mounted got (literally) scooped into this box, for a very patient person (or an entire stamp club) to work their way through. Mostly 20th century material, with pretty much something from everywhere. Used, some mint. A bit of topical or postmark potential. Some duplication is to be expected. Estimate =

Worldwide - The difference with this banker’s box that is filled with mostly loose, off-paper stamps, is that unlike most of other similar boxes, which are collector created, this one is dealer created. This box sat on the floor, at the end of his desk, and anything that he didn’t feel like dealing with went into the box. Because it was built up over the years, the density is particularly notable - this will take a substantial amount of time to go through, even once. Besides the usual wide range of material, we noted some Cinderella and "back of the book" and some souvenir sheets and sheetlets here. Lotted as received. Estimate =

Worldwide - This box of albums and stockbooks has been sitting for many years, so don’t expect to see many stamps issued after 1980. In no particular order, there is a 16-page stockbook with some Cyprus, Malta, Ireland and Great Britain, followed by a 32-page stockbook with Great Britain, Hong Kong and Canada. There are two early 20th century "Imperial" albums, one volume is "Foreign Countries", the other is worldwide "Envelopes and Wrappers", packed with many cut squares from all over (not all are mounted). There is a Minkus "Czechoslovakia" album but not a lot of pages. There is an older, but elegant, 64-page Minkus stockbook packed with stamps from across the world. There is a "ledger-style" folder with lots of mounted stamps, and a few loose album pages that includes some earlier GB (such as penny-reds) and early India. More used than mint, not a lot of duplication, but work will be required to tame this lot. Estimate = $150.00

Worldwide - Trust us. There is no way that any number of photos can capture the breadth of this lot, being the balance of a consignment. There are two worldwide albums, one an "International" album from 1920 with a couple of thousand "classics", the second being a 1960’s album that pales a bit in comparison. Continuing on with a large stationery box filled with stamps sorted by country or on approval pages (lots of Poland and Romania here), and a second box packed with glassine envelopes with a much wider range of country groupings. There is a battered stockbook with a used stock with lots of KGV-KGVI British Commonwealth issues, and its less organized twin. There is a "sampler" book with a few stamps from many different non-Commonwealth countries (circa 1952), and a few loose stock and album pages. The "sleeper" in the group may be a small brown box buried in the middle of all this with a couple of good-sized handfuls of dealer stock on "102" cards - probably priced in the 1980’s, but with an eclectic mix of items, including some potentially better European (as identified by Michel).

Worldwide - We didn’t want to fill this banker’s box much more, as the contents are starting to push back on anything new being added. This is another multi-source "on and off" paper lots, complete with country sorted envelopes, glassines that have rightfully become so popular in the auction. Many thousands of stamps here. Usually there is no theme to these lots, but we did see a small concentration of Israel, otherwise the 99 other countries that are likely represented here will just have to present themselves as you sort. Lots of treasures to be found, one item that made itself known, is a strip of 5 of the Great Britain £10 "Britannia" postally used on piece. There is a bit more on-paper than normally seen in these lots, but the majority of the stamps are off paper and "free flying".

Worldwide Supplies - Diverse offering of 13 used stockbooks ranging from 16 to 64 pages, with a mix of black or white pages and several different colour covers. Many manufacturers here, such as Lighthouse, Uni-Safe, Alligator, Ryam(?) and Filex. Some are near new, a couple have edge or spine damage, but should be repairable and will still do the job in the meantime. The only "hitch" with these is that many still have their original holdings in them (mostly Europe or British Commonwealth), which you can look at as a bonus, or as a minor price to pay to get some nice stockbooks at well below retail. Estimate =
| $140.00 |
