France - Collection on Yvert & Tellier album with pages to 1967. Over 1400 different stamps including "back of the book". A mix of both mint and used (the earlier tend to be used, then progressing to more mint material). The album has been well loved, but it has lovingly protected the stamps, which are generally in excellent condition, fresh and well centered. The owner’s catalogue value by 2018 Scott was $5832.00, a spot check against the 2023 Scott indicates that prices are down 10%, and we are rounding it down a little bit more "just in case". Total estimated 2023 Scott US$5,000.00 =

Germany #402/529, B99/B291, C46/C60 plus other BOB, General Government & Bohemia and Moravia. Third Reich collection with several hundred mint and used stamps, plus a few souvenir sheets all in a bit battered regular Lighthouse album with (damaged) slipcover. Although some key items appear to have been removed many years ago, there is good value here, noting B67 and 2 copies of B104, airmails C55-56, plus a host of individual stamps in the $10.00-$20.00 catalogue value range. The General Government is quite complete, including back of the book issues, and there is a bit of Bohemia and Moravian material. Some black mounts have been added, and there is some duplication where the collector found a shade, se-tenant pair or nice cancel to augment the collection. Speaking of extras, there are about 20 pieces of postal history and postal stationery in the form of Feldpost, civilian and philatelic mail. Although the album would have originally had a significant original cost, because of its condition, we are not considering it in our estimated value. Estimate =

Germany - A banker’s box with the balance of a consignment. Starts with a hingeless Lindner album with 1992-1999 mint Never Hinged stamps, including semi-postals (the printed pages are 1992-1994) and the balance used generic pages - about 400 stamps cataloging about US$500.00 plus an album that would set you back $200.00. There is a springback album with a clean used collection from the early issues up to 1990, including some East Germany. There is a small study of a couple hundred stamps with Berlin cancels on Vario-brand stockpages. A near-new Uni-Safe 32 page stockbook contains three pages of mint issues circa 1981 (perfect to help you with your sorting). Next are a couple of mint inflation-era panes and a big bundle of 1984-1990 new issue release "posters" (shows stamp, cancel, lengthy description - a few with press photo), a page of "potential" including some Germany states and post-WWII issues and even saw a few forgeries.

Enormous original cost, especially when you start adding up the many "1st Class" or "pound-plus" values.

Great Britain - Take a look at every scan in this lot before making up your mind about how much to bid, as organization comes and goes, but high cataloguing stamps are everywhere. It does start with Queen Victoria, sparse up to the Jubilee issue. Most of the Edward VII set has multiple copies, a few pages have George VI and early Elizabethan, but then reverts to George V definitives, often by the score! Then there are some 1924 British Empire Exhibition stamps and a herd of about 50 Seahorses! The lot finishes with more GeogeVI and Edward VIII (with some mint multiples). The only downside to this lot is the 32-page stockbook, which needs some TLC (tender loving care, after being shown a total lack of concern). Thousands upon thousands of dollars of catalogue value and appears unchecked for cancels or varieties. Estimate =
