# 4/130

Mint and used (sometimes both) selection of 1886-1950 period issues, generally in Fine, sound condition. Fifty-three stamps in total, including some colour and perf varieties. The mint #110 is perf 13½ and the used #111 and 114 are also both 13½. The 1 shilling Edward in brownish bistre is an anomaly although very obviously a genuine used stamp with proper watermark and apparently genuine postal cancel. Likely and early printing error and more research will be required. It's easy to speculate but some documentation would help. The consignor thinks that it is a real find. Valued as a regular used 1shilling. A further philatelic note is that the A11 type 10c rose was mailed from Tangier, no doubt close to the time that these stamps were overprinted for such use, in 1898. Owner's 2017 Scott US$316.05=
