Bileski "Investment holding", Part 1, consisting of 1962-1981 stamps and first day covers in a shoebox. The bulk is Christmas issues from 1964/1981 (no 1978, the 1970 is being sold separately), plus some for the 1962 Wilding "Tagging" issues, a few commemoratives issued 1963-1966 and the 8c Centennial "Parliament". This appears to have been a subscription service, with envelopes having cacheted first day covers (often singles and plate blocks) plus some mint never hinged plate blocks and singles plus used singles and blocks. The original retail prices are on each envelope. The envelopes appear to have all been opened, but all the original contents appear to be intact. This collector paid over $1200 for these, some 40 to 60 years ago. Estimate =
