o 1857-1920, used selection, all premium quality, V.F. to X.F., 56 all different, all inexpensive (catalog values range from a few cents to at most $70), but all with outstandingly choice centering and mostly neat light cancels.

These "little gems" include: 1857 issue: #35; Banknotes: #146, 156, 161, 178, 179182, 188, 206, 207, 213; 1890's issues: #219, 219D, 221, 222, 234, 256, 264, 267, 271, 282C, 283, 284, 286, 290; 1901 issue: #302, 304, 305, 306, 307, 309, 319; Wash-Franklins etc: 331, 332, 334, 337, 370, 390, 397, 398, 401, 404, 410, 417, 421, 425, 428, 430, 435, 437, 466, 469, 483, 484, 531, 534, 547.

/ 1861-1992, six volume Platinum Series collection, not a lot in the first volume but more as each volume continues, volume 5 is nearly complete; the catalog value does add up and a few noteworthy items are a Sc #231 n.h., #257 (no gum), #412 pr, #C1-6, we have imaged all of the real catalog value on our website and the rest is more or less postage in the more modern era - of particular value are the Platinum albums themselves which retail for $1000+ (we noted a set exactly like this without any stamps sold on eBay in January for $780; a rare find indeed!
