Perforated Penny Red Hoard. Several thousand used examples of mostly the 1850s issue type "A1" (stars in upper corners) perforated Penny Red, sorted alphabetically into "A to T" envelopes and in a couple of glassine envelopes. Offered as received, so expect some faulty stamps but unchecked for perfs, dies, papers or varieties. A great chance for the plate collector or sheet reconstructor. The total catalogue value HUGE, even if valued as the cheapest Scott catalogue types. Old-time hoards like this are becoming harder and harder to find. Estimate =
