Another interesting feature in this accumulation is the lack of duplication, more often than not "one of a kind" as bought on a new issue service. Other areas include yet further Switzerland with buy-price "embroidery" 5 fr, mint as well as used, "Epreuves de Luxe" inc France, some better issues for many of the African countries again with printing numbers running into the low thousands, especially the m/s and the imperfs, all in complete series. Useful sections include booklets and non-Scott listed, also Australia should also be mentioned not just for the stamps of high face value but also in the Howard Florey presentation pack with no less than a 50 dollar currency bill, as part of a joint banknote/stamp promotion. Other premium items in the m/s were particularly strong in the Netherlands, loaded with good material and yet again the Swiss which the collector clearly had a penchant for with many year sets running right up to 2003 including other desirable buy-price items such as the ‘Choco Suisse’ etc. This is a great lot for a dealer or a collector looking to fill many spaces in their albums with elusive material, as often is the case for these years.

Another book focuses on France again including premium, not just commems and the miniature sheets within the booklets but also good definitives, well worth investigating with Yvert, in this book alone there are over 100 booklets all different. Another book is very diverse with lots of British Commonwealth, Switzerland with pro juventutes, Jamaica first QEII, Belgium with the early better red cross of 1953, interesting KUT with early high value sterling booklets. Pitcairn and many other islands including earlier defins well worth investigating in a Gibbons. In this book are about 130 there. The last volume focuses on mostly Scandinavia with dozens of Norway, a little Andorra with se-tenants and various other countries etc. There must be around 600 booklets here in total, without considering the stack of commemoratives and definitives with many ofthem mint series and definitive gutter pairs.

Better obvious countries include Ascension, British Antarctic Territory, Brunei, Cocos Islands , Fiji, Greece, Jamaica, Mauritius, Netherlands, Seychelles, South Georgia, etc. The retail value here will undoubtedly run into many thousands of dollars. Much potential present and plenty of eye appeal for a wide variety of topics, especially on the British Commonwealth.	Est. $750-1000

2539	/		MASSIVE WORLDWIDE SOUVENIR &: MINIATURE SHEET HOLDING a very exciting stock of worldwide souvenir and miniature sheets, housed in about 5000 presentation cards, with virtually everything identified in by Scott number as well as price. However the latter often needs revision upwards, as random inspection will quickly reveal against the catalogues. This is a very colorful stock with lots of good countries and Topicals, the overwhelming majority are mint. Many a time the presentation cards have 2 or 3 each of the miniature sheets, occasionally up to half dozen but that’s about it. We estimate therefore that there must be in the order of 8000 of these, quite possibly more. Lots of better countries noted include PRC, New Zealand, Cyprus, Iceland, Palau, Montserrat, San Marino, South Korea, Luxemburg, Togo, British Africa and French Africa of many kinds i.e. independent as well as colonial particularly in the former. The new issue and replacement cost of this huge hoard would be a small fortune. The dealer who formed this, now retired, was in business for several decades and this is reflected in the tremendous variety of what is here. Certainly the most pleasant feature is the lack of duplication and the variety of many pleasant countries only a few of which have been already mentioned. For us the easiest way to get a handle on what is here is to make an average. We have put this in very conservatively in a little over 50cts each but this could well be worth a deal more. Certainly the viewer that spends time on this will have a tremendous opportunity to appreciate the full scope of what is present. If you are fortunate enough to buy this within our valuation range, this will be a bargain opportunity. Very much a recommended viewing especially for a dealer who is looking for a good original stock that is almost "turn-key" save the need for re pricing. Don’t hesitate to put this on your list lots to view.[v]	Est. $5000-6000
2540	/		WORLDWIDE HOLDING WITH STRONG NEW ISSUES TO 2000 an exciting accumulation, literally "A-Z" alphabetically organized in their individual file folders, A-Z, stuffed full of material. Some letters are obviously far more intense than others, however there are hardly any of these file folders that do not have a potential retail value between several hundreds or in some cases, a few thousands dollars each. One of the main features about this holding is the tremendous diversity of material with lots of good topics and simply items that this dealer liked! Yes, there is good saleable modern series such as Disney and wildlife, yet as importantly there are wedges of face value for all kinds of different countries in complete series, bulging in these file folders . The years cover much of the 20th century mostly the second half, there is even a little 2000 –surprisingly there are small sections periodically in the file folders of better pre WW2. However the substantial part of the value with is from the 1980s and the 1990s. Nothing seems to be in large quantity, more often than not a few to half a dozen of each particularly with the sheetlets, miniature sheets, se-tenants, booklets as well as regular issues as available at the time and held back by the dealer. Take any letter of the alphabet to get a ‘feel’ of what is here… for example starting with letter ‘A’, countries such as Antigua, Austria, Argentina, Albania, Australia and many others. Birds are a common theme and of course many others such as flowers, mosaics, military, uniforms, artefacts, archaeology, etc. The next letter “B” also sports a bulging folder boasting countries such as Belarus, Belgium, Bahamas, British Antarctic Territories, Bulgaria and again many more, just like virtually every other letter. The letter ‘C’ is just as bulky and fascinating, stuffed with material galore, representing countries such as Christmas Islands, Canada, Columbia, Congo to name just a few. These first three sets the pace with virtually every other letter, interestingly the letters ‘G’ and ‘M’ had to be put into 2 thick file folders each and unsurprisingly the letters ‘Q’ and ‘X’ amalgamated. Other stronger countries include Ireland, Israel, Japan with considerable face value as well as premium sheets/ sheetlets i.e. athletic issues as well as earlier UPU 1949 right up to the year 2000 with very colorful ‘achievements of the 20th century’ miniature sheets, Korea with lots of miniature sheets Luxemburg, Latvia 1939 m/s, lots of Macau, much Micronesia with themes such as space, fauna, butterflies – you name it, its probably here! Monaco, Montserrat with Bob Marley as also Presley seen for Palau, St Vincent, etc. Time just does not permit a further detailed description, save that there are many thousands of easily saleable complete series and will keep you working for months! How to value this? Well of course there are 26 letters in the alphabet and we think that a little under $200 each there is huge potential here for marketing. Please take a few at random, certainly a thorough viewing is much recommended.	Est. $5000-6000
2541			WORLDWIDE COLLECTION, 19TH &: 20TH CENTURY TO ABOUT 1960 many thousands of stamps here housed in three thick Scott Internationals organized by years, mint and used. Volume 1 being ‘A-Z’ for the 100 year period of 1840 to 1940 and an extremely impressive and valuable book with virtually every page containing something to offer and a catalogue potential that will be absolutely gigantic. We have no hesitation in projecting many thousands Scott retail in this book alone - take a look at Canada from 1859 Beaver and Large Centss onwards through to the $1 Parliament and various other good series of the 1920s and 1930s. Useful Denmark, Finland, France from Ceres onwards, lots of South America, India, Italy including better sets of 1930s, Netherlands with many good semi-postals again from the 1930s and earlier, better Newfoundland, Poland including stratosphere m/sheet, Russia from the Tsarist issues right up to better complete series of the 1930s with the pictorial athletics, underground/metro, Third Congress, better airmails loaded with good commems. Also Sweden, Switzerland all the way through to Zanzibar. Volume 2 which is 1940 to 1950, equally loaded from Aden through to Zanzibar, again often with a repeat of the better countries mentioned earlier which seems to be the collectors favorites. However take note in this album of China and Croatia as well. Volume 3 1950 through to 1960, again crammed with material, with for example Japan with the purple goose and the 1952/55 definitives mint complete series to 100 yen and of course the other countries this collector liked, especially Italy with key commems such as telecommunications, Unesco, Firenze and no empty spaces. Also good British Commonwealth in general, similarly lots of Russia in a well rounded worldwide representation of these years. A vast collection with great potential, ideal for any dealer looking for pre 1960, particularly pre-1940, which is very probably the best book. Any brave individual who still collects ‘worldwide’ as a generalist without the need for ultra-modern, will much enjoy viewing this substantial collection.[v]	Est. $5000-6000
2542			WORLDWIDE COLLECTION housed in 10 Scott Blue Internationals loaded with thousands of mint &: used stamps, the better countries, this collection contains an impressive amount of material which is alphabetically in order. Volume 1 "A-B", for example Angola from the 19th century crown issues onwards with a solid range of material leading on to turn of the century "Republica" overprints, followed by Ascension KGVI S. Wedding and the definitives to 10sh, various Bavaria from imperfs, etc. Book 2 with the balance of "B"s and nearly all the "C"s impressive containing countries such as Bolivia from the 19th century onwards, other BC to 10sh high values, as well as British Central Africa ‘crown and sun’ classics to 4r, useful China from 19th century onwards, etc. Book 3 features strong Croatia, Danzig, Egypt from the pyramid issues and much more. Book 4 has French Polynesia, Gold Coast QV with a magnificent cancel 1sh, as well as good KEVII both 1902 and 1907 to 1sh, GB including penny black, QV 2/6d, 1883 5d green mint, useful KEVII followed by KGV Seahorses, better KGVI, S.

Book 9 features Switzerland and Sweden, very interesting Serbia classics well worth spending time on. Lastly book 10 which encompasses letters "T - Z" with countries such as Turkey, Vatican, Venezuela all the way through to Zululand. For some reason unknown, this collector placed Gibraltar after the "Z"s , it too is good, from the first QV issues onwards, up to QEII including the 1960 definitives to £1,1967 Ships definitives to £1, etc. Highly worthwhile, put this one down as a priority to view.	Est. $5000-6000
2543			WORLDWIDE "NEW ISSUE" ACCUMULATION. Stock of many thousands of sets, S/S, etc. mostly in glassines or still in agency new issue shipments in what appears to be almost no order, heavy in Brit.

Est. $5000-7500
2544			WORLDWIDE CONDENSED COLLECTIONS here, a wannabe dealer who over the years took many a collection that were bought at auction, often from us, stripped them down from the album pages. Then he proceeded to cram them ‘stamp on stamp’, often with dozens to the line, mint and used with loads of complete series and in the process making a far more difficult viewing. There are many thousands of stamps in each book. Now offered to us intact, it has been requested by the vendor to auction them all together. Some of the countries represented in these 8 substantial books include Malta QV to QEII with intermediary shilling values and various commems complete, Monaco with early franc values, as well as later high value defins, commems galore and topical miniature sheets, Netherlands with much semi-postals from the 1930s complete and a plethora of series through to the 1950s and 60s as well as m/s, Norway from Oscar and posthorns, Austria imperfs leading on yet again to semi-postals, with several dozens if not hundreds of different series here as well. Useful Portugal leading up to more m/s, Sweden, Switzerland, Spain inc the ‘grenade thrower’ 10p green and dozens of other series, similarly with Turkey etc etc. Other books with Egypt, French and Spanish colonies, South West Africa with earlier high values to 10sh with bi-lingual blocks of KGV, Canada, South and Central America with much interest in Brazil, Chile, Uruguay and fascinating back of the book. Western European is strong across the board, especially France with better semi-postal series from the good years of 1940s and 50s, Great Britain, Ireland, Italy, you name the country, it is probably here. This is a very well rounded valuable accumulation with much merit, even Eastern Europe with Russia for example from the Tsarist issues onwards and hundreds of series running from the 1930s through to the 1960s, including better. Lots of Peoples Republic of China with many better series as well etc. Time consideration does not permit further description other than mentioning the obvious, this is strictly for stamp workaholics!	Est. $5000-6000

2598	/		WORLDWIDE BOOKLETS HOLDING an extraordinary range of material, mostly mint. The accumulation consists of 10 substantial books and a box. Each volume is organized by country and very little duplication, perhaps a few of each and more often than not on key countries such as Thailand - in fact one book is dedicated to Thailand and another 4 books for Scandinavia of which Sweden predominates and this country alone has about 450 booklets, with many premium, i.e. not only is there a very substantial face value content running into several hundreds of dollars, also far better booklets that will require a Facit to see the depth of what is here- for example ‘Folkskolan 100 years’, ‘Swedish Press’, ‘Esaias Tegner’, ‘Erik Gustaf Geiger’, ‘Sparbanksroerelsen’, ‘Pioneer Jubilee’, ‘Lingiaden’, ‘Christopher Polhem’, ‘Idrottsrorelsen’. Other Scandinavian countries include choc-a-bloc Denmark and Iceland, again not only high new issue content but also premium. Some volumes have a wide variety of countries, for example booklets from Greece, The Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, Hungary, Monaco, Italy, Spain, Chile, Jugoslavia, Portugal, Cyprus, Israel with the early coin series onwards, etc- all of these just in one book, with well over 120 items. Othe volumes include Ireland, interesting booklets but also gutter pairs for commems and even postage dues. Eastern Europe very interesting not just for unusual Czechoslovakia, East Germany. Please note that in every book the prices – there are hardly any prices in the box - are for new issue service or at best an old catalogue figure, giving only an indication of what is here. Plus two books of British Commonwealth, with well over 200 booklets, with, Zambia, Monsterrat, Gibraltar, British Africa countries with low printing numbers like St Helena, Ascension, Seychelles, etc. Also present a box full of booklets waiting to be incorporated into the main run of the books. This box contains over fifty glassines, many of these are stuffed full of different booklets and can contain up to a dozen or so and we conservatively estimate that there are at about 200 booklets in this box alone., with Independent French Africa, some of the other Scandinavian countries such as Finland, Norway and many others from all over the world. There is such a wealth of material present with about 1500 booklets, notwithstanding the extra value with premium commems, definitives, postage dues, gutter pairs, etc, housed in the Irish book. This is a very colorful accumulation containing a wide variety of non-Scott listed items as well, some of which are not often seen on the market today, especially the earlier Scandinavia. Most booklets here would retail around $10, very few less than $5 and certainly there are a good number that would go for $30 especially in Scandinavia . This is an excellent opportunity for a dealer looking to replenish stocks inexpensively. Similarly a collector who wants a worldwide well-rounded booklet holding with little duplication will find this a difficult lot to beat.[v]	Est. $3000-4000
