The final part of the lifelong collector's thematic collection, 1000s of mint and MNH stamps, mostly in sets, as well as lots of miniature sheets to 2012, beautifully written-up and illustrated in seven loose-leaf albums. One album is dedicated to GB (well over £500 face value), high Euro face value in the rest of the books. Plenty of good sets and singles including France 1929 10fr La Rochelle (SG.474, cat.£140), 1947 gull over Paris 500fr MNH, Germany 1950 Lubeck Marienkirche, Portugal 1945 castles (SG.989/996, cat.£225), etc. A charming collection representing countless hours of painstaking presentation.
