British Pacific

Strength in British Solomon Islands, with 8 larger "Canoe" issues (usual mixed condition) and some better mostly used values up to early QEII, including a clean copy of 5/- #55 GeoV. Next is a good offering of Gilbert and Ellice Islands and some Kiribati (mostly mint hinged). We then noted a bit of Niue and an intriguing couple of pages of early Australia (including states, complete with forgeries, OS perfins and some terrific cancels). There are 6 different dollar denominated Australian stamps from the 1980’s-1990’s overprinted "Specimen" - each in blocks of at least 15. Opportunity at every corner of this one, take a good look at the pictures to appreciate the scope of the lot. Estimate =
