British Commonwealth

Circa 1973 Minkus "British Europe" album houses a nice, used, collection from several countries. The Great Britain has a good selection of Queen Victoria, with catalogue values to $275.00 and some beautiful cancels. The 5/- KEVII has a perfin and there is solid coverage through to the early 1970''s, with a bit of back of the book and Isles. Cyprus gets going in the King George VI era, but is hit-or-miss throughout, including a few souvenir sheets. Gibraltar is strongest in the 1960's-1970's. There are some overprints on GB stamps for use in the Levant. Malta is strongest from King George VI issues onward. Ireland is mostly 1941-1973 issues. Overall, there is lots of nice material throughout with pockets of better value material. Condition is better than normal. The album has minor wear and after a light clean should be good for another 50 years! Estimate =
