Old time MOURNING cover collection, 107 covers (many with enclosures) dating from 1822 to 1955 arranged on stockpages in an older cloth covered binder. These black-borders envelopes were often used to express or notify of death, loss, grieving or mourning of a loved one. This lot spans the globe, with better items throughout including stampless, registered and lots of Queen Victoria frankings. Large groups of Mourning covers are seldom offered and it has been many years since this group has seen the light of day. Estimate =
