Massive accumulation of over 100,000 used Canada, in two bankers boxes. For a lot of this size, this is a nicely organized lot with material in several stockbooks, manilla stock pages, or in bundles. The material ranges from the Small Queens up to the roughly the 1980s, with an estimation of roughly 30,000 stamps pre-1950, and over 70,000 stamps post-1950, including coil pairs and strips, blocks, back of the book material, precancels, and more. Just considering the early material, we note a range of postmark types including squared circles, CDS, duplex, split rings, including some socked on the nose town cancels, noting Small Queens, Quebecs, Edwards, Admirals, and several definitive and commemorative issues from the 1930s. The latter portion of the lot contains a few hundred bundles of several issues, appearing to be mostly from the 1960s onwards. A wonderful opportunity for postmark hunters, and unchecked for listed varieties, shades, paper types, etc. Just some of the early stamps catalogue from $3 to $10 each, with a few issues cataloguing much higher. Our photos show a number of pages of the early material with an overview. Should be worth our low estimate which is less than 1c a stamp. (and we don't make pennies anymore). Estimate =
