USA Precancels

Collection of USA Bureau Precancels, all housed in a 1939 Bureau Print album (published by the Garden City Stamp Company of Chicago). The collection runs from the 1916 "Experimentals" through to 1931. The stamps range from Scott catalogue #462 to 721 and are very extensive with over 2,000 stamps, including many higher values. The 2005 (and latest) edition Precancel Stamp Society (PSS) catalogue total value comes to US$1,082.00. Using Scott catalogue value increases as well as the increased interest in precancels, the owner expects the present valuation to be 50% higher. Owner's 2005 PSS catalogue US$1,082.00=
