# 2/750 plus Back of the Book

First century attractive mounted collection on Borek pages, covering up to 1967. Fairly complete almost right from the start, with early issues that include better (although generally faulty) such as #2, #7, #12, #14. The 1924 UPU Congress issues is complete used up to the 80o value (#197-208), and the UPU issue is near complete (missing the 60o). These two partial sets catalogue $600.00 alone. The collection is almost exclusively used, transiting to mint stamps around 1950. There are some noteworthy semi-postals and officials, plus some terrific "SON" (socked on the nose) cancels throughout, many from many smaller towns. Need to double check perforations, as this collector used a simplified method of collecting. After the early condition issues, the lot becomes steadily higher in quality. A high-quality offering.
