Accumulation of old revenue stamps and paper. If you like your collection to occupy the rear of the back of the book, then this old holding is for you. Spanning Queen Victoria to about 1980, with very little after 1970. Most are on stamp or piece, with stamps for Foreign Service, Diplomatic Service, every imaginable court service, express company. There are embossed revenue seals, and impressions for newspaper taxes on cutouts of Victorian-era newspapers. There are a handful of TV licences with the matching stamp. Quick summation, if there was something that needed taxing during these times, the British would make sure there was a matching revenue stamp. There are stock pages, a stockbook, glassines. Must be several hundred stamps. Includes a couple of older references (one is dated 1912!) to help you put order to this chaos. Estimate =
