Well over 1500 mint and used stamps as well as covers in three stockbooks, mostly mid-20th century with a useful range of mint never hinged sets, french Colonies from imperf eagles onwards, etc. The best however is probably the postal history from classics onwards (incl. 'B' under neck Napoleon), with around 100 covers including an excellent 1940s/'50s correspondence with philatelic motive, for example the 1000fr Paris bridges SG.1059 coin datee (corner date), 1954 airmail high values (top three values of the set of four) in corner plate number examples on separate covers, better charity issues and much more. High catalogue here on that which is listed, there is also an interesting range of back of the book with 1930s and '40s labels, 19th century revenues, advertising, etc. Will benefit considerably from organisation and better presentation.
Sold for £140
Estimated at £200 - £250
