A very interesting topical/literature collection of Mount Everest related material, including roughly 150 commemorative covers from Nepal, with Mount Everest image stamps, pictorial cancels, signed expedition covers (including the first woman on Mount Everest, 30th anniversary of the 1st youngest summitter on Mount Everest, first balloon over Mount Everest, just name a few), along with four related periodicals including: A Catalog of Himalayan Mountaineering Correspondence (Singer and Gould, 2002); Nepal 1772-1961 and Beyond (Singer); Tibet- First Series, 1912 Plating Notebook (Bibbins); The Postal Markings of Tibet (Hellrigl). We note duplication ranging from 5 to 10 and up for a few of the covers. A great grouping with exotic collecting possibilities. Estimate =
