Second bankers box of vest-pocket dealer’s stock, with stamps from Paraguay, Peru, Uruguay, Panama, Guatemala and Haiti. This bankers box is filled with three and a half fully packed homemade boxes. There is a mix of mint and used stamps, sorted and identified by Scott number with each number getting its own glassine envelope. Anywhere from one to about 50 copies in each glassine. Conservative guess is that there are 2300x #5 sized (6" x 3.5") glassine envelopes, with well over 6,000 stamps. The stamps appear to be in very decent condition. As expected, most of the material is more common, however there is a good range of material, starting with the 19th century (many nice cancels) and much "front of the book" material up to about 2005 followed by lots of "back of the book" issues.
