Series "147". Old time collections from a battered Scott International album. This collection was purchased many years ago, but this one album somehow got misplaced, and was just rediscovered. Some of the countries have minor duplication as was the practice some years ago.

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 "203". This series contains both U.S. and worldwide material.

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 "281". A home made collection of a few select foreign countries. The majority of these couintry collections are mounted on 8 1/2 by 11 stock cards, or in stockbooks. Thus these are "hingless" collections of mint and used stamps, although many stamps may have been previously hinged. These are a carefully selected collection of stamps from a gentlemen who retired to Green Valley, Arizona.

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 "380".

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 "391". Germany and Area. Beautiful collection of thousands to 1960 from a Scott specialty album. Excellent Colonies and Offices, highly complete states, Germany proper virtually complete with very strong Empire, excellent Third Reich and Bund, and highly complete Semi-postals, good airs, and mostly complete French Zones and Berlin.

Series "427"

Series "436".

Series "437". Seven vol. Scott Int'l. Collection. Contains over 32,000 worldwide before 1962. A mixture of mint and used, but does have some really nice mint sets for many of the countries. Neat and clean country collections.

Series 438. German material including occupations, plus some other interesting countries. The German related material is expertly catalogued using both Scott and Michel German catalogues for varieties not listed in Scott.

Series "447".

Series "453". Collections from 26 volumes of Scott Int'l. with over $140,000 catalogue value. Beautiful material.

Series "469". Nice and clean collections from 24 Scott specialty albums for years 1860-1990.

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. 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 time, with many unusual, not often seen, hard to find stamps. All stamps, whether mint or used are mounted in clear mounts on the album pages, making for beautiful country collections.

Series "513". Beautiful mainly pre 1940 collection, although some countries run up to the early 1960's. They are organized on quadrille pages with the scott catalog number written below each stamp. There is tremendous value in these country collections. Each quadrille page with stamps on both sides are mounted in a clear plastic sleeve to help protect the stamps. However, we did notice that some of the stamps are sticking to the page probably due to the way it was stored over the years. However, the stamps and the hinge can be easily loosened off the page. These are still wonderful collections, with lots of hard to find older stamps.

A nice range of United States Mint stamps.

Series "524".

Fantastic Mint collection on Scott pre-1930 collections.
