Classic KA-BE UBERSEE ALBUM No. 1. British Empire "A-N" volume. An overseas album (i.e. has no continental Europe) with approximately 300 pages, containing thousands of mint and used stamps from 80+ countries, colonies, dependencies, etc. The time period generally runs from 1851 to 1938, with a few runs of stamps ending by 1948. This first album contains only (but not all) British Empire issues, alphabetically from Aden to Newfoundland. A truly representative and entertaining group for the Classic worldwide collector. Expect some faults in the mix, considering that this is an old-time original holding. Excellent basis for expansion without having to worry about modern frivolous issues. The album itself is of high quality and in very nice condition. Five more similar albums, covering the remaining stamp-issuing countries to follow in subsequent auctions. The next volume to be listed in Bidboard 1908 contains British Empire from New Guinea to Zululand. Consignor's 2019 Scott $13,221.45 =
