Italian Colonies
|
|
Album duo. The first is a Davo "Italia Royale" binder in excellent condition with a slightly battered slipcase, and regular "Palo" pages for Italian-African colonies up to 1960. The pages are lightly used, with some clear mounts added with a few light pencil notations. Total retail about $400.00. The second album is an old Minkus binder with album pages (includes more Colonies and Administered areas) to 1960. There are some empty black mounts, but there is a number of stamps (both loose and in glassines) tucked into the binding, including some nice Aegean Islands (especially "Rhodes") and "Eritrea", but others undoubtedly exist. A lot of this was inexpensive when it was originally purchased but has recently increased in catalogue value (e.g. Rhodes #J1-J9, catalogues $108.50). There could be diamonds in this rough.
