Space/Astronomy collection of stamps and covers that seem to have gotten jumbled upon re-entry! The stamp portion includes several hundred stamps mounted on a variety of very specialized album pages (saw Lighthouse, both regular and hingeless, Kabe, homemade). The pages are loose, duplicated, and only partially in order, meaning that some organization is required. There are a few packets which contain a few hundred more recent purchases that are in envelopes awaiting sorting and mounting. About 200 worldwide covers tied to various space missions are included, with strength in the Apollo missions from the late 1960’s – many US and British covers noted. There are about 90 German Democratic Republic covers circa 1982 with commemorations of various space trips. The box concludes with a dozen panels produced by "CosmoPhil" circa 1970 to promote the topical collecting of space stamps. Estimate =
