All China Sampler. A well presented collection of Repiblic of China (1905-1949) and People's Republic of China stamps (1949-1965) with most of the value in the PRC era. The RoC is catalogued by Scott and Chan numbers (Chan on top, Scott underneath); the PRC by Scott numbers only. Several perf and paper varieties that are only listed in Chan are noted (these varieties are valued as standard Scott). RoC provincial issues are represented (eg. Ki-Hei, Sinkiang), as well as Communist provincial issues, Japanese occupation, air mail and postage dues. RoC era stamps are mostly used; PRC era stamps are both used and unused, with reprints noted and valued accordingly. An excellent backbone for further completion, with many low-value stamps still outstanding and/or for further specialization. Also included are 4 Vario sheets containing different kinds of used RoC multiples (pairs, strips of 3, 4 etc), blocks (of 4, 6+ etc), and margin/corner copies (including a numbered corner plate block and an East China margin multiple of 12). The multiples have Scott and Chan numbers, with paper, perf and width variations noted; basic values (ie 4 x single cat for a block) are identified for a few, but most are unvalued. Finally, this lot includes a Vario sheet with approx 100 RoC singles and a 1998 Stanley Gibbons China catalogue. Expect the usual small faults in a lot of this kind, particularly on RoC material (rough perfs, glue remainder, etc). Owner's Scott 2021 cat as follows: RoC US$390.00; PRC US$866.00; valued multiples US$160.00; unvalued multiples and extra singles cat estimate of US$50.00. Total 2021 Scott US$1,466.00=
