Specialized collection volume 1: Neatly arranged in black mounts, this springback binder is filled with quadrilled pages that start with the 1876 large crescent design, with both mint and used examples, with the occasional multiple or town cancel. Identified by Michel numbers, the appearance of the stamps is excellent, and there is obvious printing differences awaiting your discovery. Noted some private bisects/overprints and "Imprimes" overprints. Better singles include #66 used and #73 mint (rounded corner), both with certificates. Town cancels are often identified, there are a few forgeries and non-Scott listed printings to discover. A phenomenal 19th century offering. Estimate =
