Specialized collection of Postal Tax Stamps from 1948 to 1954, mint and used with significant NH, consisting of singles, pairs, strips and blocks with perforating and watermark varieties galore. Standout items include a pre-printing corner foldover error, lower left block of 4 of #RA3, a part-imperf upper right corner block of 10, and two MH examples of the red overprint (18.7mm wide) on imperf singles for use in the French Zone at Wuerttemberg (#8NRA1). A phenomenal start to a detailed study of these very small and often overlooked stamps. For identification purposes the Michel catalogue is essential, and photocopies of relevant pages (in German only) have been provided. Estimate =
