Extraordinary specialized collection of "Ministry" overprinted Official Department Stamps, 1913-1938 issues. Some ageing/toning in places, and identified by the previous owner by printing dates, watermarks and types with many constant and non-constant plate varieties and overprint flaws noted. Overprint varieties are also to be found throughout including with the overprint doubled, shifted and inverted, plus paper varieties such as pre-printing paper folds. All varieties have been valued as basic stamps only. 745 stamps hinged to pages in a slim black vintage springback album, a scarce opportunity to acquire an intact old-time collection. 2021 Scott US$960.15 =
