In not particular order, there are 7 imperforate Penny Red franking items (one with a pair), a mis-perforated copy of #8 on a clean 1854 envelope, several covers bearing #33 (most with the plate numbers identified) and a pair of folded letters used to confirm numbers for a church registry (using 1/2d #78).

Great Britain #27/523 plus Back of the Book. A pre-decimal mounted collection. Good Victorian era material, with individual catalogue values up to $250.00 per stamp, including some nice wing margin copies and a number with readable cancels. The Edwardian section is respectable followed by two Seahorses, the collection picks up steam again in the early Elizabethan issues, which are now predominantly mint and includes phosphors, graphite lines and some postage dues with potential. About 350 stamps in total. The catalogue would add up quickly and easily come out to a few thousand dollars. Estimate =

Great Britain #28/134. A tale of two notebooks. The first is a child’s scribbler probably from the 1960’s with about 220 used stamps from the Victorian-Edwardian period, including better, such as #28 x4 (catalogue $300.00 each), along with better issues throughout, including many different plate numbers and some cancel potential. Duplication in the Jubilee and KEVII issues, including some shade potential (the prices, mostly in pennies, are from another era!). Unfortunately, the stamps were heavily hinged to the pages, and some possibly even glued in place. So, despite there being a few thousand dollars in catalogue value here, the successful bidder may be advised to soak them all off. If that doesn’t "float your boat" the second "notebook" is a plate reconstruction booklet for #33, with 112 used and 1 mint copy all in their appropriate sheet location. The conditioning and hinging of these stamps are better. Estimate =

Great Britain - Accumulation in a small stockbook. This little stockbook has successfully protected these stamps for about 50 years, but it didn’t magically organize them. The first four pages are a mix of various "penny red" printings, with about half being #33. We noted an uneven block of 6 of #16 (it should be mentioned that there is no indication that any plating study has been done). The book jumps ahead to Great War-era GeoV issues and 8 Seahorses. We then whipsaw back to the QV Jubilee issue (noted six copies of the 4 1/2d, catalogue $45.00 each). The Edward VII includes value to the 10d, finally finishing with the GeoVI issues. About 350 stamps in total. Enormous catalogue value. Unchecked for plates, perfs, shades. Estimate =

Iceland #1-7. Mixed condition grouping of 1873 issues. Including #1 (no gum, rounded corner...but catalogues $1,050.00), #2 (mint, tone spot, hinge remnant, $175.00), #3-#7 are all used, and all faulty, and would catalogue $7300.00! However, Scott footnotes read "False and favor cancellations are often found on #1-7. Values are considerably less". Facet prices post-period favour cancels at 10-30% of their regular catalogue values. Regardless, given the condition of the stamps, we are only counting the catalogue value of the first two stamps in this lot, and the others can act as attractive space fillers until something better comes along. 2023 Scott US$1,225.00 =
