Plymouth album with starting with the classic "Turks" issues, in usual mixed condition but with a catalogue value of over $600.00, not including some of the dubious overprints (or in the case of #6, formerly overprinted) stamps. When this Caribbean colony joined up with Caicos in 1900, only the occasional stamp or set was issued. The Turks and Caicos portion of this lot has a nice showing of (primarily) used examples of most issues up to the 1980’s, including a smattering from the first issue through the KGVI "Salt" issue and including the 1935 and 1948 Royal Wedding common design issues. There are some nice apparently postally used examples from most of the QEII definitive issues, plus a good run of commemoratives (catalogue value of $397.15). Tucked into the back of the album is a small folder with about a dozen used souvenir sheets, plus some other issues that the collector never got around to mounting, not counted in the catalogue value. Total 2022 Scott catalogue value US$997.15 =
