Useful study/collection of 1870-1885 period South African colonial issues, mint and used with some faults, all laid out on a double-sided stockpage. On the first side is an apparent mix of genuine stamps and forgeries, all identified by the knowledgeable previous owner. The second page consists entirely of reprints and forgeries on imperf, rouletted and perforated papers, and includes forged cancels as well as overprints. A superb reference lot for both the student of forgeries and the intrepid South Africa specialist! Estimate
