Excellent mint collection in a boxed SG hingeless album, starting with a useful range of Province issues, followed by large queens to 15c, 1870-90 small queens to 10c, 1893 widowheads (50c unused), 1897 jubilee to 50c (5c thin, 10c unused), 1897-98 maple leaf set, 1898 leaves and numerals set (20c paper adhesion on reverse), followed by the Edward VII set with most attractive 50c fresh and well-centred, the Quebec set remarkably without the usual thins though the 10c is without gum, again it is the top value that is a stand-out example. Further highlights in the 20th century include the 1915 War Tax ovpts set, coils with no empty spaces, 1928-29 pictorials, etc, all the way to comprehensive officials etc. This along with the second volume with issues through to the 1980s. Catalogue approx. £14,000, though naturally there is some mixed condition on the earlier issues. A highly recommended viewing.

Sold for £750
Estimated at £1,000 - £1,500
