Substantial FIVE-volume collection covering 1858 to 1999 filling a banker’s box. Over 5000 mostly different (some are both mint and used), with lots of sets and souvenir sheets. As you would expect, the earlier tends to be more used, and the more recent is heavily skewed towards mint. Includes better singles such as mint #62-67. Up to 1969 and after 1992 are housed in black "Vario" stockpages, in three ring binders (the pages have substantial value). The 1969-1991 (and the back of the book) are in black and clear mounts on Scott Specialized pages in a pair of green two-post binders (quite worn but doing the job). Very complete coverage and there are significant swaths where the mint is never hinged. Includes an extensive collector inventory, and although it was catalogued 20 years ago, the values are spot on for current values. A tremendous opportunity to engulf yourself Russian stamps with this collection. Owner’s Scott US$5506.60 =
