Ancient Album Duo. Two old-time albums, one a 19th century German manufactured album in surprisingly decent condition, only containing a hundred or so stamps but all issues before 1897. The other album is a battered "Strand" album containing a useful collection of several thousand stamps, mostly up to mid-20th century issues (some more recent, probably added by the next generation of collector), with useful Norway, China, early Korea, a set of forged $1.00-$5.00 Canada 1897 Jubilees and decent British Commonwealth (no GB, Canada or Provinces), British Africa being well represented. While there weren't any pound values noted, enough multiple shilling high values were seen to bulk up the total catalogue value of the lot. A careful sort will most certainly produce a good number of decent philatelic finds, particularly for the collector of pre-1950 British Commonwealth. Thousands of dollars of total catalogue value here! Estimate =
