Portuguese Colonies

Group of 1939-1940 World’s Fair overprinted issues including New York’s iconic Trylon and Perisphere. These airmail issues are all fresh and mint, with about half being Never Hinged, the balance very lightly hinged. A couple have expertization marks on the back. These are listed as a footnote in Scott, and only one stamp from each colony was overprinted. Includes Portuguese India, Cape Verde (2), Mozambique, Guinea, Timor (unpriced), St. Thomas, Angola. Included in this lot is the balance of a consignment including a small assortment of old auction purchases, strength in Portuguese India, Mozambique, and Macau, but only the overprinted stamps are counted in the total catalogue value. 2023 Scott US$1135.00 =
