Europe

Shoebox with the balance of an olde-time European dealer’s approval stock, probably from the late 1950’s, mounted on 140 stockcards with a paper overleaf. The material is mostly from the first half of the 20th century, with strength in the 1920s-1950's. Includes mint, used, "back of the book" and the occasional non-Scott listed item (with light to moderate duplication). While much of the material is more common, there are better items in the $5.00 - $30.00 scattered throughout. Noted multiple cards from Germany, Danzig, Romania, Austria, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Bohemia and Moravia (to name a few), but many other countries are represented by a card or two as well. There is a bit from the rest of the world, but this accounts for fewer than 10 cards. Some of the material was separated by Michel catalogue numbers and finds are likely to be found by the knowledgeable collector. This material appears to have never been picked and has likely not seen daylight in 70 years! Estimate =
