Lovely and extensive unused / mint collection, 1847-1971, in mounts in a Scott National hingeless album.

Other than a few questionable coils (not counted anyway), most appear to be sound collectable stamps. A nice lot for the dealer looking for fresh attractive-appearing material to resell, or a collector looking to fill lots of spaces - especially earlier spaces - at once, generally Fine to Very Fine with many Very Fine. Scott $17,000 ++.
Estimate $4,000 - 6,000.
