Q96 o9w A world collection in three old and battered binders. At first sight, the collection looks
merely good, but studied attention reveals a steady stream of single stamps, sets, and part sets
which are better (and others which are not so much valuable as unusual). Seems to cover only
the period approx. 1900 to 1940. Majority used, but a fair number mint, and the condition
overall is fine. Certainly strongest in Europe, but still with useful ranges of Overseas and
Commonwealth. (Some thousands of stamps) ( .. .. £1,000 to £1,500.
o9t Not for the fainthearted, this carton is stuffed with pages, packets, and so on, with a huge
array of world stamps. Many hours of sorting. Apparently originally from a foreign source,

ation. Also others in tins, small stockbooks, etc. Mainly used Europe. ( .. 75.

box. Thousands of loose cheap stamps in packets, two old (1950s) Michel catalogues with
hundreds of stamps between the pages, some duplicated used world on stockcards (up to
1970s), etc. Mixed periods. ( .. .. .. .. .. 50.

books, envelopes/packets, box of RAF covers, binders, junior albums, etc. (1,000s) ( 50.
o9t Mixed big box. Several shoeboxes of packets of USA, Hungary, Austria, UK and many
others. Although bulk is cheap stamps, by no means rubbish, and many odd bits to pick over.
Another good sort. (Many 1,000s) ( .. .. .. .. 50.
o9t Two plastic tubs with a duplicated stock of singles, sets/part sets made up in packets and pre-
sented ready for sale. Issues included up to 1970s – mint, used, and c.t.o., with many thema-
tics and much from the more prolific countries. Useful stock in the right hands. (1,000s) ( 50.

of bundleware, some 100s of Canada perfins, a few UK company opts., kiloware, etc. Some

albums/stockalbums. (1,000s) ( .. .. .. .. .. 50.
o9t World remainders in two old fat and heavy Scott’s Junior albums, plus another fifteen mixed
albums, binders and stockalbums with varied contents. Much foreign, and nothing very
modern. Heavy lot, worth ploughing through. (1,000s) ( .. .. 50.

Much common, some bits of interest. Many foreign. (1,000s) ( .. .. 40.

o9t Carton with many thousands of off-paper stamps mainly sorted into envelopes, arranged in
shoeboxes and similar. Also mixed other odds. Probably covers certain countries only, but
difficult to qualify this without spending more time than we intend. Should either be viewed,
or a real shot-in-the-dark for a blind bid. In some of this and the following lots there are
some older, some have large numbers of QE used West Indies. ( .. .. 35.

Use this number to make bids or to check on prices after the auction – or any time you want to speak to us – for the cost of a local rate phone call.Posting things to us ? Many people now find that when they go to their local Post Office, a boring white printed label is used rather than postage stamps. Some Postmasters seem to give the impression that there is no choice in the matter. Be advised that if you say you want traditional adhesive postage stamps before they start to weigh or process your package, they should be able to do this for you. And of course, you can always use your own stamps (again, if you need them to tell you the price, make sure that you tell them that you don’t want a label – before the package is processed).
This of course applies not just to material being posted to us, but to anybody. We have noticed recently that some of the charities from which we buy kiloware are getting fewer stamps, and these in lesser variety. Do your bit to help stamp collectors, dealers, and charities !
