Albania and Bosnia & Herzegovina - Adriatic accumulation, the balance of a random group of purchases, including mounted collections, auction and bidboard lots plus some loose material. A mix of mint and used issues with sets, some souvenir sheets, overprints with some cancel potential. Some better material was seen in a quick pass. Disorganized and with a bit of duplication. Hidden gems may lurk throughout this lot! Estimate = $180.00
History

3
Argentina #22/1475 plus Back of the Book. The Minkus album might say "Argentina and Uruguay" on the cover, but this is an Argentine-only collection covering 1867 to 1984 (and pages a few years later). Over a thousand stamps, more used than mint, with better such as the 1952 Eva Peron set and the 1966 sheetlet #797. The classic issues include items which catalogue up to the $200.00 each range, but are hole punched. Still, this is a fine offering of material, with lots of back of the book material, especially airmail and official overprints. The owner has little pockets of material that he never got around to mounting which are in glassine envelopes and there is a collection remnant on Scott International pages and two small stockbooks with duplicates (includes some non-Argentine material) to help round this collection out. Estimate = $200.00
History

4
Argentina #C1-C19. Complete mint Hinged (Lightly) set of all 19-values of the 1928 airmail series. One of the most iconic early airmail sets of the time with views of "Airplane Circles the Globe", "Eagle", "Wings Cross the Sea" and "Condor on Mountain Crag". Worthy of any collection. 2023 Scott US$195.50 = $263.95

Australia #103/425, C1-3, C5-8 and AAT. Neatly mounted collection of 349 mint and used stamps on Stanley Gibbons "Senator" pages from the 1929-2001 period, including "back of the book" airmail and Australian Antarctic Territory issues. Of particular note are nicely postmarked earlier issues, including a 1932 "Pinnaroo S.A." cancelled George V "Head" used block of four. 2024 Scott US$1047.05 = $1,413.50
History

Australia - Collection of Mint and Used Australia in 5 Volumes, 1913-2010, containing many hundreds of stamps, on hundreds of printed pages in handsome leatherette bound binders (4 of the 5 volumes). The collection contains primarily used singles, sets and partial sets up to the 1970s, with a mixture of mint and used material thereafter. The strength of the lot ranges from 1913 to the 1990s, noting 26 different Kangaroo stamps, including Scott #s 54 5sh (used, c.v. $100), 100 5sh (used, $100), a small representation of KGV Heads and singles, sets, and partial sets throughout. Pages after 2000 are generally sparse, but note mint a few mint never hinged sets, souvenir sheets and sheetlets within. Some finds to be found, as we note a few stamps, sets, and partial sets cataloguing $10.00 to $30.00 and up. A nice collection to build upon, from this popular collecting area. Estimate = $400.00
History

8
Australian States - Queensland / South Australia Specialized Queen Victoria Study. An old-time Stanley Gibbons "Devon" 2-post album containing over 2000 used QV stamps, being a specialized collection of the perfs, shades, plates, postmarks, watermarks and printing variations of the QV definitves / stamp duty issues. Hard to summarize this astonishing collection with just a handful of photos, but we have taken a representative sample of the pages, but keep in mind there are over 2000 QV issues in here. A "once in a lifetime" opportunity to acquire a collection as well-studied and researched as this. Estimate = $750.00
History

9
Bahamas #97/796. VF mint Never Hinged offering of 394 different stamps from the 1937-1994 period, almost all in complete sets, neatly laid-out on stockpages. A premium offering of Never Hinged material that would make an excellent starting point for this country, or make for some premium stock for a dealer. 2024 Scott US$748.10 = $1,010.00
History

10
Bahrain #2-14. Choice F/VF mint Hinged / Hinge remnant run of the ½ anna to 5 rupee George V India issue overprinted for use in Bahrain. Only missing (trivially) the 3p low value (catalogue $4.50) to make the complete first set. A very attractive issue from this popular Persian Gulf archipelago. 2024 Scott US$488.00 = $658.80
History

11
Barbados #190/948. VF mint Never Hinged selection of 225 different stamps from the 1937-1997 period, almost all in complete sets, neatly laid-out on stockpages. An attractive premium selection of Never Hinged material. 2024 Scott US$375.55 = $507.00
History

12
Belgium #1/81 plus Back of the Book. Four stockpages of Belgian classics, from the first issue into the early 20th century. Most are individually identified and catalogued. Almost all are used, and many have been obviously selected for having attractive cancels. The Back of the Book includes some postage dues, Railway/Parcel stamps, and 10 telegraph/telephone stamps. Except for the better #5, which is faulty and not counted, expect the usual minor faults for stamps of this era, which do not detract from this very attractive lot. Estimate = $150.00
History

13
Belgium - Early Belgium used bliss of about 200 stamps on four black stockpages, starting with a near-full page of King Leopold I issues in all three denominations. These have been selected for their socked-on-the-nose numeral cancels, most of which are very easily readable, and we expect the stamps will have enormous catalogue value, but with some condition issues. The balance of the collection stretches into the early 1900’s with each stamp individually selected for its readable cancel. We can’t overemphasize how stunning this lot is. Estimate = $300.00
History

14
Belgium and Belgium Congo - An interesting consignment balance starting with a dozen and a half different cancelled souvenir cards with complete sets of semi-officials issued 1938-1944. The Antarctic semi-postal set is found in complete panes and a single souvenir sheet, followed by a seemingly random assortment of dealer pages with souvenir sheets or singles, ending with modern mint and cancelled to order (?) from the 21st century in original glassines. Belgian Congo includes a couple of mint souvenir sheets and the rest is mostly used on stamp or piece. Of note, is the cancel / postmark potential here. Estimate = $150.00
History

15
Bermuda #115/700. VF mint Never Hinged selection of 434 different stamps from the 1937-1995 period, almost all in complete sets, neatly laid-out on stockpages. A wonderful offering of premium Never Hinged material, from the collection of a meticulous collector. A perfect basis for a collection, or premium stock for a dealer. 2024 Scott US$771.55 = $1,041.60
History

16
Bolivia #C11, C12, C14, C15, C18. VF mint Lightly Hinged group of the 1930 Graf Zeppelin airmail issues, including the key 1b red brown and black (gold overprint). Visually appealing, all with experization mark on reverse. 2023 Scott US$430.00 = $580.50
History

17
Bosnia #30d/45f. Over two dozen mint and used "Compound perforation" varieties of the Scenery and Franz Josef issue of 1906. At some point in the printing process, individual line perforators were swapped out, and replaced with a perforator of a different gauge. This applied to both horizontal and vertical perforations, leading to stamps with 2, 3 or 4 different perforations on different sides. These variations are listed in Michel and Scott Classic, and completion is very difficult, especially if you are looking to build all the different perf configurations. This page includes better such as #44d, 44f, 45d, 45e, 45f. A couple of the stamps have owner’s marks on the back. One 5kr Franz Josef is thinned and not counted, otherwise the condition is excellent (expecting a couple of shorter perfs from the stamps with perf 6-1/2. Total 2021 Scott Classic US$1307.75 = $1,765.46
History

18
Bosnia and Herzegovina #30-45, 46-61. Duo of complete used sets, included the 1906 imperforate pictorial issue of 16 stamps, plus the perforated 1910 "Birthday Jubilee Issue" of Emperor Franz Josef (similar design to the first set, but with "1830-1910" at bottom. We note there is quite the difference in catalogue value Scott vs. Michel catalogue on this one (especially for the imperforates), so plenty of upside if you use a Michel (but we have valued by Scott as usual). 2023 Scott US$197.85 = $267.10
History

19
British Antarctic Territory #16/252. VF mint Never Hinged selection of 209 different stamps from the 1966-1997 period, almost all in complete sets, neatly laid-out on stockpages. A very clean offering and perfect starting point for a collector, or premium stock for a dealer. 2024 Scott US$688.95 = $931.10

British Commonwealth - A mostly Pacific Islands selection of mostly mint, neatly arranged on pages within a springback album.

Better includes Aden (and states), Antigua, Basutoland, Bechuanaland, British Guiana, British Honduras, Burma (officials), Ceylon plus a few others. An attempt was made to start cataloguing this material about a decade ago. The material is fresh, well centered. Expect the mint to be hinged, but with almost no duplication. Estimate = $150.00
History

23
British Commonwealth - An "all Rhodesia" selection of mint and used neatly hinged on pages within a springback album (some of the later are Never Hinged in black mounts). This grouping represents Northern Rhodesia, Rhodesia, Rhodesia & Nyasaland and Southern Rhodesia. See the owner's inventory list for a breakdown of total stamps and catalogue value for each section.

History

24
British Commonwealth - Antigua / Bermuda selection of mint and used neatly hinged on pages. Antigua holds its own well here, but the real strength is in the Bermuda, with many better George VI stamps from the 1938-1951 period. See the owner's inventory list for a breakdown of total stamps and catalogue value for each country. Very clean material, including many complete sets. A grand total of 244 stamps. 2024 Scott US$1012.00 = $1,366.20
History

25
British Commonwealth - Attractive red "King George VI, Stamp Album" with gold-lettering, produced by Stanley Gibbons for George VI era British Commonwealth stamps only. A wonderfully focused area of collecting, with many of the sets issued of the period being well-obtainable for reasonably low prices. Contains a few hundred mint and used stamps, with strength in Canada / GB, just waiting to be put into use and filled up! This sought-after album is if good shape, with minor wear and tear and a "white-out" covered previous owner's name inside the front cover. Lots of life in this alum and lots of fun to fill it up! Estimate = $150.00
History

26
British Commonwealth - Australia / New Zealand collector's accumulation of mostly different issues from "classics" up to about 2020, as acquired by the collector over many years.

History

27
British Commonwealth - Blue 16-page Unisafe stockbook, about half-filled with a wonderful ride of mostly classic British Commonwealth "odds and ends". While there does not appear to be full sets here, there is a wealth of partial sets and better than average singles through out. Some the notable items are from Hong Kong (QV, Edward, GeoV mint), British Africa (lots of different countries), Canada (1930’s / 1940’s), 1935 Silver Jubilee issues and GB Offices abroad (QEII). Both mint and used represented, expect most of the mint the Hinged and the odd fault here and there, but overall a very clean offering. Estimate = $200.00
History

28
British Commonwealth - British Africa selection of mint and used neatly hinged on pages within a springback album. There are 23 countries represented here, which include Basutoland, Bechuanaland, Cape of Good Hope, Gambia, Gold Coast, Ghana, Kenya, KUT, Natal, Nigeria, Nyasaland, Orange River Colony, Somaliland Protectorate, Southwest Africa, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanganyika, Transvaal, Uganda, Union of South Africa, Zambia, Zanzibar and Zululand.

History

29
British Commonwealth - British Africa, east Africa including Kenya, Uganda, Tanganyika (with British East Africa and East Africa and Uganda), Bechuanaland (with British Central Africa and British East Africa), Somaliland and Swaziland. About 285 stamps,on six pages, from 1890 - 1971, including used and Mint hinged ( some both). A well represented group with many very collectible stamps. A few comments on two stamps, in particular. The first is K. U. T. #29, the second of two shown, has a central vignette of George V printed in a blue-grey colour whereas the normal stamp is all green, as seen in the first one. The consignor has not found any reference to such an anomaly but comments that it is not too surprising to find such as so many stamps of the design were being similarly produced for a wide range of face values, at the time. He speculates that a printer either got inventive or simply lost his way as he was going about his duties. If only one, or a few such pages were produced this stamp could be a unique item. It requires more research but is valued at the nominal $3.00. The second, of course, is Swazieland (sic) #1a, the inverse overprint on Transvaal #123. The stamp is a VF mint hinged perf. 12-1/2. It is noted that Gibbons shows a considerable premium value for this perf., over the more common 12-1/2 x 12. The consignor states that the appearance of the overprint exactly shows as the reproduction of the stamp in Scott and, as best can be determined, from the illustration in Gibbons. More research would be required to absolutely determine that this is genuine and not counterfeit but, with the evidence at hand, the stamp is valued at Scott $1,250.00, but sold with the caveat the more research is needed. With these comments in mind the total lot is valued at 2023 Scott US$2,027.25 = $2,736.00
History

30
British Commonwealth - British African miscellaneous, ranging from a well-organized binder of mostly Elizabethan-era Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania (whether together or apart) with many sets and souvenir sheets - lots of topical appeal here. There is a hodgepodge of Sierra Leone, with some very old stock pages holding a mix of mostly KGVI-QEII, but there is a page with the infamous "Face on Mars" souvenir sheets. Noted some Sudan and South Africa, including some mint multiples (may be a few non-African items here). An afternoon’s worth of sorting here will pay rewards for the collector or on-line seller. Estimate = $160.00
History

31
British Commonwealth - British Asia selection (mostly) of mint and used neatly hinged on pages within a springback album. There are 13 countries represented here, which include Bahawalpur, Bahrain, Burma, Brunei, Ceylon, India, Jaipur, Iraq, Malaysia, Mauritius, Pakistan, North Borneo and Umm Al Qiwain. See the owner's inventory list for a breakdown of total stamps and catalogue value for each country.

History

32
British Commonwealth - British Pacific and Asia: A very interesting consignment balance. Strongest is probably the New Zealand with a number of multiples overprinted "Official" on the 1940 Centennial issue, a complete roll of the 1c QEII coil (with starting and finishing tabs) and there are four examples of the first Special Delivery stamp inexplicably cancelled "Hobart Tasmania". There is some nice Samoa, and the Papua and Fiji have some potential. Moving eastward, there is a bit of India, Burma and the Sabah overprint on the 1964 Elizabethan issue. There is even a bit of Hong Kong, plus more not detailed here. Good value throughout. Estimate = $160.00
History

33
British Commonwealth - British Pacific Islands, the balance of a consignment. Mostly album and dealer stock pages. Noted some better Tonga, Papua New Guinea (and a bit of Papua), Gilbert and Ellice Islands, Solomon Islands and Samoa. To a lesser impact, there is some Vanuatu, Tuvalu plus Pitcairn, Cocos (Keeling), Christmas and Norfolk Islands. More mint than used. Some identified and catalogued, others "free range". While we noted issues up to 2010, most is pre-1975. Estimate = $180.00
History

34
British Commonwealth - Caribbean colonies selection of mint and used neatly hinged on pages. There are 8 countries represented here, which include Barbados, British Guiana, Guyana, British Honduras, Dominica, Grenada, Leedward Islands and Montserrat.

A grand total of 582 stamps. 2024 Scott US$1121.15 = $1,513.55
History

35
British Commonwealth - Central African colonies from "classics" to modern issues. A bit of a random assortment, but with better throughout, such as some nice Edwardian to KGVI Nyasaland (including "Keyplates" up to £1). There is some earlier British Central Africa, Nigeria, Northern Rhodesia (with KGVI to 20/-, a mix of Gold Coast, including used "Earlies" (a striking used QV 10/- has a SON cancel). The Swaziland includes #54-66 mint and the lot concludes with 1970's to 1980's mint and CTO Zimbabwe. Substantial value here. Estimate = $180.00
History

36
British Commonwealth - Collector's "A to Z" QEII First Day Covers collection of British Commonwealth issues with many set frankings throughout. A mix of cachet, non-cacheted covers, all mounted and neatly arranged alphabetically within 6 binders. There is also a group of Irish FDC that snuck in here, which held a soft-spot in the previous collectors heart. The catalogue value of the stamps alone would add up quickly! Take a look a the pictures to appreciate the scope of the offering and the quality of the material (although not all items can be shown). Estimate = $250.00
History

37
British Commonwealth - First Day Cover / Cover Potpourri. A small box stuffed with a collector's accumulation of 381 likely all-different FDC primarily from the British Commonwealth "Islands" (but with some "strays" as well). Looks to span the 1960's to 1990's and includes material from Aitutaki, Cocos Islands, Christmas Island, Cook Islands, Falkland Islands (and Dependencies), Fiji, GB, Jamaica, Nauru, Niue, Norfolk Islands, Pitcairn Islands, Papua New Guinea, Saint Kitts, South Georgia and Tokelau Islands. A grand total of 381 covers, which the previous owner has added up the catalogue value of the stamp alone (with nothing added for the FDC). Total Scott Catalogue value of the stamps alone comes out to US$1697.35 = $2291.40. A great opportunity to acquire some lovely sets and singes on covers. Estimate = $200.00
History

38
British Commonwealth - George VI Silver Wedding Sets. Very Fine mint Never Hinged selection of 24 different 1948 issue GeoVI Silver Wedding sets of two, all laid out on two Hagner stocksheets. The range of sets, while far from the complete omnibus series, includes a healthy representation of this classic and popular Royal Family thematic, including several of the better sets. 2024 Scott US$871.90 = $1,177.05
History

39
British Commonwealth - Southern Africa group on dealer cards and album pages. Noted Natal #9, four Cape Triangles, a page of mostly used Transvaal, another page of Orange River Colony and a couple of pages of mounted Cape of Good Hope. There is a nice page (each) of mint British Bechuanaland, Bechuanaland Protectorate and Basutoland. Much of this material has been individually identified and catalogued within the past five years. An uncommon offering. Estimate = $160.00
History

40
British Commonwealth - Trio of premium Lighthouse or Unisafe brand 32-page stockbooks, each about half-filled with an assortment of material from George VI to QEII from across the Commonwealth. A real mix of material here, but lots of useful "odds and ends" throughout. We noted better showings of omnibus issues (1937 Coronation / 1948 Royal Wedding), Malaya States, Hong Kong, India, Ceylon etc. The photos show a representative sample of some of the more populated pages. From a local estate, offered as received. Estimate = $250.00
History

41
British Commonwealth / Korea - Commonwealth Stock and Korea in Seven Volumes. Large holding of all kinds of Commonwealth issues, consisting of (in no particular order): Green stock book of modern mint South Africa (owner's catalogue of $350.00+); stock of many hundreds of duplicated and varied mint and used stamps from eleven different countries/colonies, Bahamas through Uganda, all on stock pages in a green 3-ring binder; collections/stocks of South Africa/New Zealand/Australian States/India/Trinidad & Tobago on mixed pages in a blue 3-ring binder; mixed "All Rhodesias" collection/stock on album and stock pages (owner's valuation over $700.00); Jamaica/Rhodesia/Southern Rhodesia duplicated stocks and sundry in black 3-ring binder; Collections of (mostly) Jamaica and Cayman Islands in a white 3-ring binder (owner's valuation over $600.00); and finally, Korea 1946-1949 mint "one of each" collection in primitive album (owner's value $622.00). This lot represents an excellent property for the philatelic "prospector". Estimate = $500.00
History

42
British Honduras #28-32, 33-37, 47, B1-B5. Attractive used selection of 11 different Queen Victoria issues (including overprints) followed by the 1932 semi-postal set (the only semi postal set issued by British Honduras, to aid in Hurricane relief).

History

43

The 2c+2c red value has a paper adhesion in the selvedge, and the 3c+3c orange has paper adhered to the back (plus a very minor thin on one stamp). The paper adhered could be soaked off.

44
British Indian Ocean Territory - VF mint Never Hinged offering of 96 different stamps from the 1968-1996 period, almost all in complete sets, neatly laid out on stockpages.

History

45
Burma #2N30/2N64. Japanese occupation issues and overprints, a spectacular, mostly used accumulation of 1943-1944 issues in a 16-page stockbook. What first stands out is the number of nicely cancelled multiples (some have to be cancelled to order) with a block of 40 of 2N41 (catalogues $720.00). Unchecked for plate printings, papers, shades, etc. Significant catalogue value here. Estimate = $250.00
History

46
Canada #4 Cover. Attractive 3+ margin (just touching at bottom) example of the 3p imperforate "Beaver" on tidy mourning (black-bordered) cover posted from Toronto on Feb 2, 1859 to Barrie ONT. An attractive use and ideal "on cover" example to enhance any Canadian collection. 2024 Unitrade = $300.00
History

47
Canada #4/2201a. A collector's batch of better mint and used Canadian material, neatly arranged on dealer cards and clear dealer sleeves. Starting with a 3-margin example of #4 (imperforate Beaver), followed by a good looking (but forged / re-backed) #8, into "Cents", "Large Queens", "Small Queens", "Edwards" and onwards, almost all pre-WWII with the exception of #2201 VF mint Never Hinged Lunar New Years "missing gold" year of the Pig. The earlier material is in mixed condition, with several small faults / regummed noted, but then moves into much cleaner material by the 1930's. A total of 109 stamps. Estimate = $200.00
History

48
Canada #21. Mint Hinged example of the 1868 issue ½c black Large Queen, perf 12 x 12. A great start to a set of mint Large Queens! 2024 Scott Classic US$250.00 = $337.50
History

49
Canada #34 Cover. Choice single-franking example of the 1/2c black Small Queen on local circular rate cover, posted locally from Saint John NB on November 3rd 1897. A wonderful example of the single use of the 1/2c stamp, being a scarce dated example (as almost all these circular rates are undated, as Post Office regulations only required them to be cancelled only with a grid). An attractive addition to any postal history collection, or “plus-value” add-on to a traditional stamp collection. 2024 Unitrade = $250.00
History

50

Argentina #22/1475 plus Back of the Book. The Minkus album might say "Argentina and Uruguay" on the cover, but this is an Argentine-only collection covering 1867 to 1984 (and pages a few years later). Over a thousand stamps, more used than mint, with better such as the 1952 Eva Peron set and the 1966 sheetlet #797. The classic issues include items which catalogue up to the $200.00 each range, but are hole punched. Still, this is a fine offering of material, with lots of back of the book material, especially airmail and official overprints. The owner has little pockets of material that he never got around to mounting which are in glassine envelopes and there is a collection remnant on Scott International pages and two small stockbooks with duplicates (includes some non-Argentine material) to help round this collection out.

Australian States - Queensland / South Australia Specialized Queen Victoria Study. An old-time Stanley Gibbons "Devon" 2-post album containing over 2000 used QV stamps, being a specialized collection of the perfs, shades, plates, postmarks, watermarks and printing variations of the QV definitves / stamp duty issues.

A "once in a lifetime" opportunity to acquire a collection as well-studied and researched as this. Estimate =

Belgium #1/81 plus Back of the Book. Four stockpages of Belgian classics, from the first issue into the early 20th century. Most are individually identified and catalogued. Almost all are used, and many have been obviously selected for having attractive cancels. The Back of the Book includes some postage dues, Railway/Parcel stamps, and 10 telegraph/telephone stamps. Except for the better #5, which is faulty and not counted, expect the usual minor faults for stamps of this era, which do not detract from this very attractive lot. Estimate =

Belgium - Early Belgium used bliss of about 200 stamps on four black stockpages, starting with a near-full page of King Leopold I issues in all three denominations. These have been selected for their socked-on-the-nose numeral cancels, most of which are very easily readable, and we expect the stamps will have enormous catalogue value, but with some condition issues. The balance of the collection stretches into the early 1900’s with each stamp individually selected for its readable cancel. We can’t overemphasize how stunning this lot is. Estimate =

Belgium and Belgium Congo - An interesting consignment balance starting with a dozen and a half different cancelled souvenir cards with complete sets of semi-officials issued 1938-1944. The Antarctic semi-postal set is found in complete panes and a single souvenir sheet, followed by a seemingly random assortment of dealer pages with souvenir sheets or singles, ending with modern mint and cancelled to order (?) from the 21st century in original glassines. Belgian Congo includes a couple of mint souvenir sheets and the rest is mostly used on stamp or piece. Of note, is the cancel / postmark potential here. Estimate =

Bosnia #30d/45f. Over two dozen mint and used "Compound perforation" varieties of the Scenery and Franz Josef issue of 1906. At some point in the printing process, individual line perforators were swapped out, and replaced with a perforator of a different gauge. This applied to both horizontal and vertical perforations, leading to stamps with 2, 3 or 4 different perforations on different sides. These variations are listed in Michel and Scott Classic, and completion is very difficult, especially if you are looking to build all the different perf configurations. This page includes better such as #44d, 44f, 45d, 45e, 45f. A couple of the stamps have owner’s marks on the back. One 5kr Franz Josef is thinned and not counted, otherwise the condition is excellent (expecting a couple of shorter perfs from the stamps with perf 6-1/2. Total 2021 Scott Classic US$1307.75 =

Bosnia and Herzegovina #30-45, 46-61.

We note there is quite the difference in catalogue value Scott vs. Michel catalogue on this one (especially for the imperforates), so plenty of upside if you use a Michel (but we have valued by Scott as usual). 2023 Scott US$197.85 =
