|
Collection of used British Commonwealth neatly organized in 3 Unisafe stockbooks, containing a few thousand stamps, generally ranging from the 1870s to the 1970s, with material possible on either side of the given range. Each stockbook contains material from particular regions, the first from British Asia with better representation from India, Ceylon, Hong Kong, Malaya and area; the second stockbook holds material from British West Indies and Africa noting K.U.T., Cape of Good Hope and South Africa, Malta,; with the third stockbook containing Channel Islands and Ireland. A cursory check indicated some used singles and partial sets cataloguing $10 to $40 and up including Malta #3 (c.v. $70); India #93-98 ($109 total), 124-125 ($82 total), leaving potential finds to the dedicated collector. Postmark interest includes cds, duplex, squared circles, and a few Treaty Port cancels, just to name a few, noting some socked on the nose town cancels. The lot also includes a few scattered mint stamps throughout. A very nice lot for the British Commonwealth collector, with online photos showing a sampling. Estimate =
