CLEARANCE SALE

Series “123”. These are high value classic collections of early stamps, generally running up to only the 1920's. These were put together by a very serious British collector. Many countries have been broken down into small time periods, both to help make the collections more affordable and to help collectors focus in on filling just certain specific small periods of time in their own collection. Many of these lots will have duplication of some stamps of both a mint and used copies, as well as various shades. These lots come from an old Scott International album with well-worn pages. Terrific classic stamps to help enhance your own collection.

Series "148". Germany and Colonies. Mint and used stamps to 1990 from a six volume collection, with some collections on Scott Specialty pages and others on Minkus pages.

Series "161". These unusual individual country collections have been organized from a large stock of individual stamps and sets, and placed in glassines. We have been offering these collections for several years now from this huge hoard of stamps. These collections are loaded with mostly used very fine stamps and sets. The glassines are reminiscing of when we were kids and used to buy packets of stamps. However, these are of much higher quality, no duplication, with lots of value. These lots were priced using a 2011 Scott Catalogue, and thus may be really good buys compared to today’s prices.

Series "187". Modest world wide collections from a 22 volume Scott International collection. Pages and stamps range from the classics to 1976. Some countries have stamps mounted on blank pages up to the early 1990's. This is the lifetime collection. which I had the privilege to purchase, from the estate of a customer of ours.

Series "241". Selection of sets and individual stamps from Africa. These stamps are from the duplicate stock of an American collector who lived and worked in South Africa.

description for modern US: Series "254". Selection of recent, mostly mint strips, booklets and panes of United States stamps, plus some used classic material. A great selection of US stamps to help you fill in any blank spots that may be missing in your collection. This vast modern U.S. collection was painstakenly put together by a collector who spent hours each week at the USPS Philatelic window here is Tucson. With some issues he strived to collect every possible position with mint blocks of four with margin inscriptions such as "Mr. Zip", etc. Almost all this material is post office fresh, MNH.

Series "258". Immense world wide collection of thousands of mint and used stamps, going to the mid-1990's, packed in 19 volumes (mostly Harris). Stamps are Very Fine throughout, many mint are Never Hinged. Og.

Series "282". A fabulous collection of Italy and States and Occupations. One of the most comprehensive specialized collection that we have had the privilege to sell. Originally mounted in a Scott Specialty album. Surprising are many nice four margin classic stamps which are genuine and sound -- easily worth full catalog or more, such as Modena, Sardinia (specialized for the scarce shades). Selectivity in centering and cancellations are evident throughout, and well above that usually encountered in the Italian area. Obviously damaged to-the-eye have not been counted, nor have obvious reprints or fakes been counted (marked "NC" for "Not Counted").

Series "301" and "320" are on dealer "104" cards. A nice group of individual stamps and sets from a dealer's stock selection. Each card has the Scott catalog number and value of the stamp written on it. These stamps have been in our inventory for awhile now. When we updated these values several years ago we were using the 2005 Scott Catalog. While there may be some exceptions, generally catalogue prices are now higher, so these stamps are even a better buy. For the most part these are Very Fine stamps and there should be few, if any, faults. These stamps were carefully selected by the original dealer for resale. The majority of mint stamps are either MNH or lightly hinged, and a few issues are used. We have tens of thousands of these dealer cards and will be offering a nice range of good individual stamps each month to help you fill in some blank spaces in your collection. These lots are reasonably priced for the quality of the material and will probably not be discounted in future sales lists.

Series "363". Collections from a wonderful completely intact 6 volume Scott International collection to 1969. Collections are as neat as a pin and Very Fine loaded with better stamps. Thousands in all with better British, Germany and Area, Italy and Area, and much more. Choice quality, choice country collections.

Series "368". An interesting, low value collection mounted on Harris album pages, being sold by country. We did not catalog the stamps, but merely assigned a minimum value per stamp. Contains mostly used stamps plus a lot of CTO's, but there are some scattered mint as well. All the stamps are in clear, plastic mounts. Most collectons range from the 1880s to the 1970s. These should be interesting "junk lots" to sort through for a lot of beautiful, but low value stamps.

Series "390". Wonderful comprehensive mostly mint collection to 1995. Highly complete mint & used in the 19th century. Then complete (or virtually so) from 1890-1940 and then virtually complete (often MNH) from 1940-1995, including very strong semi-postals. Beautiful collections.

Series "394". A valuable and terrific collection in an unexpected format. This collection is housed in six Harris Standard albums but is loaded with thousands of mint and used stamps from the late 1880's to late 1960's. It is nicely organized with many not frequently seen stamps from the far flung corners of the globe. The original collector added extra pages to make up for the short comings of the Harris Albums. There is considerable value in these country collections.

He said that he was never really that interested in stamp collecting, but his Aunt who lived in Caracas, Venezuela continued to send him mint stamps as they were issued over the years, and then expaned her sendings to include other counrtries. He graduated from the University of Arizona, College of Architecture and practiced here in Arizona. Over the years he organized the mint stamps by placing them on black stock cards or pages. They were well taken of, and there is some really nice material.

Series "432". Worldwide Mint & Used Collections from five Minkus Global Albums. Moderately filled with British and French Colonies, South and Central America, Africa and Asia.

Series "477". Wonderful old horde of collections purchased from a gentleman here in Tucson. He made dozens of purchases over the past 30 to 40 years from auction firms in Europe as well as in the U.S., buying complete collections, mostly in albums, but also a few stock books here and there. He was fascinated with the beauty and history of stamps but was more a purchaser of stamp collections, than a collector, as the material of his that I have thus far been able to purchase, was never touched or rearranged, but simply stored away over the years. This is a very fine used stamp collection neatly arranged on the pages. Look these descriptions over carefully to see if the stamps could be incorporated into your own collection. You won't be disappointed.

Series "479". Huge worldwide collection to 1940 in 14 Scott International Albums. This is one of the neatest and cleanest collections that I have seen in a long, with many unusual, not often seen hard to find stamps.
