Turkey, 1863-1955, the excellent specialized collection in 4 volumes, formed by the late George McNamara. A remarkable collection of this area, with great depth and value in the early issues, collected over many years by an experienced and very careful professional philatelist.
Volume 1 contains issues from 1863 to 1892. The Tughra issues catalog approximately $5000. The Duloz issues are very extensive and nearly complete plus varieties and blocks, with a catalog value well over $4000. The Emp. Ottoman issues from 1876 are also well represented with a total catalog value estimated at over $2000.
Volume 2 contains issues of 1901 to 1916, including the Tughra issues and newspaper stamp overprints, the 1914 commemorative issue (yes including the 200pi high value), and quite a range of the 1916 crescent and Arabic "1331" overprints. Total catalog value for this volume is approximately $7500.
Volume 3 contains issues of the late Empire and the early Republic (including the "Turkey in Asia" issues of the Ankara Govt.), from 1915 to 1930, plus Hatay in 1939. Catalog value for this volume is conservatively estimated at well over $3,000.
Volume 4 contains a few more modern issues, plus back-of-the-book including Postal Tax and Officials.
Fully imaged on the web, each volume in a separate PDF. A valuable collection with many stamps and sets cataloging $50 to $550, and with enough varieties to keep a specialist occupied for months if not years. Total catalog value is estimated at over $21,000, plus covers and unlisted varieties.
Estimate $2,000 - 3,000.
