United Nations

1951-1994 Collection in Lighthouse Album. Almost all mint and almost all NH 1951 to 1994 period collection of all three United Nations offices, all housed in a top-of-the-line Lighthouse album. There are 1,085 stamps and 22 souvenir sheets in total. The #38 souvenir sheet is used (First Day Cancel). The pages up to 1976 are blank pages with the stamps laid out in hingeless mounts by the collector, with the more recent pages all SF printed pages. The album and pages alone retail for over $200.00. The run of stamps is very comprehensive, consisting of New York Offices #1/652, C1-C23 (686 stamps and 11 souvenir sheets); Geneva Offices #1/259 (233 stamps and 6 souvenir sheets); and Vienna #1/175 (176 stamps and 5 souvenir sheets). Almost complete for the period, with a high total original face value. 2021 Scott US$795.15=
