A sublime combination of an old-school GB collection in 5 hingeless Lighthouse albums in green, with matching slipcases (goes up to 2014). These alone have a retail value of $2500(!) and are in excellent condition. The stamps themselves have some potential with a scattering of QV issues, including a host of various plates of #33. The KEVII issues run up to the 5/-. The Seahorses make an appearance in the KGV-era. Unfortunately, the condition is an issue for these earlier stamps, especially those with significant catalogue value. About 1970, the collector turned to mostly mint issues, and we counted a face value of over UK£350.00 ($591.00 CDN equivalent). After the year 2004, the collection inexplicably ends and the last few years the albums are essentially untouched. Whether you are here for the albums, the stamps or the postage, there is something for you. Estimate =
