Albania - Not-often-seen collector’s accumulation or treasure pile of mint and used Albania, including the dubious early eagle issues (not counted), a range of overprints, airmail, souvenir sheets and nice post-war commemorative sets. With auction lots, dealer cards and glassines, mounted collections, there are bound to be positive surprises here. Hundreds of stamps. If you are to believe the various notations throughout, there is probably a couple thousand dollars worth of catalogue value here. Overall condition looks pretty good and some duplication is to be expected. Estimate =

Australia #726/1838. Two decades of First Day Covers issued 1980-2000, all unaddressed and with Post Office cachet.

A few are non-standard (e.g. numismatic, Frama, label).

Lots of commemoratives, se-tenants, and small sized souvenir sheets. From a collector with a standing order for new issues, so we expect it to be a very complete run. Condition as originally issued.

Australia and States - A tub of amazing "odds and ends", including loose used stamps, with some ‘Roos and lots of King George V "Heads", followed by a handful of mint presentation packs and mint sets and singles (mostly 1970’s-’80s). There are two handfuls of dealer approval pages that look relatively untouched (both mint and used - with some cancel potential). The modern includes the 1982, 1983 and 2000 year albums. There is a small, but intriguing bundle of Aussie states issues, unchecked for better. Finally, there is a Stanley Gibbons padded four ring binder with pages to 1981, with the binder being in excellent shape and there are a couple hundred mint and used stamps inside. Not your usual holding. Estimate =
