Collection 1938-2012, neatly hinged in a Minkus brand album. A "packed full" book containing 2992 stamps and 107 souvenir sheets, with the vast majority of being MINT. The pre-decimal (pre 1966) material is mostly used and is made up of 218 stamps with a Scott catalogue value of US$649.55. Once the decimal period begins, the stamps shift to almost all mint with a wide range of topicals as found with this ever-popular country. The mint stamps are lightly hinged in place, and will come free quite easily. Note, the pages are not complete in the album and there is a gap in the 1994-2002 issues, thus conservatively value at only the postage value of the usable mint stamps. Total face value AUS$1751.67 at today’s rate =
