Aden #1-9. British Administration. Mint Never Hinged and absolutely stunning group of the first 9 "Dhow" issues from the 1937 series, each in a lower inscription -Thomas De La Rue & Company Limited. London - plate margin pair. While there are 3 additional higher values in the set (#10-12), they are all very high value (the extra three pairs would catalogue US$2050.00 alone). A very nice "extra" to showcase this attractive issue. 2023 Scott US$272.00 =

Argentina #1/675 plus Back of the Book. Mint and (mostly) used collection of regular issues and lots of ‘back of the book", especially overprinted Officials on cut-down Yvert pages in a lovely black Stanley Gibbons springback binder. The interesting first page includes #1 and #5 used mixed amongst some of the normal dubious material often seen from this period. There is a "Rivadavia" duo overprinted "Muestra" and it is hit or miss to 1958, including a couple of souvenir sheets. There is a bit of airmail and then a couple hundred "Ministry" overprinted with an alphabet soup of various abbreviations to signify one of over a dozen different government agencies. Overall, the condition appears to be decent. Several hundred stamps. Most appear to be more common, but research could turn up some better items. Estimate =

Australia - Page of mint King George V "Heads" and early commemoratives with some official "OS" perfins. Fresh appearance, most are mint never hinged, with a touch of even toning and some penciled catalogue numbers. Unchecked for perforations or watermarks.

Australia - Two £1 and four 10/- ‘Roos? That should indicate that this is not your usual consignment balance bankers box. Yes, there is lots of common material, especially from the decimal era, but there is a nice 1968 series Stanley Gibbons 4-ring binder and a well-loved 64-page Lighthouse stockbook. Plus, there are album pages, envelopes, presentation packs, "102" cards and then a small group of earlier issues including some ‘Roos, some early perfins (both "OS" and private) and a few officials to go with the airmails, mixed in with some Australian Antarctic Territory material. Expect the condition to be all over the place, and for there to be a moderate amount of duplication. Estimate =

Australia and Australian Antarctic Territory - Estate balance. A diverse offering which includes a large binder of manila stockpages covering "Roos to about year 2000 with some back of the book, a stash of AAT issues including partial collections, a near new 16-page stockbook and misc loose items. There is also a stash of loose glassines and dealer cards that includes some "States" material, with cancels and other "odds and ends" (noted a used trio of O12-O14 - catalogues $82.50). If you are looking for an eye-catching piece, there are a few large used blocks of #J83, totaling 40 copies (catalogue $8.50 each). Great potential here. Estimate =

Austria - Two volume Austrian holding, starting with a Minkus album with pages to 1981 and with a lovely selection of mint, used (and sometimes both), including lots of "back of the book", noting some better semi-postals and airmails. The album concludes with occupied or administered areas such as Turkey, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The collector has tucked in many duplicates under other mounted stamps, often for nice cancels, but who knows what else could be here. The second value is a large three ring binder with what appears to be the collector’s 20th century duplicates, with thousands more stamps here to increase your enjoyment. These types of lots do not come around often. Estimate =

Belgian Congo #14/62. A pair of stockpages with 45 different, mostly used, examples from the various pictorial issues from 1894-1915. The #14 and #33-35 are mint, the rest are used. Includes different perforations, colours, designs, etc. Most notable is the #29 (has a bit of a rounded corner, which may be "natural" from the perforation process) and #30. What makes this lot even better is that most of the used examples were selected for the desirability of their postmark, so even if you already have some or all these stamps, check them to potentially upgrade your collection. A couple have owner’s markings on them. Total 2023 Scott US$475.70 =

An attractive range of singles, sets, overprints, with some good back of the book. There is a mint (used and very lightly hinged) semi-postal souvenir sheet B26, airmail sheetlet C11a and the Congo overprints. The used includes high denominations with catalogue values to $20.00 each and many with nice cancels. The front of the collection catalogues US$446.65. And if you like cancels, look to the back of the binder, with several black stockpages and some "map" pages showing location of towns. These are stunning cancellations, there are about 150 of them, and not catalogued. Estimate =

British Commonwealth - Bankers box filled with random, loose and varied album pages from a variety of sources. Lots of Caribbean, with some African and to a lesser extent, Oceanic colonies. We only took a quick look into this lot, and noted a range of mint and used, with a bit back to Queen Victoria mostly stopping by 1980, with the occasional obviously better item (e.g. Montserrat 1948 Royal Wedding), but this will need a collector/harvester to pull out its best. The balance of an estate. Offered as received. Estimate =

We noted Antigua, Bermuda (George VI "Keyplates" to 5/-), British Honduras, Cayman Islands, Dominica, Grenada, Jamaica, Leeward Islands, some from "the Saints", Trinidad, etc. A bit "hit or miss" throughout, with more used than mint. Lots of common items and short sets, but with better singles and nice cancels noted. If particular interests is a Guyana 24c double overprint on a mint single, unfortunately might need to be soaked to remove it from the page, listed in Gibbons at £200.00). Hundreds of stamps and an album in excellent condition (binder alone retails $80.00). Estimate =

British Commonwealth - Decent material that is so chaotic and disorganized that the previous owner put this off long enough to eventually declare "enough, can’t do it". This lot of Pacific Islands (or Oceania) has nice material in plain sight, but it will need a collector with more time and patience than the previous owner could spare. Mint and used, light duplication, going back to the early 20th century with some overprints for New Zealand-administered islands (with Admirals to 3/-), up to about 1990. Noted Fiji, Papua New Guinea (including a 10/- bird overprinted "Specimen"), Tuvalu, New Hebrides, Pitcairn Islands, Tonga, Norfolk, Christmas, Aitutaki, Kiribati and the list goes on (no Australia or NZ). Lastly, there is a 64-page stockbook, album pages, presentation packs, glassines/envelopes. A wonderful opportunity here for the intrepid sorter. Estimate =

Canada #4/611. Minkus pages with a great exploration of the first 100+ years of Canadian stamp issuance. Includes a 3p beaver with three nice margins, some "Cents", a few Large and Small Queens, Jubilees from the 1/2c to 50c (mostly mint), with some mint and used Victorian, Edward VII and Quebec issues. After the Admiral set, most sets are fairly complete, with the lower denominations often being mint, such as the KGV Scroll, Arch, issues. There are multiple mint dollars such as the Destroyer, Champlain, Ferry, Fishing. No "back of the book", but there is a bit of duplication where the collector has hinged extra stamps in, underneath. There are a few nice cancels noted. The biggest challenge for this collection is the condition, which is diverse. Much of the earlier is faulty, the mint heavily hinged, but this is mixed in with a number of really nice clean singles here and there. The catalogue is enormous, but we have decided to give this an estimated value. Estimate =

Canada #1818/1834. Millennium issue USED STOCK of 825 stamps, neatly laid out on Vario stockpages by issue (the stockpages alone demand a premium!). While there are some missing issues and these are not in complete sets, this offers a great chance to amalgamate these with your current holdings to assemble complete sets. These stamps were so hard to find at time of issue, with used copies often selling for over the mint face value! We note that the postmarks of these are well above average, which means that lesser copies were removed by the original collector to create a "cream of the crop" offering.

Canada - Teal tub of treasures?!? A 68-litre rubbermaid bin packed with loose stamps, kiloware, baggies, envelopes, bundleware, album and stock pages. We noted a bit of Small Queens, up to the turn of the next century, with several Grizzlies. There are individual items of value, cancel and variety potential, probably from over a dozen different sources, but needing someone who has the patience to sort the wheat from the chaff. Many thousands of stamps, enormous catalogue value, moderate to heavy duplication is to be expected. Offered as received. Estimate =

Canada Cancels - Alberta post marks Elizabethan-era holding in four parts. There is a mounted collection of Calgary and Edmonton sub offices and slogan cancels on stamp, piece and receipt, with many rubber hand cancels which are very difficult to find. Next is a nice group of split-ring cancels, mostly on piece or stamp, covering much of the province (could be some better towns lurking here). There is a fragment of a mounted post office collection here, with details of the post office and a few modern cancels (only covers post offices starting with "AR"). Finally, there is a bundle of registered covers from "A" to "C" post offices (no Calgary), sent to the Health insurance plan, most 1974-84 with registration and early POCON markings (these may take some patience to remove from the homemade album). Terrific for the post mark collector. Estimate =

Canada Cancels - Free-for-all cancel extravaganza with half the box consisting of a few thousand stamps and most selected for their cancel, with very little organization.

Canada Cancels - Trio of "open face" red dealer boxes with "102" cards, with an estimated 1500 "102" cards inside of them, each with a single stamp, with many being "socked on the nose", and many others being easily readable. Includes some King George VI material and we didn’t see any stamps past 2000. Given the deterioration of the rubber bands that were holding the little bundles together, this group hasn’t seen the light of day for many years. The only downside to this lot is the lack of organization. It looks like most of the cancels are Alberta, BC and Ontario, but there are pockets of other provinces. Many of the cards include the Scott number of the stamp, and the name of the town and province written in pencil. Estimate =

Canada Covers - Alberta Postal History. A modern marvel of 958x special Post Office "Pictorial" illustrated postmark covers from the 2005-2019 period, organized alphabetically within two shoeboxes. These illustrated postmarks were often used to mark anniversaries or prominent tourist attractions within these small towns (such as a Star Trek postmark for Vulcan AB). Duplicated throughout, with the collector often aiming to get at least two from each town. These were often only able to be acquired by collectors by sending in self-addressed stamped envelopes to these Post Offices. A mountain of time (and postage) went into assembling this offering.

Canada Covers - BC British Columbia Postal History. A "modern" and marvelous collection of 119 covers, all postmarked 2014-2018 from Post Offices across the Province. What makes this selection so enthralling is that these covers were all made a by a collector to feature new "Retail Centre" Post Offices only, with many Post Office names we have never seen or heard of before! While we can't name them all here, some notables were "Mt.Lehman Center P.O. Great Canadian Dollar Store", "Seven Oaks P.O. Sheffield Express", "High Street P.O. London Drugs", "Bainbridge P.O. Burnaby", "Ocean Grove P.O. Campbell River", "Tyee P.O. Campbell River", "Askew Creek P.O. Chemainus", "Blue Mountain P.O. Coquitlam" etc. There is very little recorded on these modern postmarks, so much of what is out there is unknown. Many of these modern Post Offices are only open for short periods, or have their P.O. hammers switched out regularly. A great opportunity for the BC postmark hound. Estimate =

A collector's ambitious assembly of 581 covers from the 2013-2019 period, organized alphabetically in a shoebox, acquired by mailing in self-addressed stamped envelopes to Post Offices across the Province to acquire a run of "modern" postmarks. Lightly duplicated (as the collector often wanted two examples), but a marvelous run of modern POCON, Retail Centre and Postal Outlet postmarks. Many of these postmarks were only used for short-periods before either the Post Office outlet changed location (or "hammer").

Canadian Provinces - A very attractive holding of the four colonies from the Atlantic provinces plus BC, mounted on an assortment of pages. The Newfoundland goes back to #11A, the early is mostly used, and the mint heavily hinged (as often seen), with decent representation of the Cabot, Royal Family, Gilbert and Trail of the Caribou sets, typically in a mix of mint and used, with some duplicates tucked in. The 1930’s issues are fairly complete, with some air mail and postage dues. BC, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and PEI are all here too, in varying degrees. The condition throughout is very mixed, especially amongst the higher catalogue value stamps. Still, there is value here at every corner, perfect to cherry pick to improve your own collection.

China -
Estate balance A: From what we can tell, in the 1970s and early 1980s this collector bought lots of collections of China, took out the 19th century material and set aside the pre-1950 issues for a later day that never happened. In the intervening 40 years, this material has appreciated significantly. There are several partial mounted collections and a number of envelopes and glassines (many of which are not properly labelled). Lots of inflation, provincial overprints and better issues up to $90.00 catalogue value. Moderate to heavy duplication, lots of cancel interest.

China - Estate balance B: From what we can tell, in the 1970s and early 1980s this collector bought lots of collections of China, took out the 19th century material and set aside the pre-1950 issues for a later day that never happened. In the intervening 40 years, this material has appreciated significantly. There are several partial mounted collections and a number of envelopes and glassines (many of which are not properly labelled).

China - Part A: Amongst the most popular lots on the bidboard are these consignment or estate bundles of older holdings of China (including the later Republic and PRC issues), as most of them were accumulated at a time when this material was under appreciated. Notably random, disorganized, but with enough potential here or there, including better issues, cancels and unidentified varieties that could be lurking. This bundle meets those criteria perfectly with a handful of stock and album pages, with some glassines and a little bit of loose material, includes a couple more recent FDCs. Not much after 2000, most is pre-1980. Noted souvenir sheet #471 (filler), but other goodies are likely lurking. Estimate =

China - Scott Specialty album with pages to 1949 (binder is in excellent shape). Nothing pre-1930, with strength of wartime issues/overprints/revaluations and some post-war, there are hundreds of regular issue stamps, with a bit of "back of the book" and some "Provinces". Well organized, more mint than used, and very fresh condition. The best is souvenir sheet B9a (never hinged but corner crease, catalogues $200.00).

Denmark #2/462. 50+ year old mounted used collection on black pages with an excellent offering of various versions of the "Royal Emblem" including shades, cancels and more valuable (#11-15, most of the "Skilling" denominated numerals, a complete Christian X set). A quick check indicates that most will come off the pages easily.

A wide diversity of issues, mostly used, and all hinged to black pages. Noted B1-B2, C2-C3, plus a good range of postage due, officials and parcel post stamps.

France #323/2179, B49/B662 and other Back of the Book. Lovely mint and apparently all never hinged collection of over 1500 different stamps in a 60 black-page padded stockbook. The regular issues and semi-postals are reasonably well covered from 1937 to the early 1990’s for issues up to $5.00 catalogue value (no souvenir sheets or booklets), with a smattering of airmail, postage due and UNESCO issues. The condition is excellent, with stamps being well centred, and no perforation issues were seen. The stockbook itself has a bit of cover wear, some creased interleave pages (should press out) and a previous owner put Scott numbers in the margin in white ink - fortunately this can be countered with a few minutes with a black sharpie.

A bit of the 1960s material is both mint and used, and there are an inconsequential number of duplicates. Otherwise, what you have is a nice, clean run of nicely used modern French material.

What makes it a "double" album is that the collector took two sets of (slightly different) pages and incorporated them into one binder. For the most part, you get a page of used, followed by a near identical page of mint (only a few pages are missing). The collection itself is quite complete, starting with a mostly used set of the UPU issue, with lots of "Bells", "Portraits" and early semi-postals, supplemented with extras in the later material, such as complete booklets, souvenir sheets and coils (not listed in Scott and either mint or used).

The Alligator stockbook is all post-war, more mint than used, with some duplication half being West Germany, the other half from the East. A small Dutch-made spiral bound stockbook has a few pages which seem to be the start of a study of the postwar German AM Post and "Castles" issues.

Great Britain #1. Two different "investment" folders, each with a Penny Black. The Fleetwood folder has a four-margin copy (three big margins, and the left-hand side is clear, but barely), with a Red Maltese cancel. The second is a faulty example with no significant margins and could use a soaking! You will undoubtedly be getting these cheaper than what the original investor paid. Total 2024 Scott US$750.00 =

Great Britain #3/1061. Simple, but attractively mounted, collection on homemade pages, starting with a good selection of used Queen Victoria issues, including some #33s, and better singles up to $350.00 catalogue value, plus some nice cancellations jump out at you and the occasional perfin. There is a mint single here and there (6d 1884, 1/- Jubilee, 10d KEVII etc.), but the collector hinged stamps over top of each other, so there could be sleepers (the 10/- #109 is completely out-of-sight at first glance). The KGV includes some Seahorses to 10/, the 1948 Royal Wedding "pound" is mint, as is the first set of Wilding/Castles. The Elizabethan is mostly mint up to 1984, so there will be a few pounds of usable face value as well. A nice offering, which could include a few surprises. Estimate =

Great Britain - A diverse consignment balance that fills a bankers box. From bottom to top, we noted a binder of 1970’s presentation packs, an older collection in a springback binder back to the Penny Reds, with most of the QV Jubilee and KEVII sets used, Seahorses to 5/-, an older Stanley Gibbons binder with a mix of mint and used Machins and Regional issues, followed by what looks to be a recent and brand-new Gibbons 4-ring binder, a Lighthouse FDC album with 1970’s FDCs. Finishes with a bundle of loose stamps, revenues, presentation packs, even a large old folding map of Philatelic Britain. Hours of fun here. Estimate =

Great Britain - Channel Islands - Jersey 1/603, J1/J46 and Guernsey 1/445, J8/J41, a Channel Islands duo with a mint collection on Stanley Gibbons pages in padded burgundy binders. Both collections are mostly mint, with a touch of used (usually duplicated) material, covering 1960 to about 1990. Unusually, both albums have the pages out of order, which seems to have resulted in a bit of duplication, and makes it a bit difficult to determine completeness, but there are very few vacant spaces. All are in collector added mounts. A few of the early issues are hinged, but are otherwise unhinged, with extra material such as se-tenant pairs, booklets and mini-panes/souvenir sheets. The Jersey comes with a full run of postage dues with a total catalogue value of $455.35. Guernsey is missing the first set of postage dues and the early high value definitives re-issues with different perforations, and only the occasional stamp, catalogue value $264.90. One binder has one ring that needs straightening, the overall condition of the stamps is excellent. Total 2023 Scott US$720.25 =

Greece - Minkus album with pages to 1986 holding a lovely collection, from the classic period onwards, with back of the book and occupied/administered areas too. Has a nice selection of Hermes heads, with a mix of mint and used up to WWII, and then a mix of mint and used to 1980 (includes better sets such as #535-38, 568-73, 582-585, 587-601, 604-617 all never hinged, these alone catalogue US$720.00). From 1980 onwards are all mint. The album is in excellent condition, many clear mounts have been added.

This stack of individually sleeved souvenir sheets are in in terrific condition, with an opportunity here to likely buy it for less than its original price.

Much fresher than normally seen with no tropical staining. The backs are a bit mixed, with a couple of the cheaper have no gum, but most of the definitives have the usual hinging hinge remnant. That being said, the four highest denominations of the commemorative set are never hinged! Total 2023 Scott US$642.65 =

The overall condition is excellent and sets and singles with catalogue values in the $15-$50 range are seen throughout.

The "hidden in plain sight" value in this lot is the 172 stockpages in near-new condition (these have crept up to near $2.00 per sheet retail cost now!!). Estimate =

Worldwide - A quartet of Minkus "Master Global" albums with pages to 1976 and with thousands of stamps from around the world with hit or miss coverage for everywhere except Canada (the only pages that we noticed to be missing). While the pages have been well loved, the binders are in above average condition and retail almost C$300.00 to buy them today. More used than mint, and a touch of duplication here and there. Pushing a U-Haul box to its physical limits. Estimate =

Worldwide - A trio of circa 1971 Harris "Senior Statesman" binders that are very full with a broad range of country coverage including Europe, British Commonwealth, Asia, Africa, Middle East, South America (just no Canada). Many thousands of stamps here, and the binders are in above average condition. Not just beginner level material, there is potentially better material throughout, including interesting cancels. More used than mint, with a touch of duplication here and there. Not your usual worldwide collection. Estimate =

Worldwide - Albums and stockbooks are pushing this U-Haul box to its limit! We noted an older Scott International binder (blue) with a hit-or-miss selection of British Commonwealth pages and stamps, a binder has a mounted collection of "A" to "R" countries, an old Y&T album with a British Commonwealth group of "G" to "P" colonies and a bit battered "Stanley Gibbons" springback with more British Commonwealth. Northern Europe is represented with a Sweden collection most 1950-1985 in clean mounts in a Viking album (sparse early, pages to 1985) and a 16-page Lighthouse stockbook with a nice offering of Scandinavian Christmas labels. Not to be overlooked is a United Nations collection in a Schaubek hingeless album with a near complete run from #1 to the early 1980’s, including the first souvenir sheet and the 20c-22c flag sheetlets. Finally, there is a hardcover 2015 Scott Classic specialized catalogue, an ageless reference. Lots to sift through here. Estimate =

Worldwide - Albums, binders and stockbooks fill this bankers box. Includes a 1923 version of the Scott International 19th century and 20th century albums. The 19th century is very sparsely populated, and is in "near new" condition, the 20th century saw more activity and includes the fair ribbons won by the young collector in Regina in 1924 and 1925. A black 24-page stockbook has a few hundred used 20th century stamps. A binder contains a mix of Captain Cook, Europa and 1983 Commonwealth Day issues. There is a collection of UAR in a binder with pages 1958-1977 (and stamps 1962-1976). An old Ambassador album has a few hundred stamps, and there are three little, lightly populated, stockbooks to round out this box. Estimate =

Worldwide - An odd mix of loose album and stock pages filling a bankers box. The top 1/3 is Middle Eastern (including some better mixed in with the "Dune" issues, with their amazing topical material). The bottom 1/3 is Malayan peninsula material of many different forms. In the middle is mostly African colonial issues, but we have only taken a glance at this lot. Thousands of stamps and looks relatively unpicked. The balance of an estate. Estimate =

Worldwide - Another incredible box of off (and some on) paper mix from a massive estate that we have been breaking up. Mostly loose, but with a bit sorted into glassines, this lot is not for the impatient collector, unless they are going to rope their stamp club into doing the work! Layered at times, there is some Great Britain, French and British Colonies and bits and pieces from almost everywhere in the world. At a quick glance, we noted very little Canada and almost no American material. This collector was active with classic issues into the early 1990’s and then turned his attention to newer issues from a number of countries, and the lot is very reflective of this. We expect that there will be good finds, but as we mentioned earlier, you must be patient! A very full bankers box. Thousands upon thousands of stamps. Estimate =

Worldwide - Another one of the very popular bankers box lots, filled with an unpicked group of "on and off" paper from around the world. This box is from a new source and not unexpectedly, has its own personality. Besides having thousands of stamps, with a bit more modern take, probably up to around 2005, but still with 19th century material seen here and there. A wide range of countries with no particular strength, but this one has a bit of material from Canada and United States. There is a bit more sorted material than is often seen with envelopes and baggies sorting material by country or region. There are some old packets and a bit of material on small cards. Hours of entertainment and the possibility of finding hidden gems. Estimate =

Worldwide - Asian Accumulation. A bankers box filled with bits and pieces from several different countries. The obvious strength is China (in its different forms, including an intriguing envelope stuffed with pieces from the hyper-inflation period and later over 100 PRC "promotional" souvenir sheets that have no postal validity but add some depth any collection). We noted some Japan, Vietnam (housed in a near-new 16-page stockbook), Thailand, Korea (North and South) and touches of Philippines, Indonesia, Mongolia etc. Includes some modern year and presentation sets, plus dealer stock in glassines, but also older on Vario stockpages and lots of album pages. It shouldn’t take too long to bring order to this group. Estimate =

Worldwide - Banker’s box o’ fun (and who knows what else). The balance of an estate, this is everything that didn’t easily fit anywhere else. The bottom half of the box is loose stamps, album pages, presentation packs, etc. (noted some British Caribbean and various European countries). There is a thin Scott International album sparse, but with potential. An older, but in good condition 3-ring red Lighthouse binder with slipcase has 35 Vario-brand stockpages laden with topical-rich material, including a few FDCs. The top of the box includes a couple of red dealer’s boxes. One is filled with "102" cards, with strength in France. The second has some "102" cards, and a bit of loose dealer and auction castoffs - unchecked by anyone, from what we can tell. Lots of potential here. Estimate =

In no particular order, noted Australia, Vietnam, Bohemia and Moravia, United States, Romania, Germany (and a second with DDR), Great Britain.

Worldwide - Bankers box overstuffed with stamps "on and off" paper. This box contains boxes, glassines, "102" cards and lots of loose stamps.

Worldwide - Bankers box with an assortment of complete albums plus album pages and stockpages. A mostly older batch, with a Scott International "Junior" album, a 1966 "Commander" and equally old "Premier" worldwide album, each with sections of strength and coverage. There is a large Scott Specialty binder with pages for Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia and Yugoslavia. A "Simplex" springback binder contains an interesting but a bit sparse group of mostly earlier British Commonwealth material from "S" to "Z" colonies. A 3-ring binder includes a smattering of mounted pages and a few Vario-brand stock pages. The last little bit in the bankers box is filled with loose album pages and stamps. Totals a few thousand stamps, much pre-1950. More used than mint and could include better and some cancel interest. Seems to be unpicked. Estimate =

Worldwide - Better than average collection balance in a banker’s box. About half the box is albums, including a couple of "Traveler’s" (quite full), an older spingback binder with a collection with lots of European, plus a couple of thinner volumes with less overall material. The second half of the box is a big bundle of black and manila stock pages most filled with stamps from across the globe (noted some nice post-war Germany) and lots of pages that are "one page, one country" with lots of British Commonwealth and Europe.

Worldwide - Cinderellas, labels, poster stamps, plus a few others from the very back of the book. Mostly American and Canadian in origin. The USA includes (among others) an Ekko Broadcasting stamp book with a smattering of stamps, plus some revenue stamps. The Canadian includes some local courier/postal strike issues (plus a copy of the Covert catalogue), CAPEX ’51 sheet of the stamp show label (3 penny beaver). We also noted British Local Post (including JFK memorial overprints on complete sheetlets), with some German local post, British Guiana judicial revenues, philatelic show souvenir sheets.

Worldwide - Europe-heavy consignment balance in several albums and stockbooks. In no particular order, we noted a stockbook with some San Marino, another with Eastern Europe, a third with USSR (in nice near-new 32-page Uni-Safe product in Soviet red colour) and a fourth smaller sized "Zagreb" brand stockbook, appropriately with Yugoslavia (and its forerunners). There are three worldwide collections in "Modern", "Triumph" and an unknown German album (lots of pre-1950 material amongst this trio). There is a mid-century USA collection that is housed in a lovely red "Rapkin" springback binder, then some assorted material such as "Nubian monuments", Portuguese colonies, a pre-WWII German collection including lots of used hyper-inflation material, a handful of mint Liechtenstein on "102" cards, plus a few stockpages with 1960’s-1970s material from Israel (mint) and the US (used).

Worldwide - Europe-strong bankers box, holding the balance of a large and fascinating estate that we have been breaking up. What has made this estate interesting is the wide mix of better and common material, but also nice cancels amongst the used items. We were always finding better items in odd places, but at some point you have to say "enough". This box has some material mounted on pages (e.g. a wide range of countries, but note Luxembourg), some in a couple of small stockbooks (Austria and Great Britain), two boxes and a bag filled with old envelopes very strong in pre-1950 Europe, much sorted by country. Didn’t see much Scandinavia or Germany at first glance. Thousands of stamps here, with potential at every turn. Estimate =

Worldwide - Five "one-country" Western European collections in their own binders, with the stamps mounted on looseleaf pages, each in its own page protector. Mostly used, with some "back of the book", going back to the 19th century, with coverage ending somewhere between 1980-1990. Includes Greece, Netherlands, Portugal, Liechtenstein (a bit sparser with more mint than the others) and France. Thousands of stamps, lots of great cancels, with individual stamps up to $15.00 each (and maybe more). Consigned from an estate and largely unchecked. A bargain at the estimated value. Estimate =

Worldwide - From a consignor who knows how to make a diverse lot look both fun and interesting! It starts a bit slow with a one pound "Pot of Gold" chocolate box stuffed with off and on paper worldwide, leading to a couple of containers and a red dealer’s box filled with almost 1000x "102" cards, which seem to have no theme or reason (other than a batch of mid to late 20th century Scandinavia) and we note that these "102" cards could easily be reused. The next layer includes mint sheets and large blocks primarily Austria, Haiti and Senegal. The balance is stock pages, album pages and even a couple of retired circuit books with material from all over the world (small concentrations in Belgium and Bahamas). Offered as received. Estimate =

Worldwide - Kiloware extraordinaire. From a dealer correspondence mostly 2000-2005. Very United States heavy (many $10+ face stamps, Madison $2.00 and Star Wars souvenir sheets, lots of 37c-41c commemoratives...), with a good batch of Great Britain souvenir sheets, and some Canada pieces with stamps up to the $8.00 Grizzly), and then there are bits and pieces from other countries. Much of this material was hand cancelled. Lots of value, lots of duplication. You are going to need a bigger bathtub (or we are going to need a bigger box, as this is overstuffing a bankers box).

Worldwide - Latin America bundle of leftovers. The first page shows this lot’s value with the 1974 Uruguay UPU anniversary set and souvenir sheet which shamelessly (and effectively) manages to also celebrate football/soccer and both 1976 Olympics (C395-C398, catalogues US$87.80 per set and there are five sets!). The rest of this handful includes stock and album pages with a smattering of a dozen Central and South American countries. A couple thousand mint and used stamps, most pre-1975. Estimate =

Worldwide - Loose album pages make up the majority of this bankers box. The best is a very old "B" to "L" countries (no Germany) pre-war issues on old Schaubek pages. There is a couple of worldwide collections, some assorted pages, with lots of Asian/Indian Ocean colonies, plus a few small stock/presentation booklets (e.g. Vietnam, USSR). Some of the pages are packed, others are sparse (and some are empty). Still thousands of mostly pre-1980 stamps. There looks to be potential at every turn of the page. Estimate =

Worldwide - Mystery U-Haul box with the bottom half being loose small sized glassines packed with what appears to be used Canada and Great Britain (a bit of which is mint). The next layer is four small boxes with a mix of glassines, cards and loose stamps (a much broader group). Topping off the box is a big bag with more envelopes and some 20-year-old kiloware (strength Canada, Great Britain, with many other countries too). Overall, most is likely to be off paper.

Worldwide - Supermix Lot A: Many thousands of stamps "off and on" paper, originating from several sources, (so there is lots of diversity) overfilling a banker’s box. Dozens of countries are represented here. Much of the material is "free-range", but a bit is organized into glassines and "102" cards. Most singles, but a few larger pieces were noted. At a quick glance, most appears to be 20th century material, with a bit of topical appeal noted and some labels and other "back of the book" seen here and there. There is probably some cancel appeal, but what we can guarantee is hours of fun and entertainment. Winter still has a few months to go, so this will help you (or your stamp club) pass the time!

Worldwide - The consignor accurately described this lot as "albums and many packages". We will add in "with strength in British Commonwealth and Europe", but there is material from almost everywhere. The albums include a 16-page Lighthouse stockbook with lots of older Latin America, a small stockbook with Western Europe with another having more Latin America and American material, with a green "Medium Senator" springback with "A" and "B" countries, finishing with an older "Alligator" brand stockbook with "I" to "K" countries (perfect for collectors wanting both Ireland and Japan). "The packages" include an envelope box filled with dealer purchases made by a local collector in a wide assortment of cards and glassines, with an even wider range of material, followed by a deep stack of about 8"/20cm worth of album and stock pages, with lots of British Commonwealth, but with surprises mixed in.

There is a stockbook with a collection of Monaco up to about 1980. A battered stockbook holds a lovely group of worldwide socked-on-the-nose cancels. There are a couple of folders with "Staffa" gold foil issues and a couple of small handfuls of show and "102" cards with random material. The balance of the box is about 100 manila and Vario-brand stockpages with neatly organized (mostly) used material from about 50 countries, strength in Europe and Latin America with a bit of US postage (probably US$30.00) with a bit of Asia.

The worldwide is found in three starter binders or albums (packed), a classy Elephant brand stockbook with a smattering of stamps and a World Wildlife Fund album with late 1980’s animal-themed stamps, FDCs, maxi-cards, etc. (with an original invoice that suggests that these cost $10 per page! and there are at least 35 pages).

Worldwide - What glitters isn’t always gold. This collection of collections of stamps, first day covers and "gold" stamps were effectively designed to separate non-collectors from their cash and were all over the place in the late 1970s to the early 1990s. While most collectors steered clear of these promotions, they have gained more acceptance for collectors who want all known cachets for their first day cover collection, or for collectors who can use the stamps at a fraction of their original cost. This battered U-Haul box contains several volumes, including the American Revolution (75 FDCs - Franklin Society), Commonwealth Day 1983 (British Commonwealth stamps), 1977 Queen’s Jubilee and 1978 Coronation Jubilee (stamps, souvenir sheets, White Ace), 1977 Queen’s Jubilee (60 FDC Westminster Society). Gold foil King Tut (only 3), Achievements in Space (Middle Eastern countries x11), Great Firsts in Aviation (Dominica x30), and the cachets for the Story of Canada (13x FDCs).

All start in the 19th century, with "hit or miss" at first, then getting stronger once out of the 19th century and each running to about 1980 (give or take a few years). More used than mint, with lots of "back of the book" and a bit of duplication.

Worldwide Ephemera - Medicine / Perfume / Sewing Advertising Cards. An unusual offering of 53x 1870's / 1880's Medicine advertising cards, neatly arranged on pages from a collection not touched in decades. Most are American, but we did note a couple Canadian examples (or at least from distributers in Canada). Some of the notable companies / adverts are for Carter's Little Liver Pills, Hanson's Magic Corn Salve, Carter's Backache Plasters, Rose's Pharmacy Perfumes (Toronto), Wistar's Balsam, Barry's Tricopherous, Domestic Sewing Machine Company, Burdock Blook Bitters, Ayer's Sarsaparilla etc (to name a few).

Worldwide Supplies - Group of 13 stockbooks, including nine 32-page (mostly Lighthouse) stockbooks (5 white pages, 4 black), followed by four 16-page (three are older and a bit battered, but full of stamps). Some are empty, some have a few token stamps, and a few are pretty full. There are some minor cover faults on a couple. With the rise in cost / supply-chain issues, getting reasonably used supplies is a sought-after venture. Estimate =

Zambia #271a/439. VF mint Never Hinged accumulation, mostly in blocks, and mostly in sets and a few souvenir sheets, with excellent commemorative coverage between 1982-1988 (plus a few older and a few newer), in an older, but still useful 32-page Lighthouse "block" stockbook (4 strips). We did note better singles including the 1985 "Gold" trio. Lots of topical interest such as Scouts, flowers, animals, airplanes, sports, reptiles, fish, trains, etc. Often overlooked at the time but has gained in appreciation in recent years. There are some scattered used singles and souvenir sheets, and many of the partial mint sets are included but not counted in the total catalogue value. 2023 Scott US$653.20 =
